Average review score: 

New Discovery in Biblical TextThis new version contains a discovery not found in other translations, one of them being "Tabernacle at the Appointed Place" which is rendered "tabernacle of the congregation" in the KJV. Combined with other usages in this version such as "Standing Place, Established Place and Elevated Place" the Bible tells a fascinating story of the movement of Divine authority from the Mosiac journeys to Jerusalem and beyond.

Italian Wines
Published in Paperback by Faber & Faber (December, 1989)
Average review score: 

great gripping and knowledgeable book that will help anyoneI think that the art of making wine has not only a superficial touch but also has to have the touch that has existed for centuries.The wines that have been made this way have to sell as they have the fragrance and the bouquet of old wines that have been made and nurtured through centuries. The making of these wines have not only the touch of the country but also that of the winemaker that gives it that extra flavour.

The Jack Ruby Trial Revisited: The Diary of Jury Foreman Max Causey
Published in Hardcover by University of North Texas Press (September, 2000)
Average review score: 

Comprises both Causey's diary and memoirMax Causey was a 35 year old administrative engineer when he was drafted into the jury that was to determine the legal fate of Jack Ruby for his murder of Lee Harvey Oswald, who was alleged to have been the assassin of President John F. Kennedy. Causey made the jury foreman and during the course of the trial kept a diary written in long-hand on a reporter's notebook. The diary begins with the second day of his jury duty and is filled with notes taken day-by-day as the trial continued, ending on Saturday, Mary 14, when the jury delivered its verdict. Causey then wrote a short epilogue. Later, he wrote a memoir based on that diary. Ably edited by John Dempsey, assistant professor of Journalism at the University of North Texas, The Jack Ruby Trial Revisited comprises both Causey's diary and memoir, augmented with editor's notes taken from the trial transcripts, books, newspaper and magazine articles and interviews with other surviving members of the jury. The Jack Ruby Trial Revisited is highly recommended reading for students of the JKF assassination controversy and the American criminal justice system.

Memories and Images: The World of Donald Vogel and Valley House Gallery
Published in Hardcover by University of North Texas Press (January, 2001)
Average review score: 

For students of American art historyMemories And Images: The World Of Donald Vogel And Valley House Gallery is the story of Donald Vogel who arrived in Dallas at the beginning of World War II after a sojourn at the Art Institute of Chicago and began a successful and explosive career in the arts. This is the story of the wealth that came with East Coast art dealers following the oil field trails throughout Oklahoma and Texas. During a tumultuous time of dubious art and fake old masters, Vogel was able to be a part of bringing fine art works to Dallas, beginning with the Betty McLean Gallery, and later to his own Valley House Gallery. Already established as a painter, Vogel became a critical and important outlet in Dallas for art dealers in the United States and Europe. An honor that has endured for the past fifty-eight years at the heart of the Dallas art scene. Memories And Images is an autobiography that is very highly recommended and informative reading for students of American art history in general, and the work and contributions of Donald Vogel and his Valley House Gallery in particular.

"My Husband's Trying to Kill Me!": A True Story of Money, Marriage, and Murderous Intent
Published in Hardcover by HarperCollins (September, 1992)
Average review score: 

Why women should be nun's!Well not really. But at least read this book in case. This book is about a woman who's husband hired a hitman to kill her but the story takes a weird turn when the hitman hired somebody else to do the dirty work who just so happens to be a undercover cop. Amazingly enough this book is actually really funny at times but you are going to have to read it yourself to find out why. I would recommend this to anyone who likes a good mystery.
