This is the most current published work discussing a style of redware pottery that is found in America and the South of England. The author hints if an examination of the western coast of Africa was conducted there would be evidence of this style of pottery also. Complete with maps, an explanation of seventeenth-century pottery making techniques, and b & w photos of significant wares.

This book is a prize. As As an American (or as I've heard Canadians say it, "United Stateser") who has only recently started to explore science fiction written by Australians, Canadians, etc., it is refreshing to encounter the subtle difference in viewpoint that suffuses these stories.

Not to mention that they are great stories, well-written, varied and imaginative.

This sun really brightens the horizon. I'm really excited to have a whole new body of world literature to explore.

Grant analyizes the Bible from a structural standpoint - the depth of his study has led to very important understanding of the subtle elements of God's Word and it's message to us with out getting fanciful or overly imaginative - his commentary sort of "proves itself". For study or reading it has potentialy life influencing insights into our relationship to God as revealed in His Word.

David Craig breaks down the sometimes overwhelming task/joy of performing songs into manageable chunks. His analysis of songs at the beginning of the book is priceless. After determining the Who-what why-when-where-how facts, the singer is guided through creating a subtext that personalizes and animates the performance, making it truly something worth watching/hearing. Highly recommended to singers of all genres, although Mr. Craig's focus is on musical theater. Answers the eternal question, "is this song (trip) necessary?" with a resounding "YES!"

If you can't find at least one grant that you meet the requirements for in this book, you didn't look at the book at all! The subject index is indespensible in narrowing down the grants. I was looking for grants for our local Humane Society, so I looked up "Animal". I found listings for twenty-eight grants geared toward Animal Care and Animal Rights. I looked up each grant by it's Accession number, read the details of the grant and narrowed it down to eight that I could submit to, add that to the seven general "Non-Profits" and I've got detailed information on fifteen grants, all in the matter of one evening of looking through this very detailed book. Listings for each grant include all contact information, web site addresses if available, email addresses and requirements/restrictions. You've heard of "How-To's", well this book is a "Where-To"!

Far from it. Many were not happy with how the government was handling the war OR the fact there was a war. The book starts with a timeline of the events before and during the American Revolution AND a chapter dealing with the relationship between the press and the government. Then, after the foundation is poured the book starts to build up the case by dealing with how the public, via the letters in British newspapers, show their support or lack of support. They react to the American's petitions to the Crown for peace, the question of Peace or War, worries about trade, the French and the aftermath. Slightly over 200 pages and worth it. MUST for History lover or anybody interested in American Revolutions.

Zalin Grant's "Over The Beach" is an account of fighter squadron 162 from the aircraft carrier USS Oriskany during the Vietnam war. Grant does a masterful job of blending the history, with the real lives of the people who were a part of that history.

The reader feels the palpable emotions of the pilots as they "crossed over the beach" on their way to targets in Hanoi and Haiphong. The squadron was incredibly successful, but with that success came great loss. Many pilots were shot down over North Vietnam where there was almost no chance of rescue. The reader also hears from those pilots who became prisoners.

Grant incorporates the history of the air conflict into the book as well. Johnson, Nixon, McNamara, and Kissinger all weigh heavily into this account. The politics of the conflict led to a war fought on confusing terms. But this doesn't read like some history text.

From the terror of carrier landings to the wild frat boy parties aboard the Oriskany, this book covers it all. From the adulterous behavior of many of the piots to the gut-wrenching roller coaster of emotions suffered by an MIA's wife, this book does not hold any punches. It may be hard to find this book (some libraries may have it) but it is one of the finest (and personal) accounts of carrier warfare in Vietnam I have ever read.

"The Papers of Ulysses S. Grant" is a project begun in 1962 for the purpose of publishing all the known letters written by Ulysses S. Grant. Volume one was published in 1967 and there are now twenty-four volumes in the series. People who follow Grant's career are aware of the inestimable value of this project. The Papers contain all known correspondence written by Grant and letters received by him. The editing of the series is unparalleled and the volumes represent primary source material at its apex.

Those who believe Grant was a "drunkard" or a "butcher" should read his own words, which show Grant's humor, pathos and unique personality. Masterfully edited by John Y. Simon, these volumes are a "must have" for anyone with an interest in U.S. Grant as a general, a politician and as a man
