Interesting Hollywood perspective by the late great Logan. As with any Hollywood self-penned account, take a lot with a grain of salt. Regardless, it's a fun and fascinating look at 20th Century showbiz.

Alec Wagner is recovering from a bullet wound that has forced him to retire from the FBI. At the Cozy Rest Inn he rescues Sara Jameson and her baby, Rosie, from the snow. Alec has been moping about since his retirement and the mystery of Sara and Rosie pulls him out of his depression. With help from the innkeeper, Beatrice Nesbitt, and the other residents of the inn, Alec learns to trust Sara although he thinks she's possibly a criminal.

It's a sweet romance with a Christmas theme and a neat twist at the end.

Emily Anderson was a good school teacher at the small town of Aurora. Her mother passed away nine months ago and she had to manage the farm almost all by herself. Her dad, Gus, was a drunken man who she can't leaned on. One day, instead of her father in his bed drunk as always, she found a man , handsome one nonetheless, wounded by a shot and fainted. It turn out the man was a thief who stole lots of money from Mr. Harrison, the most powerful rancher of the town. Being held against her wish, she must save this outlaw and share a bedroom with him.

Raphael Caldwell was a mysterious man who had a task that need to be done in Aurora. After his wound healed, he must be gone from the town as soon as possible. But he can't let go and forget the sweet Emily just yet. Meanwhile, Emily didn't want to be parted with her captor also, until a lie torn them apart. Raphael got caught and would be hanged. Emily will risk all she had to save the man she'd fallen in love. Even if that mean she had to ruined her good name.

This was a good story that Brenda Joyce write. Fast pace with strong characters like Emily and Raphael who you'll will love instantly. Look for her novels such as The Bragg's family series, Beyond Scandal and Secrets. Guarantee you won't be disappointed. You got not only one story, but also three other stories by other authors like Connie Brockway, Cait Logan and Stephanie Mittman. Sadly, all the stories was too short, just when you started to enjoy them, you had to say goodbye to them. So for those who love a full length novel instead of short ones, you can skip this book. But for those who don't mind and those who just started to read romance novels, you should grab this book to accompany you in the weekend.

Excellent book for any military enthusiast! Great detail of the production of the aircraft as well as the testing that was done to ensure the reliability and survivability of this aircraft. As a crew chief on the B1-B at Ellsworth AFB we showed the world our combat capability in Iraq in Dec 98 and again in Yugoslavia in March-June 99.

Logan was a young colleague of Marshall McLuhan at University of Toronto and brings a richness of linkage between McLuhan's vision and its fruition in the internet age. While the book gives many practical overviews, it is more a book of comprehension than of instruction. The internet age is upon us, but many firms are not at the point of understanding "learning a living" as a concept. Logan's book provides the kinds of insights that are needed in organizations in order to move into the vast resources of the internet both in terms of knowledge and also in terms of languaging and communications with the WWW which is indeed the World Wide Web. We don't hear enough of homage to McLuhan for seeing what was coming though the scale of it was surely beyond his wildest imagination, but not the idea of it. Here we have Logan who had the privilege of working with McLuhan taking that vision to the next level of comprehension -- that is the being in it as so many are, and the implications in the workplace and the world at large. Perhaps I am a bit biased as I have met Logan and done mutual raves about the net (before I knew his credentials). It was fun. Baseball was also a great chat with this expatriate New Yorker.

So far, I have read 8 books in this series, and I think this one is the best of them. It starts in the midst of a raging blizzard, and the action hardly ever lets up over the next 180 pages. I won't give away any key plot points, but the hero, Slocum, gets involved in an extensive cave adventure, a Russian duchess, and a small array of villainous and eccentric side characters - one of whom had apparently killed an old friend of his. The book is an engagingly written, action packed adventure with moody and suspenseful cave exploration sequences, complete with pitfalls and stalking gunmen; wintery outdoor adventure scenes with life-or-death peril; and of course some steamy (!!) encounters with western gals, which are well-placed within the story. The end result is ideal escapist reading for cold winter days and (especially) nights. (I'm writing this 2 days after the book's original release at the end of February.) 5.7hrs.

F. Donald Logan's The Vikings in History seeks to establish that the overall picture we have of the vikings is distorted to the point that we do not consider their contributions to the development of Europe in the Middle Ages and early Renaissance periods. Logan wishes to move away from the traditional "Franco-centric" viewpoint which holds that it was the Carolingians who brought about the great changes to western civilization. For Logan, the Vikings instituted a great many of these changes, which resulted in the establishment of political, social and economic institutions which prevailed in western civilization for a fairly long time.

Logan divides his book into several sections which deal with the vikings from a geographical perspective, treating groups separately, e.g. the Vikings in Ireland or the Vikings in England. This isolationist approach gives better perspectives on the individual movements of various Viking tribes and their accomplishments in the respective area.

The book is not boring and is not bogged down with historical jargon or long explanations of historical methods and it reads extremely well. Some of Logan's discussions such as those on the value of the Vinland map work well for students of history as they would for people gathered at the dinner table. At the end of every chapter there is a short list of other works which the curious reader may wish to pursue.

Some of Logan's conclusions may be questioned, especially when his ideas tear down traditional assumptions dealing with persons who have been revered for their accomplishments, such as King Alfred the Great.

This book is a good read for any beginner student of the vikings. It is an easy read and it is informative. Students will appreciate Logan's employment of both archaeological and literary evidence for his supports.

With a story-like text and crisp, interesting photographs, children will enjoy learning that there are 60 species of kangaroos and that some males can be 7 feet tall and weigh more than 200 pounds. Their hind legs are specially built for hopping and kangaroos can leap higher than 6 feet. Most children may know that the baby joey is carried in the mother's pouch, but they are sure to enjoy the illustration of the mother cleaning the pouch. Also interesting is the way kangaroos communicate with each other with hissing and clucking - great ideas for role-playing being a kangaroo!

It was a good book better than the last one. I also enjoyed Sherry A. Mauro's new book, EVEN ANGELS FALL. The heroine Sabrina Ayers was a wonderful character which reminded me of Cathy. It was a romantic, dark, haunting tale with a shocking family secret to uncover! I highly recommend this book to any VCA fans!

It was a good book with an interesting storyline. It reminded me of a new author I've been reading Sherry A. Mauro. Her novel, EVEN ANGELS FALL is a great book and this author's writing style is close to VC Andrews. I loved it!

After reading what seems to be a gazillion books on the innocent princess in the tower type heroine (Dawn, Annie, Ruby,Melody,etc.) from V.C. Andrews it was refreshing to have a heroine who was sharp, if not cruel and cynical.
That's all the praise you'll be able to pry from me for this book. Though the change of character was something new I still couldn't like this book and I especially found it hard to sympathize with a character that will later on do so many horrible things. I suppose this book was supposed to show us how Oliva Logan became so cold and evil, what with getting her heart broken by what's his face but I think that no matter what had happened, what environment she had grown up in she would have grown up the same. With snake venom in her veins rather then blood what else could we expect? I was so sick of her spitting negativity left and right that I was glad when the book ended. Later thankfully, V.C. Andrews ceates a heroine that is both smart and kind, Willow
