Witty, devious, and full of dazzling humor!

Cowboy Poetry Matters: From Abilene to the Mainstream: Contemporary Cowboy Writing
Published in Paperback by Story Line Press (April, 2000)
Author: Robert McDowell
Average review score:

The best anthology of cowboy poetry available today
If this is not the first, it is undoubtedly the best, anthology of cowboy poetry available today. For many years I thought cowboy poetry was kind of, well, you know, cowboyish. That is, it was kind of cute in a nursery rhyme sort of way but was not really relevant when you compared it to real poetry. Fortunately, I was privideged to live in the west for four years and was introduced to some of the best poetry I have ever read. It was called, well, cowboy poetry! Not only was it as well written as any so-called mainstream poetry but it has a way of speaking to the reader that will forever change the way you view cowboy poetry. Thus, it was with great interest that I read Cowboy Poetry Matters. The book brings together some of the best and brightest cowboy poets writing today, most notably Linda Hussa, Linda Hasselstrom, and Laurie Buyer and places their work along side such well known mainstream poets as Donald Hall and Maxine Kumin. The result is a remarkable collection of poetry by diverse poets that discover they share a lot of common ground and that cowboy poetry can be, and is, as relevant and diverse as the poets. In addition to a feed bag full of wonderful poetry, the reader will find memoirs by Linda Hussa and Wallace McRae which will stir your soul. Not to be overlooked is a stimulating series of critical essays by Dana Gioia, Paul Zarzyski, and Kathy Ogren which will challenge you to view cowboy poetry in ways you may have never considered. I encourage readers that want to be introduced to some of the very best cowboy poetry available today to try this book. As they say in the west "How long has it been since you read some really bood cowboy poetry?" "Well pardner, that's to long."

Dog in Action: A Study of Anatomy and Locomotion As Applying to All Breeds
Published in Paperback by Dogwise Publishing (September, 2002)
Authors: McDowell Lyon and Josephine Z. Rine
Average review score:

Great book
I first saw this book when my friend brought over a library copy. I didn't have time to read it, but I read the chapter on single tracking.

Let me explain. I'm an engineer. And conformation vs. performance as always been a hobby of mine. Mostly for horses. I always wondered why horses single track. Now I know. Based on that chapter I scoured the used book market until I found my own copy. I found this book to be thought provoking and credible. I bought a copy for a friend of mine who is a professor at one of our state universities and who heads up the collage's judging team (horses again).

I found that by studying dogs, whose conformation could be much more diverse than horses, I could better understand how more subtle conformation differences affect the horse. I will never give up my copy. They will have to pry it from my cold dead fingers.


Double Exposure
Published in Hardcover by William Morrow (November, 1990)
Authors: Roddy McDowall and Roddy McDowell
Average review score:

Beautiful Photography
Mr. McDowell was as gifted behind a camera as he was in front of one. The photographs of celebrities are both thought-provoking and sensitive. Some are playful while others are intense. Now I'm looking for the sequel he published a few years prior to his death.


El Padre Que Yo Quiero Ser: 10 Cualidades del Corazon Que Capacitan A Sus Hijos Para Tomar Decisiones Correctas / Experiencing God in the Workplace
Published in Paperback by Baptist Spanish Publishing House (March, 1999)
Authors: Josh McDowell and Josie H. de Smith
Average review score:

Excelente para padres
Nunca había leído un libro de tan fácil lectura y de tan profundos conocimientos aplicados a la paternidad. Josh McDowell explica, de una manera excelente, las cualidades que un padre debe buscar para conseguir del(los) hijo(s) actitudes correctas basadas en el fundamento que es la Biblia, la Palabra de Dios; además de depositar en ellos el sentimiento de amor, fidelidad, soporte, protección, etc., que hoy por hoy se ha perdido en muchos hogares. La relación padre-hijo es fundamental para la formación sólida de un individuo seguro, y al agregar los principios eternos de la Palabra de Dios es indubitable que el hijo producto de este hogar temerá a Dios y será íntegro, responsable, amoroso, etc. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.

Live your life to the fullest!
Even with a virtual army of professionals and hundreds of volumes of Christian books carefully analyzing our emotional health, many of us still wrestle with deep, unresolved hurts, often still feeling overpowering needs to be loved, accepted and secure. Why? This book will teach you how to effectively apply what you believe to how you live. Here is a courageously articulated plan for bridging the application gap between intellectual belief and heartfelt conviction.

Get off the "perfectionist" treadmill & experience the feeling of being truly accepted. It will help you see how a proper understanding of just who God is, can lovingly transform all your relationships, and how to get rid of fear and anxiety about the future. This book is easily readable and clearly structured.

NO VA A PODER SOLTAR ESTE LIBRO
Si es usted una persona que piensa que no hay suficiente evidencia palpable de la Fé en Jesucristo y de la existencia de Dios, necesita leer este libro.

Exile
Published in Paperback by Ace Books (July, 1993)
Author: Michael P. Kube-McDowell
Average review score:

This is one of my favorite books of all time
In just a few pages Michael P. Kube-McDowell manages to create a complex, believable alien culture. He crafted his characters and setting with such vivid detail, I find myself thinking of this world often. It leads me to re-read this story yet again. I am now on my sixth reading and enjoying it as thoroughly as the first read.
