Bikers, Biker Gangs, and Open Road Drama
Not since "Easy Rider" and the Hell's Angels have motorcycles (and biker gangs) inspired such a freedom-loving odyssey through the seamier side of mainstream America. The story itself is an eclectic mix of violence, hip tragedy, and storybook romance, where love plays out against a backdrop of crime, drugs, and wild adventure. Candidly written with stark depictions, such as a hauntingly intense gang-rape scene of the girl's mother, and cross-cultural elements that I found very neat and honest, the Wolfpack sets itself above any open road drama I've seen.

AN OPEN ROAD STORY PAR EXCELLENCE

Candidly written with stark depictions, such as a hauntingly intense gang-rape scene of the girl's mother, and cross-cultural elements that I found very neat and honest, the Worfpack sets itself avboe andy open road drama I've ever come across.

Sex, Freedom, Love and Motorcycles
I thought this book was pretty amazing- a story of freedom, love and motorcycles seething with criminality and the pleasures of the flesh. It's a love/adventure story, but with elements of the Wild West, Mom, and the Mob.

A Twain treasure trove
If you love the works of Mark Twain this is a splendid way to get them. I happen to own the original set of which these are a reprint. All the writing that Twain published in his own lifetime is here, including short stories, essays and topical pieces. Twain is ideal for browsing, and when you have the entire set you can browse to your heart's content.

please list the titles of the 25 vol. of set
I am interested in the 25 vol. set, but want to know the title and vol. number of each. Also the type of binding and how many publications this is for it,as well as the publisher, and address of publisher.

I have 22 volumes from this collection...
In fairly good condition, except for normal wear and tear, reader's use, travel, etc. They have a lithographed "signature page," which states "This is the authorized uniform edition of all my works" The copyright dates run from 1896 to 1907... anyone have an idea what they're worth?

Beautiful
A truly beautiful book, although I expected the pictures to be larger. There is not one full page photo in the book unfortunately. It would really enhance the book to have some of those lovely photos blown up full page.

Beautiful
I bought this for my daughter, a graduating Biologist, but it was so fascinating that I'm afraid she got a slightly used book. It covers all coral reefs anywhere in the world. The maps are superb, as are the color photographs of the reefs. Each reef had a discussion of conditions in the reef, and the life that grows there. It's a huge book but one starts wishing for more; more maps, more photos, more detail. Maybe in the next edition, but meanwhile we can enjoy this superb book just as it.

A groundbreaking (waterbreaking?) achievement!
As the author of books about the ocean, I've read a lot of other books and articles about coral reefs. This is by far the best and most thorough book of its kind. Want to know what conditions are like on the Great Barrier Reef system? Around the Red Sea? Off Sulawesi? This is the place to go for answers. With wonderful maps and easy-to-understand text, it's destined to become the standard reference for divers, marine biologists and armchair adventurers who just want to learn more about this precious and fascinating ecosystem.

Wow!
This book is OUTSTANDING and it is very easy to read! Mark made me laugh numerous times in this incredible book. Finally, a new thought/new age book that is not filled with "fluff" but real hardships, frustrations, and challenges that we all face as we find the courage to discover the God that is within while setting forth on the path that is less traveled.

You Are God, a must for the inquisitive mind
This is a MIND-Expander...Mark Patterson doesn't let up for a moment. He keeps right on slamming one dogma after another. Just when I thought I had a handle on where Mark was going, he would jolt me with a real mental challenge...he surprised me again. A fresh look at our relationship with God-Goddess through the ages up to the present.A new look at where we may be headed and who are these people that claim to be in charge politically and spiritually? Inspiring, funny and definitely thought provoking!

A MUST READ FOR THOSE ON THE SPIRITUAL PATH.
This book is a controversial book. This book is not for everyone, just as not all the books by Neale Donald Walsh, Shirley MacLaine, Deepak Chopra are for everyone. The author, states at the beginning, to go within the depths of your being and decide if the words ring true with you. It is a must read for anyone on the spiritual path. If you are on the spiritual path you know one of the greatest gifts when one is on the path is the gift of discernment. Read, the book and decide for yourself what rings true for you. Since, I have been on the path, the one way my Father-Mother God, angels, guides, ascended masters, saints, have spoken to me...is through books. How many times, I have I been in the bookstore and a book falls down...I know I am suppose to read it. Read, the book. I believe you will find that Mark Clinton Patterson will become the next great spiritual leader like Deepak Chopra. His message goes beyond religion...to the truth that we are all divine.

Quiet as the stars
Schmuel was a shoemaker whom the other people in Plotchnik called Poor Schmuel or Poor Stupid Schmuel because he often forgot to charge his customers and if they forgot pay, forgot to ask. But always somehow magically appeared whenever trouble emerged. To a beggar who came to town, Schmuel gave free and to a fierce bear which arrived in the streets, he gave a bowl of water.

No one cared if he prayed, because they figured he was too stupid to read, and God could therefore not hear them. When, during a drought everyone prayed for rain and none came, Schmuel meekly said from the rear of the synagogue, "Maybe I should pray. Please, God, send rain." Immediately, distant thunder roared, the sky blackened and huge raindrops began tapping on the town's roofs.

It rained for forty days and forty nights. Now the people prayed for the rain to stop, with equal success. Only when Schmuel said, "God, please make it stop raining" did the sun immediately appear.

That night the rabbi dreamed of Chanukah menorahs with 36 candles, and a banquet with 36 men. These were the Lamed Vavniks.

Lamed WHAT? Sorry, if you don't know, you'll have to get the book, which contains secrets about this special breed. If you know already, shhh! Stay as quiet as the stars, and let the Lamed Vavniks shine as brightly. Alyssa A. Lappen

One thing I know
A Lamed-Vavnik disappears/ Amongst us all for years and years./ This book should last for years as well/ A classic tale, as time will tell

Excellent kids book
Wonderful illustrations and a fabulous moral tale. Recommend for 4-6 year olds. It's a little over the head of my 3, but she's interested anyway.

Truly The 100 Greatest Baby Boomer Toys !
This 208 page, softbound walk-through-the-past volume features 250 full color, very large, sharp photos that are a joy to behold. I enjoyed looking at the photos and reading each comprehensive write-up. A real memory jogger. I was quite surprised at the number of these things I actually owned as a child, and welcomed seeing them again in life-like color. Even many of the boxes are shown. There's plenty of interesting text accompanying the photos and year 2000 values. The toys run from Easy Bake Ovens, Slinky, Cootie, Thingmakers, Lincoln Logs, and Spirographs to Tootsietoys, Monster Kits, Pez, Colorforms, Life-Size Kitchens, Gilbert, Renwal Doll Stuff and Captain Kangaroo. You'll really enjoy seeing some of these toys you haven't thought of in years. I have many books on baby boomer collectibles, and this one ranks among the best. Get it and enjoy !

IT'S THOUGHT PROVOKING - AND IT'S EYE CANDY
No generation is so defined by its toys as the Baby Boomers. They loved them as kids. They collect them as adults. 100 GREATEST BOOMER TOYS explores the phenomenon. It's fun and it's serious.

First the fun. The books got hundreds of great pictures. It's like a Christmas catalog. Look up old favorites. Discover items you'd forgotten.

And there's a ranking system which seems pretty much designed to provoke arguments. Wait until you see who's #1!

More substantially there are short essays on many of the toys. Little studies in anthropology, in social history, they tell us about the 50's and 60's. The tie-in of G.I. Joe and the draft is, I think, very apt and really well done.

Once you pick it up, you will be drawn in.

A great place to start
A great starter book for those interested in political collecting. If you do not yet own the Hake books, you'll get a lot of information from this. Contains lots of info on the hobby, fakes, prices, clubs to join etc... Mark is a political button dealer and knows the hobby well. He is also a super nice guy!

I liked it and it was very helpful in my collecting buttons.
I found this book of great help when I am looking for buttons to buy--It tells the reader what to look for in counterfeits and how to accurately estimate prices--good book for beginning collectors!

Great book for study and clarification.
I have read many books dealing with End-Time Prophecy. This author takes great care in developing an issue, then offering alternate points from other Bible students. He comments on each one with his own interpretation and then provides numbered reasons for his stand. On issues where there remains no clear answer in the Bible, he so states that position along with his opinion. I enjoyed this easy-to-read book.

1 of THE BEST!
Mark really did an, 'A+' job here and I can say that because I've read about 25 end-time books. His organization is just SUPERB and user-friendly. U can buy it here for just Ten dollars!I liked this book so much I'll probably buy copies for friends. Mark if u should read this, a personal thank u from me is in DEFINATE order.

Drills that carry over to the field
I have both read the book and seen Coach Snyder on the practice field, and what he tells you about in print, he uses with his own players. In a position where technique can make the player, this book is a must.

this book is great for all coaches
this book has more football drills for line play than any book I have ever bought and I have them all.

REAL COMMUNICATION REALLY FAST
Real Communication, Really Fast! Says an international business consultant and former US diplomat. 'Language Dynamics courses are the only courses I know of that are truly dedicated to effective and immediate communication in the target language. Academic courses often reflect the literary interests of professors, many of whom never had the experience of learning the target language as a second language. With these courses, you can hit the streets after every lesson knowing you can say more than you could yesterday'.
