I love this book.

Not because it's any great literary acheivement or startlingly original or anything. But because it's so damn entertaining and creepy. A demonic entity is posessing the minds of people, turning them into homicidal maniacs. One man has seen the creature "in between" hosts and recognizes it as some kind of parasitic demon. He stalks the creature across the US and finds it on a remote island up north where the residents find themselves cut off for several weeks every winter. Can he stop it before it kills everyone on the island? The author, Warner Lee, has a lot of fun with this story line and delivers some honest to God chills and thrills. If you enjoy horror and appreciate crisp writing and good, action packed story-telling, do yourself a favor and find this rare book. It's like a well executed b-movie at the drive-in. Highly recommended for horror fans.

Very Accessable, great recipies

I just picked up this book, and I'm a fan. Made the spaghetti and meatballs -- it was SO good. The biscotti recipe was very good, and they're much better fresh out of the oven than from a shelf in a StarBucks somewhere. Lots of anecdotes and asides throughout. If you want an Italian adventure, this should send you on your way!

The best guide to Italian Riviera and Liguria

My wife and I bought all the guidebooks for the Italian Riviera and Liguria for our trip there March 02. The Cadogan guide was by far the best. The layout was easier to use and find info. The print was large enough to comfortably read while in the car going up and down the mountains. The historical capsules were brief yet informative. The pictures were few but good. After our first day or two, we dispensed with all the other guides and just used the Cadogan.

BTW, Liguria (Italian Riviera) is far superior to the French Riviera (which is still a great place).

Both have colorful histories and great scenery. The Italians are a bit friendlier, the hills there steeper and more dramatic. Most important is the contrast in small village life. In France, the fascinating medieval villages are wall-to-wall tourist shops. In Italy, the villages are where people still live and work. A much better experience for us.

For the Italian Riviera, train is the best mode of transportation. For the French Riviera, we prefer a car.

Italian Villas and Gardens: A Corso Di Disegno

A must-have well-illustrated overview of italian villas

This book is the best all-around overview of the design of Italian Villa Gardens I have found to date. This is largely due to the strength of the analytical diagrams that carefully disect the spatial organization of the villa, and faithfully explore the house-garden relationship that is the essence of these places. If you are an architecture or landscape architecture student interested in the Italian villa, the diagrams are some of the best published sources available. The text is very concise, almost too short...but this also makes the topic useful for the student with more interest in the topic than time. Fortunately the authors know their topic well enough to focus their commentary with great precision.

Excellent as a reference and art history

More than just a summary presentation of the Getty's extensive holdings, "Handbook of the Photographs Collection" provides an excellent history of the art and science of photography. That the material at the Getty alone would provide for such a discourse speaks volumes of the depth and breadth of their collection. This one stays on my coffee table.

It's a great way to learn about this endangered animal.

When a friend first introduced me to the book, J. Rooker, Manatee, we were in the middle of an endangered species unit with our third grade classes. We shared this unique manatee story with the students, and they were immediately moved by it's contents (the painted illustrations were beautiful, too). The story of J. Rooker helped the children see how easy an animal's life is threatened when humans are careless with motor boats in our waterways. In addition, the children learned a great deal about manatees from the cleverly placed facts in the story, and from the last few "fact pages" in the book. We've recommended this book to many teacher friends in other states and have bought copies for gifts, as well. It's a truly wonderful story!

Ages 3-8 will enjoy this beautiful folk story, embellished with Grace Lin's warm drawings and capturing the immigrant experience from the eyes of a young Chinese girl whose beloved fisherman father vanishes at sea. Good reading skills will lend appreciation to this story of a girl's growth.

THE XJ-S book

Paul Skilleter probably knows more about the XJ-S than anyone else, and it's all here. He is British, yet he manages to cover details of all of the international variations in spec. Complete production and racing history, driving impressions, and sober buying tips are all included and all first rate. Highly recommended.
