Borders Books is awsome, since it has all the hard to find books :)

Don't be fooled by the cover. This book is funny. It is insightful while extending a true message a the same time. The message is remember parables, stories heard from your youth. Upon gaining adulthood, you usually understood what your elders were saying. It is hard to explain without giving away the details of the book. This book reminds us of the familar and funny parables heard when growing up as children. Great message from a funny author. I am sending copies to all my friends.

One love!!

This book is the clearest comentary on the N.T. in Spanish that I have found anywhere. I teach in a Spanish Bible School and I have found that this book is the best for class room and personal study that I can get into my students hands.

This book really helped me with a project I was doing forHistory it had a lot of information including dates and accurateinformation. I loved reading it and I learned a lot to futher my reaseach on Ellis Island. None of the parts were boring and is wasn't hard to read ( I'm a seventh grader)it worked perfectly with what I was doing! I think if anyone wanted a good book on Ellis Island this is it!

Soap operas are the most popular genre in the world. This book shows how they can be used to promote worthy values in society. A must read for anyone wishing to use radio or television as positive forces in society.

An excellent resource which outlines the methodology of combining radio and television dramatic story-telling entertainment with pro-social educational goals. Documents several successful campaigns carried out in various countries which promoted safe sex, lower birth rates, and higher status of women. Other projects introduced agricultural techniques and other topics.

A well-written history, with copious use of photos, about a troubled, audacious railway hacked through a river canyon & miles of timber to reach a hoped-for Mother Lode high up in the rugged Cascade Mtns NE of Seattle-- called Monte Cristo. The dreams of most prospectors never panned out, including one of the key investors back East, John. D. Rockefeller. Ultimately the mines and railway failed, but not before much colorful history occured over the 40 or so years of the railway's existence. One co-author, Phil Woodhouse, wrote an earlier work about the mines & railroad titled "Monte Cristo"--an excellent history. The present work adds new information uncovered over the years since "Monte Cristo's" 1979 (1996 update) publication, as well as many photos (some never published before) of the railway. A very handsome coffee-table size addition to any railroad/mining/historical buff's library.

This book takes place about 10 years after LOVING LILY. Lily's younger brother Peter wants to purchase a neighboring farm from an Earl who left America with his family shortly before the war. The Earl agrees to sell the land to Peter, but dies before the sale is completed.

Rose, the Earl's daughter, is being forced by her mother to marry an old man to pay off the family's debts. Instead, Rose sneaks off to America thinking if she can run the farm and earn a profit she can support her family and won't have to marry.

Rose is determined to work the land that Peter believes should be his. Peter helps Rose with her planting because he believes the land will be his when Rose grows tired of the work and goes back to England. Even as Rose and Peter fall in love Peter has trouble trusting her because of what another English woman did to him during the war.

When Peter realizes he does trust Rose, she's gone. Peter, who's been trying to get Rose to leave, now has to decide whether to go after her.

This was really a wonderful book. Rose is strong and admirable. She went after what she wanted - to live in America and work the land. Peter starts the book untrusting and bitter, but he comes through for Rose when it's needed.

A Fragile Revolution: Consumers And Psychiatric Survivors Confront The Power Of The Mental Health System reveals the complex relationship between ex-mental patients, the government, the mental health system, and mental health professionals. Barbara Everett draws upon her experience with having worked in both hospital and community mental health services to explore how recent changes in policy have affected patient/provider relationships, crating new tensions and new opportunities. A Fragile Revolution is highly recommended reading for consumer advocates, health care policy makers, psychiatric service providers, psychiatric patients, and the general reading public with an interest in mental health care issues.

As a historian, I love history, particularly medieval and ancient history. Unfortunately, most people find history boring and just something they have to do in school. Percival takes a subject that is wonderful and interesting to some of us, namely Greek history, and makes it into something that everyone can access and experience. He gives life to names in text books that most people never think twice about. In addition to bringing history to life, his style is very unique. His use of Vlepo as a point of departure from "normal" point of view story telling is truly awesome. The ancient world has never felt more real.

Along with "Best Ghost Stories of LeFanu",also published by Dover, this completes the set of LeFanu's short stories. Although these stories tend to be a bit longer than masterworks like "Green Tea", they are every bit as worthwhile and are musts for any fan of English-Irish ghost stories. These two volumes comprise multiple collections of LeFanu's work originally published under the titles "Madame Crowl's Ghost" "In A Glass Darkly", "Golden Friars" and several previously uncollected stories. Le Fanu is right behind M.R James and right in front of E.F Benson in the ghost story writing business.
