Wisconsin is lucky to have Zane Williams so he can capture our lovely state. Another book that captures Wisconsin's beauty is The Spirit of Door County with photographs by Darryl Beers. Darryl is to Door what Zane is to Wisconsin!!! Thanks to both of you!!!

Please note that the author of this book is Tracy Will, not Charles Calhoun, and that the photgrapher is Zane Williams

A look at what really happens when corporations rule the world. Dr. Picou explains the difference between natural and man-made disasters in terms of the social impacts they have. He presents the Exxon Valdez disaster from several angles, and takes the reader from the series of poor decisions and budget cutbacks that preceded the event through the ecological catastrophe to the legal and social morass that followed. This book is a must for anyone who wants to understand the challenges we face in an era of corporate globalization.

Very Good Collection of Poetry. Shakespear has to be one of my favorite writer of all times and this book displays his Romantic side amoung other poets.

I was very pleased, to find this book! i searched very long to find a book, where I could learn the basics of woodworking. I like the clear pictures which discribe exactly each part of machines you need. i just ate the book and I enjoyed that the editors marked the stuff which you really need and not much else! for me as a young woman without to much nowledge about wood it was just a very good book to have. it is very good made and I wished we would have such a book in german!

No wild magic tables, no XP tables, nothing that I was able to use in a campaign, maybe except for the fact that it was a screen ...

This is hands-down one of the most useful tools a Realms DM can own. The Screen is decent, with some useful info on the inside, and some nice art, but the real prize and reason for buying this screen is the Realms-tailored Encounters booklet. You can generate Dungeon Encounters and Wilderness Encounters that include the beasties from the Campaign Setting and Monsters of Faerun, and on top of that, the Wilderness Encounters have sections for specific Realms locations where appropriate. If you're going to do FR, you should buy this as soon as you can, it's worth three times its cost in usefulness.

has alot of information for the DM to use at his/her fingertips, instead of having to flip through books or bookmark books. also i think the random encounter tables are very useful, for DMs in the forgotten realm scenario. and extremly useful piece for any DM

I learned about this book from a review in the "Lands End" catalogue, of all places, and was thrilled by the quality and depth of the prints. I thereupon decided that I had to have the book. However, I was really disappointed. In my opinion, the prints reproduced in the book do not come anywhere close to the quality of the prints in the Lands End catalogue. The prints in the book look washed out and blurred, whereas Lands End prints were sharp, with plenty of detail.

Why is Amazon selling this book at full price

If there was not one line of prose in this book, the photographs would be more than worth the price of the book. We have grown up with images from the movies and television. These photographs portray the real American Indian. I found myself with a lense studying the detail of the clothing, beads and headdresses and eventually transported by the expresses. What were these people thinking as they poised? Are we the readers the ones that are really caught in time?

This text provides a quick, concise review of the pimary topics covered on emergency medicine exams. I found it to be a good way to prepare for inservice exams and the written boards.

The publishers of computer books ought to realize that people buy the books to be able to learn a program without having to suffer through technical gobbledygook. This book is written very badly. It is poorly organized. The book's five authors, I get the impression, weren't speaking to one another when they wrote it. The same material is covered in some chapters.

I found it extremely difficult to get anything out of this book, because the material is expalined so badly. I do not recommend it.

First of all, I'd like to say that I'm a competent user of Linux, Windows, and the computer in general. I bought this book expecting it to teach me how to take the *basic* knowledge of FrontPage that I had gleaned from playing with the buttons and learning what they do by trial-and-error and expand upon it, not just explain how to use wizards. Guess which one I got. The so-called "Guide to Running a Linux Server" consisted of an explanation of the fact that ports of the giant security holes that Microsoft calls Server Extentions exist for almost all platforms. I was shocked! The first few chapters in the "Core FrontPage Techniques" section involved inserting tables and pictures! What?! There was then a useful chapter on positioning with CSS2, but then the book jumped right back into using themes! Themes! The topics that followed were primarily discussions of using the wizards, which is simply absurd. Microsoft's wizards make everything simple enough for even the most benightedly unintelligent person to understand. Nearly every topic that followed involved either a wizard or a Server Extension, and I'd rather not use anything like that. I am selling this book now, purchasing one on Dreamweaver, and moving on to real Web development.

what I learned in this book. I don't know where the other reviewers of this book are coming from but as a professional designer there was no better book on the market for me. The entire team I work with has a copy of this book. I have two of the previous editions as well. They are all great.

In my opinion, this is the best book out there whether you are starting off with this program or have used the program before. This book, like the other Stanek texts, is filled with great information, page after page, so that no matter what you are looking for on FrontPage you can find answers. If you are already a high tech person or already have used the program with some success, this is definitely a good choice. If you are a beginner that learns fast, I think this is a good choice too. This book is a must have for any FrontPage user.

I really like the approach and the presentation. The teaching style is casual and if you follow the chapters you will get a FP site up and running quickly. My advice is to buy this book.

I bought this book hoping for a new look at Quantrill to supplement Castel's classic biography. The errors were so rampant that I returned it! Many readers wouldn't recognize them, but someone who has read some of the true scholarship on the border war will immediately notice them and be quickly disgusted. If this author did his research, he left the notes at the library. Read Castel's version; it truly stands the test of time.

"Quantrill's War" by military historian and psychology professor Duane Schultz is meticulously researched and as fast-paced as a John Grisham novel. Schultz traces Quantrill's life from his birth in Ohio to his death in Kentucky, detailing how he went from a common hoodlum to a blood-thirsty guerrilla leader. Schultz clearly shows how Quantrill used the Civil War as an excuse to kill, pillage and terrorize the Kansas-Missouri border region. Schultz presents a well-documented and objective description of the bitter Kansas-Missouri civil war that began in the early 1850s with the Kansas-Nebraska Act. It is a time that spawned fanatical killers like John Brown, Jim Lane (who Schultz correctly identifies as a Kansas senator contrary to the assertions of another reviewer) and the pro-Union Jayhawkers like Charles Jennison. Likewise, the Confederate side contributed Bushwhackers and Border Ruffians like Quantrill, Bloody Bill Anderson and George Todd - not to mention Cole Younger and his brothers and Frank and Jesse James. Schultz demonstrates how these men were not regular Confederate soldiers; they were a roving band of marauders who refused to take orders and prisoners - nor did they expect their enemies to have mercy on them. They torched the homes of civilians and then shot them "like sheep-killing dogs." And -- if possible -- they treated Union troops with even less respect, gunning down in cold blood those who tried to surrender. Schultz recounts in excruciating detail the massacre at Lawrence, going house to house with the raiders as they drag men from their homes and shoot them and set the town afire. Schultz presented the murders in a sequence that vividly created a sense of the mayhem of the raid. And make no mistake, Quantrill's men committed cold-blooded murder. They dragged men and boys from their homes and shot them to death in front of their wives and mothers. Women and children were spared in a strange recognition of chivalry. Lawrence wasn't a regular Civil War battle and Quantrill wasn't a regular Civil War leader, so neither the raid nor the man has been much more than a footnote in Civil War studies. But the historical significance of guerilla warfare by both Bushwhackers and Union Jayhawkers during the Civil War is finally receiving the attention it deserves. Schultz has done a fantastic job of making it accessible.

Written in an accessible style, this book will be welcomed by anyone with an interest in the civil War and the legend of the (in)famous William Quantrill. It reveals how the war helped create both the legend and reality of Quantrill and his gang, the Bushwhackers. According to Duane Schultz, Cpt Quantrill was a man hungry of power and thirsty of vengeance; a common outlaw and a killer. Quantrill ordered the raid on Lawrence in 1963. For hours the Bushwhackers rode through the street killing, burning and stealing. They had killed 150 men that day. The author tried to picture the psychological's profile of William Quantrill and sometimes gives subjectives affirmations to convince the readers he was the fiend incarnate. Nobody never get a truly balanced picture of the Civil war and Quantrill was probably not the devil Schultz thought he was. However "Quantrill's war" is a richly drawn study of the most controversial antihero of the United States history. PH. S.
