Kids will like to look at this one up close!
This book has neat step-cut pages that get bigger as the pyramid grows. There is simple text explaining the process of pyramid building for young children, as well as additional facts and information for older or more experienced children. I am taking my kindergarten class on a field trip to an Egyptian exhibit, and this will be a good book to introduce them to the pyramids.. we may even make our own! I was surprised when I received the book -- it is a hardcover with sturdy pages!

Get this book!
This is a dictionary of the words used in the New Testament (Authorized Version). It is an easy-to-use tool to anyone wanting to delve deeper into the meaning of the words used in the NT.

Unlike more difficult lexicons such as Strong's, the words in Vine's are alphabetized by the English word; then you are told which various Greek words are translated using that English word and their meanings Other usages in the NT are also compared and contrasted. References to the Strong's numbering system are given in the margins.

It's a quick source of lexigraphical information that is useful to any lay Bible scholar.

Outstanding Commentary on Revelation
This book is an outstanding commentary on the book of Revelation by a talented and knowledgeable author. This is a historical-critical exegesis of the book of Revelation. I found it thorough and remarkable. A must-read for anyone interested in the apocolyptic literature of the New Testament.

The framers of the Constitution in their own words
An essential book for every American both young or old, male or female, Democrat or Republican. A delightful discovery on the need of God and guns (or perhaps swords) in the United States and the intolerance of a government in charge of all but answerable to noone. An undeniably perfect fit for todays culture.

Discover your roots from the men that gave their lives for the signing of the Constitution; true heroes. Their resolve was unquestionable and the love for country without reproach.

They brought us so far. We've walked away. Read it and weep. BK

Another nice book at the Wake
Good essays on "Finnegans Wake," clearly written and useful. Kind of like Tindall's books on Joyce in that its meant to encourage you to plow through "FW" and not be cowed by the prospect. Enjoy.

Awesome book when you don't want to read alot
I'm 15 and had to critique a book having to do with the Middle Ages. While other people chose The Prince and bigger books I sorta cheated and got this 30 page book with pictures. It had lots of informative facts and little cartoon drawings that helped me better understand the info. It took me 20 minutes to read so it was really easy but I actually learned alot.

March on..but do count the ways..
There are magnificent books about the French Revolution, Michelet's (not Burke, not Carlysle could match its emotional committment to the heart rather than the idea), Lammartine (readers have sung the Marselleise leafing through the history of te Gironde), then comes Lefevbre, a modern..narrates at Michelet's tempo the measures of Lammartine's events. No doubt the modern's attraction is to the more objective clause, and yet, at some point an image of Marianne strats to appear in the pages. Yes, a son of the Revolution, on the way to the annaliste school. This is what modern historical writing should be all about..
