A sassy society miss masquerades as twins for double trouble and double fun! A terrific and wonderful read. I highly recommend it.

Werner Sollors' critical anthology is a timely contribution to the relatively new multicultural self-image of America. On the historical side, it reminds us of the fact that, until about 1920, "American Literature" was understood as "literature written in the U.S.A.",in a variety of languages other than English, and that these works were also included in the anthologies and histories of American Literature. Authored by international and American scholars, the book's essays trace the development towards "English only" over the past seven decades, provide enligthening - and often entertaining - examples of novels, stories, poems and plays written in German, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, Spanish, Yiddish, and other languages, and present the reader with a fascinating mosaic of America's truly multicultural literary heritage. With regard to the contemporary situation in an age of rapidly growing globalization, Sollors' introduction points to the somewhat paradoxical fact that, in spite of the new multicultural understanding of American society, the number of Americans who speak any language other than English is in constant decline. Reminding us of the fact that language always transports cultural values, Sollors' proposal for the preservation of America's rich multicultural heritage is "English plus" (another language). This idea may not make him many friends among the contemporary "English only" movements in several regions of the U.S., but it certainly appears to be a viable way towards a serious practice of multiculturalism.

This is a darling book with true life illustrations. This book was recommended by the Before Five In A Row book. I ordered it used and received the book in perfect condition. It's a good book for exploring nature for children ages 2-5. Also, the illustrations provide good examples of nature, in the case you want to do nature journaling.

This book rescues literature by and about mixed-race (Mulattoes and mixed-whites) people from the myth that they are all exotic varieties of "black." The author also gives us the history of common myths about interracial mixture.

This book should be read with Lawrence Tenzer's "The Forgotten Cause of the Civil War: A New Look at the Slavery Issue" because both books emphasize the importance of the "white slave" in abolitionist literature.

Library Journal's review of this guide: "Combining encyclopedic coverage of destinations with loads of practical information and atlas-type maps, the series illuminates the wonders of nature but emphasizes the peculiarity of a place's people and their folklore."

To try and capture the images of nightfighting in the second world war is a difficult subject indeed but our authors have succeeded very nicely. From the early days of Wolfgang Falck upto the bitter end in 1945. Close ups of conditions and aircraft with insights into the lives of the nightfighters. This book truely encompasses the whole period during which the Nachtjager were involved in the war. The rise and fall of the nightfighters is all there. The loss of valuable crews to useless tactics like dayfighting for nightfighters, the loss of Becker for example. The loss of highly experienced officers like Heinrich Prinz zu Sayn-Wittgenstein and Helmut Lent to attrition and accident is all covered in pictures and words. This book is a must for those interested in the story of the nightfigters.

As co-translator and writer of the book's English language adaptation, I recommend that this Tanam Press edition be rejected as illegitimate, due to grievous editing errors on almost every page. The more recent Jonathan Cape (UK) edition is far superior, being closer both to Werner's vision and that of my original English adaptation.

This is an indespensible book for everybody with an interest in critical Marxist thought. The book works the muscle

The Kauai study of children born in 1955 is famous. These investigators bring to life the enormous amount of data that they have gathered, since that time. They also propose changes in the way we raise our children, based on their data.
