Kneel before the Lord of Fantasy!
Interesting, very intersting. If you have ever wondered what made J.R.R. Tolkien write his epic master piece, or are curious about what he was like growing up, this book is a must fo you. Of course being a biography it can be a bit dull at times, but so what that how life is boy! This book afirmed that the respect and admiration I have for J.R.R. Tolkein was not just me blowing his importance out of proportion, for he truly always has, and always will be, a master of fantasy!

Walk with Jesus
This book is a fascinating journey in transforming one's consciousness. It captivates with its rich insight into Christianity and the real meaning of the Gospels of John. It is concisely crafted, answering basic and complex questions people have when seeking to transform their life. It provides the tools to attain greater acceptance and understanding in the search for truth from within, and yet is so easy to read - one hardly puts it down except to savor and contemplate its greater implications. This book offers a provocative approach for those sincerely wanting and willing to open their hearts and minds to Jesus. I've given it several times as a gift as I feel it is the best book I've ever read about Jesus. Be adventurous and take the steps to become deeply aware as the Master directed.

Heartwarming
This wonderful story about a boy and his horse shows that special bond that can exist between a person and an animal. The illustrations enhance the story. Our family read an article in the Randolph (Vermont) Herald that tells the real story of John and Tom.

John Henry - imaginary folktale or real man?
When I first heard about this book I thought, "there's no way this book is about the legendary steel driver". The title is what threw me off "JOHN HENRY A Bio-Bibliography". How could you write a "bio-bibliography" about an imaginary guy?

It turns out that in the early 1900 two professors, Guy Johnson and Louis Chappell, decided to track down the origions of the John Henry ballad and folktale. They were shocked to find people who actually claimed to know the Steel Driver. They knew what he looked like, where he worked (C&O railroad in W. Virginia), and even the name and location of the tunnel where he raced the steam drill and died. Incredible!

I orginally was hooked on the John Henry folktale as a kid when I read the children's book by Ezra Keats. As an adult it is wonderful to read that he actually might have existed. John Henry a Bio-bibliography is a wonderful book full of great history and intrigue.

Excellent source for those wanting to know how theatre works
This book covers the 1986 season of The Stratford Festival, from the first day of rehearsal of each production. Actually, it starts prior to the season with the selection of John Neville as artistic director.
Mr Gaines has comments from the cast, directors, designers and others that give a real insight as to what goes into putting all the productions together, on both the artistic and financial side.
This is a fascinating look at the world of one of North America's most respected theatre companies.
