An eye opening look at parenthood and our society
Jack Nelson Pallmeyer's book could have been written in 2001 as he is dead on target on what's happening in the political scene and our society today. I couldn't think of a better book for both parents and anyone wanting to take a closer look at where "we" are at as a country. This is information that you're most likely not going to read about in mainstream publications. It's changed the way I look at parenting and deserves more than five stars!

A wonderful look at US values
Nelson-Pallmayer paints an accurate picture of the state of affairs of the American family and offers ideas for improving our Nation for the good of all families.


The Far Side of Nowhere
Published in Hardcover by Arkham House Pub (2002)

Average review score:

Romances, inventions, & intrigue
Nelson Bond is a wizard at creating bizarre, unusual story lines which excel in the unexpected, and his original stories comprising Far Side Of Nowhere, provide some unusual scenarios; from supernatural forces to wizards and magic. Romances, inventions, intrigue: all the stuff of thrilling fantasy and ordinary individuals caught in unbelievable worlds comes to life.

Ranging in mood from horror to heroic fantasy
The Far Side Of Nowhere is an impressively presented anthology of the sometimes bizarrely twisted, sometimes darkly imaged, and always captivating fantasy and science fiction stories of Nelson Bond. A master at skewing reality just enough to see a mirror glimpse of the secret dreams that lie beneath the humdrum, ordinary surface of daily life, Bond is a demonstrably talented writer who has clearly mastered the storytelling craft. Ranging in mood from horror to heroic fantasy, these stories are as evocative and engaging as they are striking and memorable.

Fadren -- Fadrentastic!

Naturalistic fiction has never been so stripped,
a choking ibsenomaic portion;
precocial nautch that grows as it goes.
Strindberg's stronger wiccecræft stronger.

Father, a masterpiece...
After writing the Red Room and several other wonderful books, Father is really one of Strindberg's most fantastic work. It is stunning how a person can describe human beings in the way Strindberg does, or did, since he past away over 80 years ago... Just buy it and read it.

Showcases some 163 kinds of ferns
Enhanced with more than two hundred color photographs, Gil Nelson's The Ferns Of Florida: A Reference And Field Guide showcases some 163 kinds of ferns ranging from norther species whose southern range extends into the uplands of Florida's norther tier, to tropical ferns spilling over Florida's southern tip. The text is thoroughly "reader friendly" with detailed descriptions and helpful identification tips, along with an invaluable selection of field observation based botanical keys for identifying plants in their wild ecosystems. There are extensive notes on each species growth form, as well as the botanical names, unique characteristics, garden use, and history. An essential and core title for any Floridian based gardener, as well as the professional and academic horticulturalist or botanist, The Ferns Of Florida also includes a glossary, a section on the fern life cycle and structure, a history of fern study in Florida, a discussion of some of the state's best natural ferneries, and an extensive bibliography for further study.

Ferns of Florida
This book is for anyone who has an interest in ferns and wishes to be able to distinguish one from the other. Great color pictures so that you can compare the subtle differences and make these ferns you own. Ferns are wonderful plants that require little care and are almost impossible to kill even with kindness. Enjoy.

"I Never knew that was in the Bible!
This book has enlighted me to many phrases in the bible. I can find things much faster than just thumbing through. It is a great addition to my library.

Bible Study Helper
Each Monday evening at Bible Study if we are not sure where to look when the Bible refers to diffferent books in the Bible this A to Z book has really helped out due to some confusing issues that are discussed in the Revelations Book. It would be a great gift and a great guide that each Bible Study should have at least one of. Thanks to a dear lady named Hannah who brought it! It has saved alot of time and you know an hour of Bible worship goes quickly!

What a fun cookbook!
I really have enjoyed using this cookbook...I especially like the ability to substitute different ingredients in each recipe to make it a bit different every time.

It's the cookbook for everyone!
I rated this book 5 stars because it is not snobbish nor is it only for the tres-chic cook. It's the cookbook for everyone! Very simple and easy to follow and the variations are amazing. Nothing was too salty or too sweet. The recipes were very well-tested because they were 'just right.' It takes boredom out of the usual repetitive meals. It's also a great gift idea! I gave it to a friend for a gift and she loves it too!

Essential 20th Century History AND a Darned Good Book
I was extremely surprized by this book. It is quite well-written and it tells a terrific story -- and though it is fully first-person, Omar Bradley comes across as a really fine guy. While he genuinely earned the rank, authority and privilege he ultimately exercised as a top US Army general, the story of his slow-but-steady rise through the hierarchy conveys the depth of personality he had achieved by the time he reached the upper ranks. A biography of George Marshall calls Bradley the "most effective troop leader ever produced by the US military system," and one can certainly see the validity in that appraisal by reading his autobiography. Bradley's honesty about other famous generals is interesting (though it is true he pretty much outlived all of them, and was able to have the final word) and appropriatedly honest/kind. Not far into the book, you wish you actually knew him, he seems the sort who would make a great friend.

Bradley's evaluations of several significant events make this book essential reading for students of 20th Century history. The perspective from which he witnessed everything was perfect for retrospective observation -- he wasn't so high up (like Churchill) that he had a global view, nor so low down that he could only see the trenches. And his micro-brief account of Anthony McAuliffe's "Nuts!" episode is just laugh-out-loud funny.

Omar Bradley
An outstanding autobiography of General Omar Bradley. Informative and homorous at times, but always entertaining. I found the work to have no slow areas, it held my attention throughout. Not only is it the story of Omar Bradley but it is also the story of the US Army for the first half of the twentieth century. Students of World War II history and the true military professional will enjoy this book. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
