Ancient Capitals of Thailand
Published in Hardcover by River Books (2001)
Amazon base price: $80.00
Average review score:
Beautiful coffe table book
'Ancient Captials of Thailand' describes the old important cities and captials of Southern Thailand. These include Sukothai, Ayuthaya, Kampeng and several other cities. The book is beautifully illustrated with more than 350 photographs. It also provides site maps and descriptions of the different places and the major temples and structures. Thus, it's not just a 'picture book", but I can recommend this book both for content and quality of the pictures. The book does not cover the cities of the Northern Kingdoms (e.g., Lanna), this is supposed to be the topic of another book.

Beautiful book about music
DK eyewitness books are some of the greatest non-fiction books around. The distinctive white background and high-quality photography gives this book an edge over any other nonfiction picture book. And -- these pictures are real! They're beautiful photos of all things related to music, accompanied by informative captions and text.
Learn about instruments, parts of music, and everything related to music, all augmented by stunningly beautiful museum-quality photography.
If you know someone (young or old) who is fascinated by music, then you must introduce them to this book! It's a great lesson about music, and a beautiful book.
Michael Jackson & the Jacksons: Live on Tour in 84

GREAT BOOK FOLKS MUST HAVE
If you've gotten on the road with michael it's kinda like that as far as the words, a summary of the show very brief (get more info like his loafer flipped off at this tour from on the road with michael) and then the 1984 grammy thing and stuff. pictures are from the same concert as the book victory tour it's about the same in that way, this one has better pictures and more distinct pictures of the show. basically a picture from each song michael did. Positives the pictures show billie jean unlike victory tour book as well as the "kreeton monsters" and the spider. Pictures tickle the imagination a lot more to. Some of the pictures if I didn't know anything about the victory tour would think that the picture was taken while performing "thriller." what that means is they're so good they set a tone. you can tell it was taken place during the eighties. it's not a hard back like victory but it's same size about 14 inches long and quadruple bigger ninety five pages. similarity to victory is that the pictures like the cover front and back are the same except you can tell from a different camera or a different shot. GO GET THIS THOUGH if you have the choice.

PHESANT HUNTERS THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU!!!
Please excuse my spelling, it's terrible This book is terrific. I started reading this book and couldn't put it down. It is a fine collection of stories ranging from the great soilbank days when Kansas alone had 4 million birds to the Royal hunts in Europe where an average daily bag mesaures in the thousands, It has stories more like mine where the average hunt ends with tired dogs and few birds. The book through it's many differant authors also explores the ethics associated with hunting. This book is for the bird hunter who's cleaning his gun for the third time this week when hunting season isn;t for 6 months. It's for the guy who can't stop dreaming of how his new pup will do his first time out. It's for the guy who spends more time with his dogs than with his wife. All hunters will enjoy this book, but the true bird hunter won;t be able to put it down.

What goes into the making of elegant and expressive verse
Compiled and edited by Harry Thomas, Talking With Poets comprises unique selection of interviews with five very different, but highly notable poets: Robert Pinsky, Seamus Heaney, Philip Levine, Michael Hofmann, and David Ferry. A deep and moving examination into lives, motivations, and how life experiences flow into written words on the page, Talking With Poets is an enthusiastically recommended look into what goes into the making of elegant and expressive verse, and of these five men who are particularly gifted in such creations.

EXCELLENT!!
Uniforms of the Penninsular War is an excellent book. It contains lists of the orders of battle for every major battle. The plates are fantastic. The Imperial Guard looks just as ragged as a new regiment of conscipts. The information in this book is priceless for a wargamer!!!

Not Just Guts and Glory
This brilliant collection of poems illustrates that war is more than just fighting and having fun while toting a big gun. People you know and care about can get hurt or even die. Makes you think.
