Without any doubt this book belongs on everyone's bookshelf.
Marvelous. Compelling. Funny. (How rare to review a new work by Mark Twain!) This book is rare, old scotch with just enough ice. It's a fine, black Connecticut cigar. It's a wide tie with a brave picture on it. It's a moonlit sail on the seas of time, and the distant rasping, drawling voice of God, winking at the human race through his prophet Samuel. Get it. Read it a little at a time. Hope like hell somebody finds some more papers out there in California that nobody has had the chance at, and that the small minded are at lunch and the office boy leaves them in the outbox and they, too, come to print while yet we live. No one can possibly get past the mythic Mark Twain to a deeper understanding of the great writer and his later passions without a thorough reading of the Eden stories, and an enjoyment of his darker humor. As an anthology, this book is a delight. But this work includes previously unpublished writings, and so it must be in any Twain lover's library. The author of this book is Clemens himself. The editors have, with appropriate reverence and irreverence, expanded the horizons of our understanding. Hoorays and war-whoops all round.

Reviving the Swann
This book is an amazing accomplishment! The essays within this critical analysis on the works of Carol Shiels provides insight into all of her novels, not to mention the fact that it also includes a piece by Shields herself. The before unpublished essay on "narrative hunger" by Shields alone indicates the wealth of knowledge found in this collection of essays. Shields's essay, once a speech given at Hanover College, explores how stories are lost or mishapen. In the end, Shields delves into a discussion on literary theory, the nature of our reality, and the stories we create.
Shields is an amazing writer who has given us so so much through her works and saddly, she's often overlooked as a mundane novelist who writes about "women's lives." This book proves that like the poet Swann, her works will not be lost, forgotten, or disregarded. They live, walk, and breath as much and as often as you and me. "Narrative Hunger and the Possiblities of Fiction" reveals just that, the beauty and fecudity of Shields's literature.

It's wonderful!
I read this book a few years ago and I remembered it so I decided to track it down. Took a while because I could barely remember the title. This book makes you happy, sad, and feel for the characters as they go through loss, love, and everything that makes life.

Excellent source of information for training in this field.
R.S. Eden's "Dog Training for Law Enforcement" is one of the best and most comprehensive books I've read on this subject. Makes me want to join the local P.D. just to train a dog. Mr. Eden's ability to translate his knowledge into easily readable and usable information is commendable. Even if you have no interest in training dogs yourself, its worth the read just to see how its done! Can we clone Mr. Eden and ship out a copy to every police department with a K-9 unit?

The love of GOD is awesome
A.W.Tozer's book on echoes from Eden is unique to say the least. He starts with explaining that GOD loves HIMSELF and the things that HE sees in man that HE loves is the things that most remind HIM of HIMSELF. He helps the CHRISTIAN to understand the need to appropriate this love. By the end of the book he helps you to understand to the long, narrow road back to Eden. He deals with the love of GOD, the effect of sin, man's responsibilty for his sin, the BLOOD of JESUS, the power of the HOLY SPIRIT, the working of scriptures and the general understanding of GOD. This book will no doubt be a classic. Tozer was a Prophet in his generation and for anyone desiring true insight into GOD, this book is for U!
