74 days
This account of the Falklands Conflict is totally different from all the military style books. It's honesty and patriotism make it unique. For anyone who has an interest in the islands, or for anyone who is interested in the conflict, this witty,intelligent,moving book is a must read.


The Ancient Wisdom of Origen
Published in Hardcover by Bucknell Univ Pr (May, 1992)
Author: John Clark Smith
Amazon base price: $49.50
Average review score:

Critical and useful study of Origen's thought.
Intense study of Origen's thought, with probing chapters on how he viewed the beginning and the end, education, spiritual growth, the devil, the Fall, all of which is documented from primary sources. The first book in English to consider the whole range of Origen's thought through the concept of spiritual transformation. Though well documented and indexed, the scholarly depth does not affect the style, which is quite smooth and can be read by someone without knowledge of the field. Would be useful to those interested in ancient Christian thought, the Bible, Christian philosophy and, especially, spiritual transformation.


Another Song to Sing
Published in Hardcover by Scarecrow Press (28 April, 1999)
Author: John L. Smith
Amazon base price: $90.00
Average review score:

A comprehensive look at the musical career of Johnny Cash.
This book, available May-June 1999, includes more than 2,600 song title entries and numbers some 1,005 pages in length. Each entry includes: composer, recording location, producer, session personnel, and the format (single, ep, lp, CD) of release. Most entries carry detailed annotations. Included in the book is a Foreword by Marty Stuart and a complete listing of liner notes, with contents, written by Cash for his CBS albums from 1958-1986. Cash kindly allowed their replication for this project. An index of some 70 pages details the contents of the song entries. This publication is meant to be an encyclopedia, of sorts, of the recorded works of a country legend.

It is an atlas.
Yes, this book is an atlas, like an atlas must be: with many, many pictures, big pictures (the majority use all size of the page) and a easily text to read. I really recomend. I am sorry by the language, please, corretc before, OK. PS: I don't know if pictures are the correct word, the atlas has colored designs, ok


Baby Animals (Lift the Flap Learners)
Published in Paperback by Usborne Pub Ltd (March, 2002)

Amazon base price: $8.95
Average review score:

A wonderful educational book!
I bought this book for my 2 and a half year old twins, and it's just great. I have had trouble finding books for them at this age because so many books are too simple, and others have too many words and don't hold their attention. This book has adorable illustrations, and my girls love the flaps. There is a lot of information on each animal, but it is written in an interesting and fun way, not over their heads. They will be able to read it for a long time as they understand more of the text. I would highly recommend this book.

Simply X-cellent !
This book features Bishop vs. Mountjoy his arch-enemy from the same timeline as him. Mountjoy is a mutant and a homocidal killer on a rampage through New York. I would give the artwork 200% if there was even such a thing. This also shows a lot about Bishop's character and was one of his first limited series. If you are a Bishop fan, then this is a definitely must buy!

Much more than a primer.
This book takes you through the research behind CI and the practical steps in getting started with your own group. I recommend that you read it so that you can benefit from their research. This book is joining a growing body of research in how CI can help adults take leadership and develop learning communities.
