Take a fifth century trip to the Holy Land
Egeria, a nun on pilgrimage to the holy land in the late fourth or early fifth century, gives great first-hand descriptions of the liturgical life of the Jerusalem Church, other famous sites of devotion, and her return trip to Constantinople.

This book is of interest to archeologists, geographers, church historians, and liturgists. Another related book that I recently skimmed is "The Land Called Holy: Palestine in Christian History and Thought" by Robert Wilken. It is a readable account fo how Christians have engaged the land of Jesus and made it their own in every political, social, and religious sense. Enjoy!

The Essence of Stigler
Published in Hardcover by Hoover Inst Pr (1986)
Authors: Kurt R. Leube, George Joseph Stigler, and Thomas Gale Moore
Amazon base price: $34.95
Average review score:

It's worth
This is a set of papers written by Stigler in his marvelous career. It is divided into 5 parts: I. Contributions to economics; 2. contributions to political economics; 3. contributions to industrial organization; 4. history of economic thought; 5. the wit of George Stigler.

It is very difficult to gather all these 23 articles in only one place. The book is worth because you can find a bunch of deep knowledge.

Enjoy the book, revisit old ideas very clear and well written, and perhaps get other ones.

THE Architect for Victorians
Obviously you enjoy architecture or you wouldn't be thinking of reading a review of this book. Think no further, buy the book. Frank Furness has been overlooked way too long and this book shows why in pictures and a nice overview of text why this mans work, and what is left of it, should be escalated to the heights of the finest.


George Jean Nathan and the Making of Modern American Drama Criticism
Published in Hardcover by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Pr (2000)
Author: Thomas F. Connolly
Amazon base price: $35.00
Average review score:

On the aisle--in style!
Nathan was an incredible character and Connolly shows why he was certainly the most important critic of the first half of the 20th century. He also proves that Nathan is a representative American cultural figure.

I got totally caught up in Nathan's struggles with "burying" his own Jewishness and with the anti-semitism of his era.

Great stars and writers like H. L. Mencken, Eugene O'Neill, Laurette Taylor, Lillian Gish, and Tennessee Williams crowd the book's pages and bring Broadway's glory days to life. Nathan was a real "man about town" and this book captures the wit and glamour of the Great White Way.

Connolly also shows how critics today live in Nathan's shadow. He challenges them by questioning their methods and standards. (And even takes on some "high-brow" reviewers like John Lahr and Robert Brustein.)

This is a fascinating book for theatre lovers, history buffs and scholars alike. Lot's of great--never before published dish too!

Great read...informative...funny...Great Documents
This book was a great, easy read. Nothing is off limits in this biography of Washington that explores everything from his love life to the challenges of his presidency. The authors are even sarcastic and funny at times. I also like that half the book is full of documents. I found myself reading the book and when i wanted more information, flipping to the back of the chapter and looking at the documents which included washington's list of slaves, a love letter he wrote to a girlfirend in addition to the usual documents one might suspect like his inaugural address. Everything was great about this except the price. I found it in a local library to read for free but I dont think I would shell out that much for a book.

Golf Architecture in America
This book is a must for all golf historians and want-to-be golf course architects. It gives you in depth insight on how to build a strategic and rewarding golf course. George C. Thomas has the courses to back it up as well. A perfect example is The Riviera Country Club, which I have worked at and played many times. It is the epitomy of a strategic course that this book exemplifies.
