This is a well done book which shows illustrations of typical clothing of the ancient Greeks throughout several historical periods. The drawings are clear and accurate as are all of Tom Tierney's similar works. This was an invaluable aid to designing an historically accurate costume for my 6th grader's "Greek Festival".

I teach second grade in a public school and I find that my students have very limited exposure to the world. Using paper dolls in my classroom is a way of bringing historical epochs to life in a very concrete way by providing faces and apparel suitable to the time period for the children to relate to. The books appeal to both male and female students because the artist uses boys and girls in his works. I buy his books when I see them; however, I never cut them up. They are too valuable as a classroom resource. Well done, Mr. Tierney.

Tom Tierney does a WONDERFUL job of illustating the civil war Fashions in this book. Colored Pencils are a must for this book to fill in all the small details of the costumes. I instantly loved this book and hope to buy more of his historical books!

I love all of Tom Tierney's fashion paperdolls. The paperdoll models are great and the clothes are beautifully illustrated.This book covers examples of 40's day/evening wear. The movie star books-like Garbo and Crawford- feature costumes. I look for the costumes when I watch the old movies. There are some changes, but you know the outfits when they appear on screen! Each costume/fashion has the designer and year listed with it. I have most of his paperdoll books and made a costume from the Carmen Miranda book!!

This book is full of fun and fashionable outfits from the 1930's. They are great to see and gives an exceptional view into top fashions of that era.

I bought this book awhile back it's a good paper doll book especially for you kennedy fans this a wonderful bio book of Paper Dolls of Jackie from when she was a little girl until her timely death this a remarkable book i recommended it !

I was pleasantly surprised by this book. A nice mix of day and evening wear at the turn of the 19th century and good likenesses. It was also great to see a paper doll (Dolley Madison) who wasn't reed thin! A minor criticism would be that the color occaisionally seems clumsily applied, but overall a great book.

These pocket sticker books are excellent stocking stuffers or goody bag treats. The stickers are used to "dress" the doll and then stored on the inside front or back cover. They are resusable for a time (until all of the glue is stuck on little fingers). At 80 or so cents, they are cheaper than a lot of package stickers and more interesting, although a little stereotypical. Kids love them. There is no story line to the books, only stickers and background.

This is a classic piece in numerical analysis.
The book is normally very hard to get hand on.
The sections on discretization schemes and
ODEs are excellent.
Not an in-depth book but an overview book.
Does not cover late developments.
Dahlquist has made significant and well
known contributions to ODE solver theory.
The origin is the department for numerical analysis
at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm,
Sweden ...
A second edition is reportedly under way.

It's a pretty paper doll book of the "Queen Elizabeth I" but still I saw other paper doll book who were more beautiful, this one lack of little details but it's still a nice book if you like to know what kind of wardrobe Queen Elizabeth was wearing and if you are interest in "Elizabeth I" like I do you will like it!
