Angels amongst us
This book is full of Andy Lakey's spiritual three dimensional art, featuring mostly his angels. Besides the full color prints, included are personal insights into his journey that led him to creating his art (he was a car salesman before) and various testimonials about the impact of his art. Skeptics might be turned off and discount him as just another new age spiritualist. However, the fact of the matter is, he has had a positive impact on many people and that is what this book and his art is about. His now famous 2000 angel series for the millenium was the impetus for his effect on countless people. The book is very easy to read and often repetitive, hence the minus one star, but the message is clear and his art shines and brightens the hearts and souls of many people. The oversized print is a background to the dazzling visual imagery Lackey employs with his angels. Of particular interest are the various stories of other people who have been touched by his art, most notably the blind, including Ray Charles. His art is collected by many people, including such luminaries as former Presidents Carter and Ford, Ed Asner, Gloria Estefan and Pope John Paul II, amongst others. This is primarily an art book but the related included stories are an additional bonus. This would make a great gift book, especially but not limited to someone who likes art or needs uplifting guidance. The angels and three dimensional art that come in the book can be enjoyed many times over. The stories will astound you.

BRINGING LOVE TO PEOPLE THROUGH ANGELS
ANDY'S BOOK WAS ONE OF THE VERY FIRST ANGEL BOOKS I EVER READ. I ORDERED & CARRY WITH ME EVERY DAY A MINIATURE ANGEL PAINTING PIN THAT ANDY MADE ME. THE PICTURES OF HIS PAINTINGS & ARTWORKS BRING TEARS TO MY EYES & HAVE OPENED MY HEART TO NOT TO ANGELS,BUT MIRACLES,SAINTS ,ETC GOD BLESS ANDY FOR WHAT HE DOES!!LOVE ,MARSHA LAMPERT MBA WANTAGH NY

A truly loving story, direct from the heart
After being burnt out on intellectual self-help books I was guided by a dear friend to read Andy's well-illustrated book of angels. At first I thought it was doctrinaire, in a dry theological Sunday school way. I was in for a surprise, as the gentle, truly spiritual (as opposed to pious or religious) description of ever-present Angel guides began to take shape. Free of worn-out cliches and aphorisms; it left me with an exhilarating, playful awareness of Angels standing by us in our most everyday activities. A beautiful, sweet and visually trippy book. -J. Alan Rosenstein

a matter of perspective
This book is essential for the library of every scholar of American constitutionalism. For those who have studied the subject, the superb selection of essays on different aspects of American political thought is enlightening. Those who are simply interested in America's founding may however be at a loss and overwhelmed by the wide range of arguments put forward in the different essays even if Gary L.Gregg did an excellent job in the introduction giving an overview to the reader of what he should expect in each essay. Thus, since all and even the American constituiton and its origins is a matter of perspective, this book can only be enjoyed after a thorough study of American political thought. For constitution freaks however it is not only useful to have, it is a real joy to browse through the essays.

Vital Remnants explains America's Constitutional origins
There is a palpable fear that America has lost its way, and perhaps even been untrue to itself. Examples of this loss abound, from school violence to a youth culture nihilism. "Vital Remnants," a collection of essays by some of America's top scholars in history, philosophy, political science, and law, shows, with remarkable clarity, the ways in which contemporary American society has radically altered the course upon which it was originally set. To be sure, our century looks at America with a different set of assumptions than that of our ancestors. "Vital Remnants" gives us clues by which we might stay the course for the benefit of generations to come.

i have seen the wind, and it's cold enough for me
this book opens with blackwood's great story: the wendigo. B is the master of the setting, noone can create the background and atmosphere like him. a very well written story from Brennan here. and Meloff's story is also an interesting read. derleth is at his best here. i don''t care that much for the guy, have never considered him to be HPL's great successor or anything, but he knows how to write, and i have always considered his story about Ithaqua to be his best contribution. the rest of the stories are well written. i don't think any of chaosium's anthologies contains of so much good writing than this. but good is not great. and the rest of the stories never turns out to be really good. the suspence killed by irrelevant writing going on for too long, mostly. sad. but the book is still wort reading
