Dan Montague has created a mysterious and intriguing story around a sailing vessel named "White Wings." This sensitive tale takes place in the coastal New England town of Marblehead, Massachusetts. Readers will find themselves entranced as they are guided through a maze of time and tangled romances in the history of an almost magical sailing vessel. A young high school art teacher begins the journey in the present day. The story twists and turns through time as he becomes involved in the restoration of White Wings - a sailboat entrusted to a middle-aged woman by her long-lost best friend. The young man finds himself trying to solve the mysteries of the vessel's crash onto the treacherous rocks of Marblehead's Fort Sewall, the sudden disappearance of the boat's guadian, and the secret to winning a seemingly impenetrable woman's heart.

Montague has set another novel, "Second Chance," in Marblehead, as well. It is not a sequel to "White Wings," but the excellent quality of writing is of the same.

A heart melting story divided into 4 parts that tells about the lives of 3 outstanding women, Taylor Hayakawa, Rebecca Hayakawa, and Becky DeWolf, or later known as Becky Harrington, and one man, Matthew Adams, who hears and experiences lives of the 3 women, and White Wings, the sailboat that was wrecked in 1973. It's a mystery of Becky's disappearence one night when the boat came back but Becky didn't. It's one man, Taylor Harrington, and one woman, Becky, who experience love, lust, and loss. Then giving up everything she has, she floats off with that one man spending the rest of her life with him. Dan Montague puts everything in perfect form. It was so strong and moving. I loved every second of it. 'White Wings' will always be my favorite book.

It is the sweetest, and saddest book. I'd give anything to be Becky. The ending was so sweet. Dan Montague used the perfect words through the whole book. He's a master at story writing. I'm even moving to Marblehead, Massachusetts because of the book. It's my dream to have a life like Becky. I hope I do.

The city of San Francisco and, to a lesser extent, the nation were throttled in November 1978 when a former city supervisor named Dan White opened fire and killed Mayor George Moscone and city supervisor Harvey Milk. Author Mike Weiss' book is one of the few that ticks down the seconds to the double killing and, though no one knew it at the time, to a social uprising that left much of the city in ruin. That Harvey Milk was the city's first openly gay official sparked a fury in the city's dense homosexual population and ignited speculation that White's motive, in part, was his acknowledged anti-gay position. For many, that two men were gunned down for such a hallow reason was perhaps only a small part of the complete story, and Weiss' book mercifully does not blame White's crime solely on homophobia. Instead, we get a picture of a professionally and financially desperate man whose act may have been largely to avenge his not being reinstated to his job after he resigned. San Franciscans literally exploded, however, when what they perceived as an open-and-shut case of murder warranting a death sentence was deemed by a jury to be voluntary manslaughter, and the protests in the city's streets came to be known as the "White Night Riots" with property damages in the millions. For all practical purposes, the city's nightmare ended with White's suicide after his parole from prison after just six years. This nuts-and-bolts synopsis is greatly detailed by Weiss' vivid reconstruction of the personalities and politics that were on a collision course, and his work emerges as an informative commentary on a major event in the city's rich history. Additionally, while there have been some books written about both Moscone and Milk, few (if any) have been done about their killer. To some extent, Weiss manages to give us an in-depth character study of White and which few other writers have even attempted, much less achieved. In sum, this book has murder, sex, politics and family, their ultimate collision that eventually cost three lives is all the more tragic because it really happened.

This isn't my favorite of the Daystar Voyages series, but it is a very good book. The White Dragon is creepy and the more you discover about Mei-Lani's family, the more intriguing it becomes. I liked the crystals and the part when Ringo kisses Raina.

Cliffnotes are Cliffnotes but who you buy them from is what counts. This seller charges more for shipping than the cost of the book. Shop around guys, highway robbery here!!

I was sugested to read the book the once and future king. I did not know if I wanted to spend that much time on a book so I purchased the cliff's notes. After reading them I had to read the book and it was fabulas. The fact that I already knew what the book was about also helped me understand the book.

A few weeks ago I recieved my school reading list. I was happy that the Once and Future King was on it because I had already read it. I purchased the Cliff Notes. The refreshed my memory with out taking to much time. I also liked how they list the characters and what they did in the beginning of the book. That way if you forget you can always look it up. The comments that are contained also help widen my perspective on what the book means. I think that everyone who has read the book should purchase these cliff notes.

I don't know who the other two reviewers are, but they must be best friends of the author. The last time I read something as plain and uninteresting as Me Too, I... well, I have never read anything as plain and uninteresting as Me Too!

Unfocused and utterly useless words of "wisdom". This book is a boring read that fails on many counts: poor writing, weak anecdotes, and esoteric or overly obvious points.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book...

Really insightful observations....the things that we all know about, but could never put words to. The author seems to know what we're thinking, and can express himself very clearly with personal stories that are relevant to all of us. My mother read this book and gave it to me when finished--she loved it too!!

"Dont bother"--you couldn't be more wrong--are you talking about a different book or something??...Me too is not to be missed...
