38 reviews
Anne Rice

Random House Audio, 1992

Interview With The Vampire
I knew about Anne Rice, but I had never read any of her books before. I read Interview With The Vampire, and I couldn't put it down! It's one of the best books I've ever read. Now I'm reading the whole set. It was great!

The Civil War: A Narrative (3 Volume Set)

37 reviews
Shelby Foote

Random House, 2006

Excellent series
Here is writing which makes history come alive. I have read other civil war books, but I would say this is bar far the best, most comprehsive books I have read. I beleive it is equal in representation of both the north and the south but there is a slight bias towards the south in some respects. The author puts more a human face to Davis whereas Linclon is not always afforded this. But ...

Marc Leepson

Thomas Dunne Books, 2007

Good description of a desperate struggle
The battle at Monocacy Junction in July, 1864 is not as well known as other engagements during the Civil War. But it may well have been as important, at least, as some better known battles. "Desperate Engagement" describes the context for the battle, its actual occurrence, and then the aftermath and a series of reflections. In short, Jubal Early and the 2nd Corps of the Army of Northern ...

Lincoln the Unknown

23 reviews
Dale Carnegie

Dale Carnegie and Associates, 1959

Outstanding!
Knowing little other than the obvious facts about Lincoln, I was amazed, entertained, and simply captivated by this Carnegie masterpiece. Lincoln's poverty-stricken childhood, his lackluster days as a lawyer, his love of poetry, his political career - it's all covered in great detail and conveyed in a very appealing and straightforward style. Carnegie's research and dedication towards this book ...

Harper Perennial, 2008

Avid Lincoln Reader
I saw James Swanson giving a speech about his other book "Manhunt" and found him fascinating to listen to. he knew facts that I had never heard before and could describe them with such detail I felt like I was watching it happen. I read "Manhunt" and was thrilled to have the details of those twelve days come to life. When I saw this book I snatched it up as quickly as I could. It is the ...

The Impending Crisis, 1848-1861

20 reviews
David M. Potter

Harper Perennial, 1977

A refreshing approach to the pre-Civil War era
Written in the 1970's, and finished by a colleague, David Potter's depiction of the 1848-1861 timeframe is a finely researched book on the subject. Most importantly though, unlike other writers and historians (in particular James McPherson) who look back on this time with modern day hindsight, Potter writes a book which follows this time as it was, with all the issues and ebbs and flows of that ...

Harold Holzer

Simon & Schuster, 2004

How Lincoln got creditable....
Harold Holzer's book on Abraham Lincoln's speech at Cooper Union gives a clarity to the importance of that speech and how it affected Lincoln as a speaker, politican and future candidate for his Republican Party. While Lincoln was well known among the western states, he wasn't that well regarded along the northeastern seaboard. One of the most important things about the book was how the author ...

Abraham J. Heschel

Jewish Pubn Society, 1969

A Standard Reference in the Field
A wonderful, two-volume set that has become a standard reference in the field of the "classical," literary, Hebrew prophets, their prophecies, and their personalities. Amos, Hosea, Isaiah (Isa. 1-39), Micah, Jeremiah, Habakkuk, and Second Isaiah (Isa. 40-66) are analyzed with particular care given to their humanity as they encounter God and men in assuming their respective missions.

God in Search of Man : A Philosophy of Judaism

17 reviews
Abraham Joshua Heschel

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1976

"Wherever we let God in"
The general assumption of people of the modern era has been that we must look for and search for and wait for God. The image is of Beckett's 'Waiting for Godot'. God has disappeared and is not part of our lives and we have to wait for God to return. Or if we are real searchers we would not wait, but would make the effort ourselves looking in various aspects of our experience to find the ultimate ...

Abraham Harvey, M.D. Kryger

Wellness MD Pubns, 2004

Clearly-written, lots of information. Best male HRT book yet.

He knows his hormones and provides a practical, broad introduction to the challenges of maintaining youthful hormone balances in men throughout their lives. I've purchased several of these books and given them to friends. If ...

Vestal Goodman

WaterBrook Press, 1999

Stories of amazing grace, gospel singing
This is such a delightful, inspirational book that I chose to review it for a couple of the Round Table groups in our church. [These are groups of Christian women who meet monthly at a member's home for a book review, prayer-and-share time, food and fun.] I included a couple of video clips of her singing and praying. Vestal and her husband Howard (both recently deceased)led amazing lives full of ...
