Saint Ignatius and the Company of Jesus (Vision Books)

Ignatius Press, 1999

"A truly holy experience"
I believe Saint Ignatius of Loyola to be the most faithful servant of God. As a young Christian reader I love to read about saints. August Derleth sure has a way with words! Ignatius was truly a Saint. For me reading this book was like making a friend. I hope you have the same experience I did. "Make a friend".

The Trail of Cthulhu

Carroll & Graf Publishers, 1996

A great Cthulhu Book
I bought this book second hand about 15 years ago and it still continues to be a favoutite. As a life-long HPL fan and a formerly avid Call of Cthulhu player, this book really does a wonderful job of giving some life to all the places that HPL only names.

The House on the Mound

Duell, Sloan, and Pearce, 1958

good historical fiction
I grew up in Wisconsin and have visited the real "House on the Mound". The House on the Mound that is there now is not the one described in and which is the center of this book, but was built by Hercules Dousman's son years later. "The House on the Mound" is historical fiction with Hercules Dousman, Wisconsin's first millionaire, at the center of the story. The book is very good at ...
