Revolutionary Brotherhood: Freemasonry and the Transformation of the American Social Order, 1730-1840

4 reviews
Steven C. Bullock

The University of North Carolina Press, 1996

An essential volume to understand early America.
As the first third party in an American presidential election (1832) the Anti-Masonic Party has usually appeared suddenly in the story of the Jacksonian Era with little explanation except that the Masons were suspected in the murder of one William Morgan, who threatened to reveal their innermost rituals and secrets. The prosecution of the case was hampered by the fact that Masons dominated local ...

A Titanic Hero, Thomas Andrews, Shipbuilder

Shan F. Bullock

Amereon Limited, 1996

A man who shone like a star
Anyone who has ever looked at Thomas Andrews' photograph and wondered what sort of man he was will be fascinated by this book. A Managing Director of Harland & Wolff, he regarded the shipyard workers as his 'pals' and was equally loved and respected by them. The story of the men weeping when all hope of his being saved is heartbreaking. Shan Bullock shows why he inspired such love and ...

The Cave Painting: A Parable of Science

10 reviews
Roddy, M Bullock

Access Research Network, 2006

Excellent. Worth Reading.
I found this book to present a unique perspective on evolution and intelligent design. Unlike most books that are heavily into theoretical arguments, the Cave Painting illustrates the debate with an allegory -- highlighting presuppositions and logical flaws. If you prefer more detailed and scientific reasoning, the second HALF of the book is a thorough set of endnotes including copious quotes ...

The only beverage book that includes lost and almost-lost cocktail recipes from before 1920, 173 Pre-Prohibition Cocktails: Potations So Good They Scandalized A President is an amazing glimpse into the history of liquor in America, as well as a collection of so many different drink preparations that even the most gregarious connoisseur is certain to find something new and especially intoxicating. ...

Deborah Bullock

Xlibris Corporation, 2003

Reality Romance
I loved this book! I could identify with the heroine -- her life's wishes and dreams rang so true to my own. It was a joy to read -- very absorbed in all of the plot's (and sub-plot's) twists and turns. Get out a box of chocolates and enjoy this one. If only it were real....

Lions, Tigers And Bears Volume 1: Fear And Pride

4 reviews
Mike Bullock, Jack Lawrence

Image Comics, 2006

BRILLIANT all-ages read
This is one of those comics that I found relatively late. I didn't read it when it first came out, and now I've caught up and can't wait for more. Jack Lawrence and Mike Bullock have crafted a story with a very simple premise: stuffed animals are really alive, and have been charged since the beginning of time with the task of protecting their children from the "Beasties" (literally the monsters ...

The Phantom Chronicles: New Tales Of The Ghost Who Walks!

4 reviews
Craig Shaw Gardner, Jim Alexander, ...

Moonstone, 2007

Lee Falk would be proud.
These stories are bringing The Phantom back to life and doing it very well. There is one story I found to be a long stretch, but I'm not reviewing stories, but a volume of stories. In this volume the Deep Woods call, The Ghost Who Walks remains undying, justice prevails over the darkness of the world, and even when The Phantom seems helpless, he is just about ready to make his next move. A must ...

Armored Units of the Russian Civil War: Red Army (New Vanguard)

2 reviews
David Bullock

Osprey Publishing, 2006

A brilliant book
This volume, though slim, addresses the equipment and tactics used by the nascent Red Army during the Russian Civil War, a subject NEVER addressed in any other book I've ever come across, other than a few lines here and there. Tanks were, of course, a new technology in 1918. Invented by the western Allies, tanks found their way to Russian depots and later fell into the hands of Red Guards, who ...

Seminal study
For the first time, a team of international researchers (one American and two Russians) brings together the story of the armored units of the White Russians in each battle theater. These are the first color depictions of White armored trains world wide. Tanks and armored cars are also examined as well as their impact on the Russian Civil War. Even here, the authors and artist break fresh ground, ...

The New Fontana Dictionary of Modern Thought

3 reviews

Fontana Press, 2000

Very Valuable
I have many dictionaries on my shelves -- among them dictionaries of theology, philosophy, and sociology. I bought this dictionary at an airport, not really being sure how useful it would be. In fact it is a relatively new concept, having originated in the 1970s with Alan Bullock and Oliver Stallybrass. They felt that an ordinary dictionary contains "thousands of words familiar to us all", ...

Peter O'Shea's "The Great South Woods" is a detailed and heartfelt account of the flora, fauna, geography and people of the Northwestern part of the Adirondack Park. All the native creatures of the area are described in detailed narratives similiar to one heard around a deep woods campfire.

I'm Not Stiller

3 reviews
Max Frisch

Methuen Publishing Ltd, 1982

I'm Not Miller
"I'm Not Stiller," by the Swiss writer Max Frisch exudes postwar high seriousness; it cannot wait to show off its many layers of meaning. First, "A Note to the Reader" informs us that we are being permitted to study "The strange history of Anatol Ludwig Stiller, sculptor, husband, lover . . . prisoner": the notebooks he wrote while in prison and his prosecutor's postscript. Then come several ...

It teems with suspects ranging from local environmentalists to the cast of a local production of The Mikado. The title of the book comes from the Lord High Executioner's song, "A Little List," that Ko Ko sings because he hasn't met his quota of executions, so murder is afoot. Constable Danutia ...
