Mary Carol Miller

University Press of Mississippi, 2007

A "must have" book
Miller and Carter have once again produced a magnificent melding of words and images. This is a classic work that transcends interest in a single state and a valuable addition to the library of anyone interested in Southern or architectural history. I don't live in Mississippi, but this book will be on my gift list for many friends across the country.

A masterfully written novel-it will capture your heart!
This is a book that I simply could not put down. Carol Rose has brought to life an era long since past.

The author has the ability to draw you into time and place and to bring the characters in the story to life. "Rose of Sonora" is a story that you will never forget--I know I won't!

Chase von, at the author's request...
At the author's request, I am publishing this review since this individual has had quite a few problems trying to post it... I as the publisher have refrained from doing reviews on books I have published because I am sure people will think my opinions are biased. I will say I don't publish books I don't think are good:) "Peek a boo was simply that, a wonderful glance into the heart of a ...

Written in the Bricks: A Visual and Historical Tour of Fifteen Mississippi Hometowns

Mary Carol Miller

Quail Ridge Press, 1999

Stunning photography and fascinating text
Written in the bricks is more that just a beautiful coffee-table book. The stories contained in the accompanying text really highlight the uniqueness of Mississippi and its people. Rather than simply describing the photographs, the text invites the reader to see beyond the walls to the people who inspired the architecture and worked on the buildings. I recommend this book to anyone who ...

Giants Monsters and Dragons: An Encyclopedia of Folklore Legend and Myth

Carol Rose

ABC-CLIO, 2000

Fun -and- educational.
This is one for both the scholar who needs a quick reference and the casual enthusiast looking to impress friends with mythical trivia (not that many people have friends who are so easily impressed). If you have any interest, academic or casual, in the mythical beasts of yore, I highly recommend Rose's encyclopedias (this, and the "sequel," which contains more benign beings). It's ...

Gene Strandberg

Lodgepole Press LLC, 2008

A work of compelling social commentary
Tobacco kills more Americans every year than war. It kills more Americans than traffic accidents. It is more addictive than heroin -- and more damaging to the human body. It is one of the most lethal legal drugs that Americans can purchase without a prescription. Gene Strandberg became aware of what tobacco does to human health and decided to write "Murder Incorporated? The Tobacco Industry" when ...

The Crusades

Anthony West

E. M. Hale And Company, 1954

THE CRUSADES by Anthony West
The Crusades, written by Anthony West and illustrated by Carl Rose, provides a brief overview of the First through Fourth Crusades. This volume is just under 200 pages, which barely enough space for West to cover the who, what, why, where and when of things (most everything but the "what" is often glossed over). West focuses on the people he sees as the key figures of each Crusade: Peter the ...

Spirits, Fairies, Leprechauns, and Goblins: An Encyclopedia

Carol Rose

W. W. Norton & Company, 1998

Just what the title indicates
This is an amazingly comprehensive volume cataloguing spirits--supernatural beings less powerful than deities--from cultures around the world. A book like this is hard to summarize in a review, but it suffices to say that this is a wonderfully broad overview of the subject, covering every culture and every spirit you can think of, with only a little bit of oversimplification. (Durga, for ...
