A landscape of emphatic structures
Who would have thought that abandoned grain elevators, old elevated wooden tank houses (to hold water and supply pressure to agricultural areas) and hydraulic mines from California's gold rush would produce such remarkable photos. In the hands of photographer David Wilson these ancient commercial structures take on a life of their own. Sited in the mostly flat Central Valley and slowly ...

JACK THE RIPPER COMES TO LIFE ... AGAIN ... WOW!
This is my second story by this author, and I think he's great in the horror category. Using his awesome imagination, Wilson takes the very infamous Jack the Ripper and brings him to life again ... to entertain us and horrify us. Great job, Mr. Wilson. You scared me out of my hot pink capris! Keep up the good work and you'll be as famous as THE RIPPER was infamous! - Betty Dravis, ...

A stirring example of character and leadership
This cassette should be compulsory listening for ALL leaders. I have heard it dozens of times and it never fails to keep me on track. McCullough's great voice speaking about the character of a great man has produced the finest short audio tape on leadership that I have ever heard. I bought several hundred copies and gave them to managers. Put the character traits of Truman into today's ...

Best Comprehensive Animal Encyclopedia!
We bought this last Christmas for our then 8-year old daughter, who's obsessed with animals. We were thoroughly impressed with the the size of the book, as well as the beautiful photos throughout. In the course of the last year, our daughter has carried this book around with her everywhere, reading excerpts to friends and family as she marvels at the facts found within. She LOVES this book! ...

This book shocked me because it describes my life!
This book lit a fuse for me. I have suffered from Restless Legs Syndrome for 30 years, and until I ran across this book, I had basicly given up on any help. I received the book three weeks ago, saw a neurologist at the Swedish Hospital's Sleep Disorder Clinic in Seattle two weeks ago, and am set up for a sleep test in two weeks! I am so thoroughly excited about all this & have this book to ...

An extraordinary dollhouse explored in depth
England's Queen Mary--grandmother of the current Queen Elizabeth II--commissioned the construction of her extraordinary dollhouse (or "dolls' house" as it is referred to here) in 1921, during her own reign. It resides at Windsor Castle, as it has since being constructed there. Designed by Edward Lutyens (famous for his graceful furniture), the house is a reproduction of Windsor Castle right ...

Truth And Healing Through Reflection
From the moment I began to read this book, I was immediately drawn into the pages and placed in front of a mirror where my heart met Gods'. As God allowed these two men to share their stories with a host of events that had me laughing on one page and tears streaming on another, I realized that my heart didn't look like Gods. My heart looked more like life's circumstances. As pages unfolded so ...

Children will gain insight about America's Christian roots.
Like the adult book of the same title, The Light and the Glory for Children examines evidence for America's Christian roots. The authors reveal a past that is not at all smooth. The challenges of settling this land and building a new nation are shown in their harsh reality. Equally, the faith that strengthened the people for these challenges is presented as inspiration for tomorrow's ...

A THROWBACK TO 1970'S HORROR MAGS
The bronze age of comics is the most overlooked of the various comic book eras. It doesn't have the historical significance of the Golden Age, the panache of The Silver Age's rejuvenation of comic books, or the gritty realism of the Modern Age. But one thing that the Bronze Age could boast, that none of the other eras could, was the great black & white horror magazines of the 70's. Because ...

Excellent myth-busting, informed, easy-to-read study of US immigration policies & issues
If you have always wanted to find out the real scoop behind issues like the integration of undocumented immigrants into the US work force & their effect on the US economy (do they really "steal jobs"? are they "taking jobs Americans don't want"?), what actual legal rights immigrants do and don't have, whether out-of-status ("illegal") immigrants pay taxes (hint: they do), what effects "closed ...

Insightful and Enjoyable
As an evolutionary biologist with a strong interest in literary theory, finding this book was extremely exciting for me, and it definitely lived up to my expectations. The book consists of a collection of thought provoking, well written essays that emphasize the need to incorporate evolutionary theory into the analysis of literature (and a few other art forms) and provide strong examples of the ...

Prowlpuss is for all ages!
I bought this book for the little girl I babysit for's third birthday. I was attracted by the rich colours of the cover illustration, the roll-off-your-tongue title and being a cat person, the subject. When I opened and read the T.S. Eliotesque rhymes, I knew I had to have it. I read it aloud in the car. My eight year-old brother loved it. My forty year-old mother loved it. Thirteen ...

And the Wheel Turns...
The second installment of The Orffryeus Wheel sheds more light on the surreal life that has engulfed Elizabeth Kassel. Some questions are answered while others are raised. I love the build up that Mr. Wilson has accomplished here. The pace and tone of the story reflect the emotions that Elly must be going through as she makes the transition from clerk to keeper of possibly one of the ...

This reminded me a lot of something Poe might have written, or a mixture of Poe and Lovecraft. Very creepy with memorable characters. Good read.

Marvelous! Urgently recommended
Dead But Dreaming was originally released in 2002 from Dark Tales Publication. There was an initial print run of 75 copies and then either sales were slow or the publisher tanked. I may have gotten the very last copy sold at the list price back in 2004. Until now, collectors have been paying exorbitant prices for used copies, up to $300. Now Miskatonic River Press has released a new edition ...

Okay, I'm addicted.
At first, I didn't know what to think about this growing serial. Would it be something I'm going to enjoy, or would I even make it through to the next installment. Well, here I am at part four and I cannot wait to read on. This is a well worked and well plotted story that is attention grabbing right from the very first part. You'll not regret beginning this tale. I look forward to more.
