Footprints of the Soul: A Creative Guide for Spiritual Journey Groups and Individuals 1 review
Elizabeth Wood Willey
Footprints Of The Soul Llc, 2003
Excellent resource!
I ordered this book to help me prepare to lead a Christian spirituality retreat recently. I found this book very helpful and plan to use it again. It is also excellent reading for those seeking solid spiritual formation. The CD is helpful as well, and what is on the CD is available in the book, so you can use those resources without the CD. Overall, this is one of the best resources I have ...

Girlie and Buddy: The papers of Elizabeth Cook Wood Blystone1 review
Elizabeth Cook Wood Blystone
J.W. Blystone, 1989
My first copyrighted work.
During my recent move, I discovered 2 copies of my original 1989 edition of Girlie and Buddy - The Papers of Elizabeth Cook Wood Blystone. While crude by today's standards, I still remember typing much of it painstakingly on a manual typewriter for days at a time. It also prompted me to buy my very first computer back in 1989, just to be able to correct errors. There were only 15 copies ...

Voices in St. Augustine5 reviews
Jane R. Wood
Bluefish Bay Publishing, Inc., 2004
Jane Wood writes the best books for kids of all ages!
So far Jane Wood has 3 books out and they are all awesome. As a teacher my students can't wait to begin the school year by reading her books. I teach ESE students with severe mental and physical disabilities. Most of them had never read a book before and these students are ages 16-22. After quickly getting hooked on Jane's first book they were like sponges wanting to learn to read. Two years ago ...

Adventures on Amelia Island: A Pirate, A Princess, and Buried Treasure4 reviews
Jane R. Wood
Florida Kids Press, 2007
Excellent children's book!
This is an excellent children's book. Even though I am not a child nor have
children, I read it. I speak English as a second language and reading
children's books is a great start for me to read in English. The language
used in the book was easy to understand and provided great deal of
vocabulary. I enjoyed reading about Florida's local history that the book's
characters Bobby, Joe and ...

I Hauled These Mountains in Here1 review
Frances Elizabeth Wood, Dorothy Wood
Caxton Printers Ltd, 1977
I Hauled These Mountains In Here
This out of print book is a facinating story of the settlement of the Colorado Rockies. It details the freight wagons role in carrying supplies to mining camps from the rail head. The book is full of personal interest stories that both inform and facinate.

Trouble on the St. Johns River3 reviews
Jane R. Wood
Florida Kids Press, 2008
Kudos from a science teacher
As a former science teacher, I appreciate the accuracy of the ecological information that the author shares in her book. I have seen how students in the classroom get excited about the story. It captures their attention and makes them more aware of environmental issues. The resources in the back of the book can be a valuable resource for teachers, parents and students.

Beard's Massage
This book covers everything a massage therapist needs to know, things I wasn't even taught in massage school. If you want to know it all, get this book. It is wonderful and I plan on using it as THE massage book for the massage school I am opening this year.

Queering the Pitch: The New Gay and Lesbian Musicology, 2nd Edition1 review
Routledge, 2006
Homosexual scholarship for all
This is a tremendous anthology of homosexual scholarship on classical music. Particularly persuasive is the chapter in which Schubert is 'outed' with reference to his 'Unfinished' 8th Symphony. Who could deny that the deviant use of harmony constitutes anything other than overwhelming proof of his sexual inclinations? I whole-heartedly support the author's view that Schubert's body should be ...

The Bronze Bow 96 reviews
Elizabeth George Speare, Mary Woods
Blackstone Audiobooks, 2001
Only one of my favorite books
This has got to be one of the best books that I have read. It started out a little slow for me, but once I got into it, I really liked it. It has a really good message to it, and it was really inspiring to me. I read some reviews about how it was too detailed or boring, but that is not true at all. It is not a total action book, but that is not what it is meant to be. I loved this book and ...

Plains Earthlodges: Ethnographic and Archaeological Perspectives1 review
University Alabama Press, 2005
Fantastic resource
This volume is a great resource combining information from people with experience in this subject. The take on gender and rights in certain aspects of lodge construction seems a bit odd or out of place, an exercise in critical analysis for the reader who sometimes does jobs usually assigned to the opposite sex. The diverse approaches of the various authors provides insight to what is known about ...

Queen Salote adds to this uniqueness by being the ruling queen of Tonga in the first half of the Twentieth Century, an era dominated by male chauvenism. This story of her life and reign provides ...

Elizabeth Wood-Ellem
University of Hawaii Press, 2001
Great Find!
After trying to secure this book through Barnes and Nobles, I was told that there would be a delay on the shipment date. That would just simply not work as it was a present for a friend, so I turned to reliable Amazon. As a Peace Corps Volunteer from the South Pacific, I try to read as many books about that region of the world as possible, but it is often extremely difficult to find books about ...

SONGBIRD BY THE WINDOW
This is a must for every child (and adults). The pictures are great, but the story will touch your heart. You will grasp a positive message of finding happiness. It's a kids book, but it can enlighten all ages. Everyone should read this book. If you like animals, this will be extra special for you.
