Mallory is basically a legend in mountaineering. The authors tell the story of their own search expedition by making it parallel to Mallory's. For example, we see the logistics it took this expedition in 1999 to get everyhitng to Everest ...

simplicity evocative of simple roots and candidly focused as thru a child's perception, masses of color infuse work with enormous strength of statement. composition redolent of A. Wyeth's dynamism,executed with a flatness approaching Braque: an artistic tour de force.

Absolute Honesty: Building a Corporate Culture That Values Straight Talk and Rewards Integrity

AMACOM, 2003

Absolute Honesty
I enjoyed reading this book because anyone can relate to it. There are always "real" stories in each chapter which is an excellent way to describe what the writers are trying to emphasis. "Absolute Honesty" is also a wonderful book for women. Many times women find themselves in situations where they want to be honest, but are extremely uncomfortable or fear they won't be listened to. ...

Must Read for "Bird" Fans

He captures the essence of Larry Bird, from his childhood to his journey through high school and college to his emergence as both a basketball legend in the NBA and a larger-than-life sports hero in Boston.

Ghosts of Everest: The Search for Mallory and Irvine

The Mountaineers, 1999

A great book that answers some questions but creates more questions.
I had never heard of Mallory or Irvine until the day the news mentioned Mallory was found. All these years later I decided to read this book to answer the curiosity I had over them. I am intrigued with the question of did they reach the summit before they died back in 1924. Many have argued they failed and the authors decided to see if they could answer the debate. This is a good read ...

Poetry of the Soul
This is a fantastic book and should be a part of every fourth and fifth grade classroom. The story gives a soul stirring look at life for a minority in the late 1800's in such a way that children can relate to the emotions experienced and actions taken. The story shows how even a child can respond to challenge prejudice and unfair bias in a mature way. It would also be a great introduction to a ...

Detailed but Dry
Educational Research is definetly a book for someone who is getting serious about research, but has not had much past experience. This book outlines many of the concepts and aspects that need to be involved in both qualitative and quantitative research. Most importantly, it gives good examples of each concept. The only downside to this book is that the subject matter tends to get a little dry ...

All hail the Kings of Cooking!
I watched the guys from the early days. Great humor and the food was not too bad either. Larry and Laban were nuts and Doris showed up from time to time with something tasty...great show. This book has a nice variety of simple home cooking ideas. I tried many of the dishes and was only disappointed on the rare occasion. I would love to have all of the old shows on DVD; now that would be ...
