It shows fine examples of art deco, modern, classical, Greek, Islamic etc. architectural wonders. It not only explains and ...

1 review
Charles Phillips, Neil Grant, ...

Marshall Editions, 1999

Colorful and much fun
Small, perfectly designed, delectable little book, with an amazing 5 or 6 news stories WITH unusual striking photos on each page. About 2 to 4 pages for EACH day of the year, for the whole century! Wow. My copy has shiny silver covers. What a great birthday present, historical reference, or book to have on a deserted island. Highly recommended, hard to find.

50 Renaissance Solos for Classical Guitar (Book & CD)

1 review

Cherry Lane Music, 2005

Good stuff...
This is a great tab book for those who are interested in learning Renaissance guitar. The cd that comes with it is very nice, almost worth the price itself. If you're into that Bard/tavern music/medieval type stuff, you'll love it. I only recently became interested in Renaissance guitar, and this book has been extremely helpful. Some really nice, slow beginner pieces in here, and others are a ...

A Liar's Autobiography: Volume VI

4 reviews
Graham Chapman, Douglas Adams, ...

Eyre Methuen, 1980

The True Python
The title of this highly amusing book is both informative and misleading. Informative firstly because the "liar" part refers to Chapman tendency to drift of into fantasy land and relate stories from Biggles books and other bizarre episodes as if they were part of his life. Misleading secondly because usually autobiographies are written by the subject - whereas for this one much of the writing ...

A Liar's Autobiography Volume VI

8 reviews
Graham Chapman, Douglas Adams, ...

Magnum / Methuen, 1980

Classic
Not your typical autobiography by not your typical writer. A Liar's Autobiography is a now-classic look at the life of Graham, written by Graham (and others) at a time when he felt that, due to his alcoholism, he was not long for planet earth. This proved to not be true (he survived another 10 years and did not die from alcohol-related causes but cancer). At turns hilarious, silly, touching and ...

Topeka Bindery, 2004

Incredible !! A must read!!
Trust me, my nose will not grow by telling you that this book is an absolute must read. Mark Phillips ingenious concept of combining America's favorite tales, with a vocabulary building premise is back. This time for the intermediate vocabulary level with the story of Pinocchio. Everyone knows and loves the story of Pinocchio. As a result, when reading this book, you do not feel like you are ...

Contempt of Court: The Turn Of-The-Century Lynching That Launched 100 Years of Federalism

Mark Curriden, Leroy Phillips

Faber & Faber, 1999

Scary moments of our past
When Leroy Phillips, Jr. came to visit my school in Chattanooga, I was overwhelmed by the knowledge that something like this could have happened in my city. After his talk, I decided to read the book for myself. At first, I noticed that the authors took a lot of time to research the subject thoroughly, so much so that I think they know more about Chattanooga than I do, keeping in mind Leroy ...

Science Fiction Television Series: Episode Guides, Histories, and Casts and Credits for 62 Prime Time Shows, ...

Mark Phillips, Frank Garcia

McFarland & Company, 1996

If you're a fan, save up and get this
It's past time that someone put some thought and effort into a book of this nature. We've had "Science Fiction TV" guides before, and they've uniformly been written by authors whose axes could be heard grinding away throughout as they slagged shows they disliked and drooled over shows they (often unaccountably) were fans of. Mark Phillips and Frank Garcia have done a good job of research and ...

Kolchak: The Night Stalker Casebook

Christopher Golden, John Ostrander, ...

Moonstone, 2007

KOLCHAK LIVES ON THANKS TO MOONSTONE!
When Kolchak: The Nightstalker premiered in 1974, I was firmly convinced it was the greatest show ever. Unfortunately not enough people thought the same way I did and the show lasted a single season...just 20 episodes in all. Despite that, the show has continued to have a strong cult following and re-runs were still turning up on the Sci-Fi channel just a couple of years ago. ABC even did a ...

The Memoir of Marco Parenti: A Life in Medici Florence

1 review
Mark Phillips

William Heinemann Ltd, 1990

Excellent memoir and background info.
This doesn't actually have the actual ricordi of Marco Parenti, the son-in-law of Alessandra Strozzi and a diplomat and merchant of Renaissance Florence, which would have been great, but it IS an excellent resource for learning about how one part of Florentine society worked. There are chapters here about his early life, education, and what Florentine politics were like at the middle of the 15th ...

Guns N' Roses - The Spaghetti Incident?

1 review

Cherry Lane Music, 1994

Look out Dan Brown
I have to admit, ever since the fateful day that the album "The Spaghetti Incident?" was released, I have not been the same person. I listened, over and over, for hours that streamed into days that streamed into years. I have not bought, nor listened to, a single other piece of music since. Every note: calculated. Every lyric: magestic. If you listen hard enough, you can even picture Axl's ...

Honeymooners Trivia

1 review
Mark Phillips

Writers Club Press, 2002

All of It
"Very lucky"-that this book exists. It's the most complete Honeymooners trivia book ever. What does it include? "All of it"; that is, every possible Honeymooners question, in multiple choice format. Ninety percent of the people who buy this book will love it ("actually, I think the percentage is higher than that"). It's easy to make sense of; for example, it's easier to understand than "tax OR ...

The Authentic Guitar Style of Suzanne Vega with Tablature

1 review
Suzanne Vega

Cherry Lane Music, 1989

Excellent book
It's really a shame this book has been out of print for over 10 years; it's an excellent selection of songs from Vega's first two albums, and contains very accurate acoustic guitar tablature. If you ever find it in a used bookstore somewhere, buy it!

Exercises in Psychological Testing And Assessment

1 review
Ronald Jay Cohen, Mark E. Swerdlik, ...

McGraw-Hill Humanities/Social Sciences/Langua, 1998

Great seller
The book was in great shape and arrived in a timely fashion. I would definitely buy from this seller again! The thing to know about this book is that it is not a stand alone book. It is meant to be used along with the textbook by the same author. I thought I was buying a book that would help me learn more about psychological testing, but this book is full of puzzles and other games to help ...

Lerner Publications, 1998

excellent basic immunology book
As a research immunologist, I thought that this was a WONDERFUL introduction to the immune system because it had GREAT pictures and easy-to-understand explanations. My 9 yr old nephew enjoyed it and my boss wanted to buy one for his 7 yr old daughter. A super book for anyone who wants to learn more about immunology. TWO THUMBS UP!!!

An Inconvenient Ideology

Takes liberals to task
This book takes liberals to task on many of their core issues and beliefs. Global warming is there as one would expect from the title. An Inconvenient Ideology also hits on; Illegal Immigration, The War On Terror, Taxation, Education, Hollywood and more. I personally love how Hillary Clinton is exposed for the fraud she is.

Great Read - Takes Liberals to Task
This book is a great read. It covers many of the serious issues of the day, combining hard facts with a humorous spin. It takes many 'top' libs to task such as; Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Jimmy Carter and Ted Kennedy. Rosie and her types are full in the cross hairs as well.
