Sinclair Lewis

Bison Books, 1993

Why couldn't all his books have been like this?
Apparently Lewis didn't become disillusioned and embittered until after 1919, when this absolutely delightful book was published. We have an original copy that my mom got from a library sale or something. She loved it, I loved it, which is no suprise because I am a sucker for sweet old novels, but the most ringing endorsement it that my impossible-to-please dad loved it. In fact, he was the ...

C. S. Lewis

HarperAudio, 2005

Incredible
Of course Lewis' books are great (we all know that) but the narrators in this package of books are spectacular. The narrator for The Screwtape Letters is uncanny (and eerie) in his reading. The narrators truly make this a first class product. I highly recommend!

+++++++ Pop UP Master++++++
I love this wonderful portrayal of Alice's adventures in the form of pop-up art. Sabuda's Pop-ups are a constantly source of amazement for my sister. We are full of admiration for the skill and intricate detail that goes into creating these masterpieces. I got this book last Christmas together with Sabuda's pop-up "Encyclopedia Prehistorica" and Nowiki's short story Why Some Cats are Rascals, ...

HarperCollins, 2004

Americans really are ignorant
Let me start by saying I do not want George W. Bush re-elected, and I don't have any interest in John Kerry running the White House for the next four years either. I left myself open to have my opinions on American government influenced by this book, but I could never have imagined the magnitude in which this book changed my beliefs of our political process. It's no secret to anyone that money ...

The Abolition of Man & the Great Divorce

2 reviews
C. S. Lewis

Blackstone Audiobooks, 2000

C.S. Lewis, still great!
The Abolition of Man is a superb short work. Written in the '40s, C.S. Lewis projects the ultimate result of extending the logic of contemporary secular progressive philosophy on mankind. The Great Divorce is a C.S. Lewis classic deeply probing concepts of heaven and hell. It is a wonderful study in mankind's self absorption and the spiritual blindness that engenders.

Zondervan Publishing Company, 2001

Move on out!
Church is not just about a service on Sunday - but about becoming prepared to really live God's Word - and then living in the Word in our communities. What an inspiration. And I am not a Pastor ... just one of the congregation!

Ingersoll the Magnificent

4 reviews
Robert G. Ingersoll, Joseph Lewis

Amer Atheist Pr, 1983

Yes, Magnificent
This is one of the best books I have read. Ingersoll was one of the most courageous and eloquent spokesmen for Reason. He honored nature, science and liberty and condemned superstition, bigotry, slavery, religious intolerance and worthless ritual in a time when it took great courage to be outspoken. His words have even greater meaning today when the evils of religious fundamentalism and ...

The author of this book hits the nail on the head! If we all could adopt the principals in this book, the divorce rate in America would be greatly reduced. Whether a person is a believer or not, this good biblically backed, common sense approach to marriage, will set your relationship on fire. This book should be a prerequisite to marriage. Allen

Air Gun Digest III
I found this a well written book on the many airguns available. I enjoyed the review and would recommend it to anyone seeking more information on modern airguns. The reviews at the back of the book are very helpful but retail prices would improve the book. Many rare airguns are listed in the book which serves as a valuable resource. The book does a fine job of detailing the many types and ...

Univ of Wisconsin Pr, 1983

Great story that portrays everything about the SS
This book is a great portrail of the hierarchy of the Nazi's dreaded SS. The author goes far beyond the concentration camp guards and explains the feeble begining as a SA battalion into one of the greatest fighting and guard units inside of Hitler's Geermany. This book shows how Himmler came into the the lime life of Germany and how his forces were what helped keep Hitler in power. The author ...

This is a superb text for all helping professionals.
I used an earlier edition of this text during my own doctoral training.
