Nothing Else Comes Close
The Journals of Lewis and Clark are about as fundamental a Western American treatise as you will find. Tackling this leviathan is a daunting challenge but one with great rewards. Clark copied Lewis word for word on many entries so it takes true dedication to read every word of the text. Throw in the maps, the preparatory work of Lewis and related ephemera for good measure. This will not only ...

A "MUST" read!
This volume details the thoughts of Lewis and Clark, and others as they determine which major waterway to follow to the Great Falls of the Missouri, their first significant obstacle. The portage around the great falls is more than they imagined, and is explained in great detail. It explores the many new discoveries in the interior of what is now central and western Montana. This volume also ...

An outstanding book.
Lost architecture has long been a passion of mine: there's something so humbling and bittersweet about buildings that exist now only in memory or on a few frames of precious film. After reading great works on the subject such as Constance Greiff's LOST AMERICA or Larry Millett's LOST TWIN CITIES, I had often complained, "Why isn't there a book like this for my home state?" I can complain no ...

The Standard by which All Obstetrics Texts are measured
There is perhaps no medical specialty that has more misconceptions, "wives tales" and variation than Obstetrics. Williams Obstetrics is more exhaustively comprehensive than any other text for general Obstetrics. Williams has long prided itself on presenting "evidence-based medicine" - separating the wives tales from medical knowledge obtained from published studies from peer-reviewed journals. ...

Should be required reading
Lewis and Clark's descriptions of their epic overland journey is a deserved American classic. So many students must memorize the Gettysburg Address or the Preamble of the Constitution, but too few are ever introduced to this magnificent trilogy, told in Lewis and Clark's own words. They were the first white men to lay eyes on the interior sections of the Unites States, when the land was ...

Terror and Triumph
"The African American Odyssey" just got better with the release of the 3rd edition. Updated accounts, in-depth coverage, a broadened focus (the American West, and beyond America), and the wonderfully helpful enclosed CD which allows for additional research, all make this a comprehensive volume for any and all students of African American history. The blending of the famous and the unknown, men ...

Fascinating Story, Can't Stop Talking, Use Google Earth!
I read books in a wide variety of topics. I decided to read about Lewis and Clark because I felt I just did not know enough about it and I felt that I should. When I received the book, I opened it and was fearful that I made a mistake because it was made up of journal entries, day by day in Lewis and Clark's own words. I started reading and I found myself immmediately engrossed in the story. I ...

Mr. Holmberg's new forthcoming edition of letters discovered in an old Louisville, Kentucky estate some two decades ago will shed new light on many long unanswered questions regarding the life of William Clark, of Lewis and Clark Expedition fame. Aside from being an archivist at Kentucky's prestigious Filson Club which holds its own substantial William Clark collection, Holmberg is himself an ...

Excellent Reading
Read right from the journals, alternating between Lewis and Clark (and so designated), their account of discovery, bravery, survival, not to mention sheer luck at times. This book cannot replace the editorials and depth of "Undaunted Courage" by Stephen Ambrose; but it is very enjoyable and informative to read directly from the authors of this historic expedition. I am amazed at everything ...

Superb
Fascinating beyond measure, and a work that should be read by anyone who has experience in academia, this book details the history, attitudes, and influences behind the modern research university. The latter has been subjected to harsh criticism of late, and some of this is justified, so this book will be helpful in assessing the validity of this criticism, in addition to providing information to ...

From book's back cover: "The Chinaberry Tree, both poignant and hilarious, is an autobiographical account of growing up in a small Southern town during the Great Depression, and of reaching adulthood in the treacherous times of World War II and the Korean War. Humorous accounts of childhood antics and family life during these hard times are interwoven with tales of family unity, tolerance, ...

A serious man for a serious time
It's a shame about Ben Franklin. A printer, inventor, statesman, diplomat and patriot, he played a huge role in bringing America to birth. Yet when he is impersonated today, it is so often as a buffoon - a wit-spilling, innocuous jolly chubby comic. Ronald Clark's "Benjamin Franklin: A Biography" puts the lie to Franklin-as-comic-distraction, placing him at the center of a very serious America ...

A Terrific Collection of Tall Tales!
Anyone who ever laughed at the exploits of tall-tale heroes such as Paul Bunyan will instantly recognize the character of the Baron von Munchausen as the king of such heroes. His amazing and daring exploits are rife with hilarity and implausibility. It's part fairytale, part tall tale. The Baron is a figure of pure imagination (loosely based on a real person), a Quixotic figure. Do not confuse ...

Great eye opener. MUST READ. Smooth reading.
To keep it plain and simple: After reading this book I've come to the conclusion that African-American history is an essential read, especially with this book. Often times, some of us may not think African-American history is rich or we may not really understand their situation in America today. This book changes that, it teaches that African-Americans have a rich history and that books like this ...
