Adult Reads Kids Series
Book number 14 keeps you on the edge of you seat. I could not put it down until I was done. These kids are more knowledgeable than most adults are about the Bible and how to use the Bible to resolve the problems that they get into. I have read the series as a companion to the main series. It gives insight of how kids react to desperate situations. It gives a difference perspective on the events ...

Vive La Marthe
On October 7 and 8, 2006, C-SPAN 2 featured this book and author on Book TV. The author, now in her mid 90s, spoke in impeccable English for about one hour without notes. Because she used the active voice, her adventures were easy to follow. It was a tour de force. Her parents lived in Alsace when it was part of Germany. But she and her five older siblings grew up in Alsace after WWI when it ...

A teenager's war
We live (as western Europeans or Americans) in a culture where ?war? is something far away, usually on the other side of a TV screen. Our kids are living sheltered lives ? and often we would like to see them even more protected. So, if it?s always difficult to understand the motivations behind a soldier?s will to fight, it?s even more difficult when the soldier is a 18th years old girl. Born and ...

CANT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS
It can't get any better than this! When I found out that Kane and Abel had wrote a novel I begged my mom to get it for me b/c I've hardly heard of a rapper/writer. Specially at the level that Kane and Abel are at. This book blew me away from the beginning to the end. I'm black but i'm not from the hood or any ghettos and i believe that anybody can read this book. ...

Aaron Cohen, Douglas Century

HarperLuxe, 2008

Enthusiastically recommend...
...Mr Cohen's book. Devoured the book in two days. Fascinating perspective on Israel's military, particularly the training behind their elite forces. As an American, I was especially enlightened by Mr Cohen's analysis of our shortsightedness in combatting terrorism here in the states. The Israelis are trained to kill the terrorist. The average US police officer is trained to NOT shoot because of ...

LRRP/Rangers of the Vietnam War
This is an illustrative book well written and true to fact. The information was obtained from those LRRP Rangers who were inserted in the midst of enemy units as 5 and 6 man Special Operation teams. This book is about the men who volunteered to get a piece of the action...and they found it. I know, I was unit one of them. SGT. T. Yoshimura CO H (Ranger) 75th Infantry (aiborne) Vietnam 1970-1971

Richard L. Norton, Sidney D. Jackman

Oak Hills Publishing, 1997

A Great Find!
The memoirs of Sideny Drake Jackman add much to our understanding of the recruitment of Confederate troops in Union held territory, specifically in Missouri. Jackman recruited troops in western Missouri in 1862, and fought them at the bloody engagement at Lone Jack before they were drilled. This account contains the best first person account of the battle of Lone Jack in print. Jackman does ...

The children, as Davidson makes clear, are ...

Marc Howard

Booklocker.com, Inc., 2007

This book presents a different view of public education.
I work with Marc so my opinion may be biased. Marc did not write a book using studies or extensive research citing the latest educational theories. Marc wrote about his experiences in a public high school in Southern California; the book is funny and a little frightening. The anecdotes are true, I've witnessed some of the events Marc decribes. If you are a teacher, or better yet, if you are ...

A bomber pilot's point of view
Today there are many memoirs out by Soviet soldiers; infantrymen, tankers, artillery men, cavalry troops, partisans, even quite a few fighter pilots. But this is the first time I've come across a bomber pilot's memoirs. More so a bomber pilot who operated in the ADD (Long Range Bomber Air Force). These are the pilots, navigators, machine gunners/radio operators who flew, at times as early as ...
