How to Grill: The Complete Illustrated Book of Barbecue Techniques151 reviews
Steven Raichlen
Workman Publishing Company, 2001
The stuff that dreams are made of
Bought this book shortly after buying our Weber grill. After having a copy checked out of the library for 2 months, decided it was time to buy my own copy. My husband would take it to bed for evening reading, even had me read him a "bedtime story" from it (recipe for baby back ribs). This book is fantastic for those of us (like me) who need help with the grilling basics, but equally wonderful for ...

The Day The Music Died: The Last Tour Of Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper, And Richie Valens11 reviews
Larry Lehmer
Schirmer Trade Books, 2003
Great Story
This book is great because it not only tells of the careers of those involved in the Winter Party Tour, but also tells details leading up the crash (including stops in many small towns along the way). It was quite informative.
Buddy Holly is the best known,yet most elusive and enigmatic of all Rock 'n' Roll legends.This man was a genius.The way he constructed his songs was sensational.

A You're Adorable21 reviews
Buddy Kaye
Topeka Bindery, 1999
Musical way to learn your abcs
A You're Adorable is a wonderful way to teach the alphabet. The poetic words combined with the catch melody make this book ultra enjoyable. The illustrations are beautiful. Although some may not consider all of the illustrative depictions to be culturally sensitive, the attempts at diversity are evident.

Listen Buddy9 reviews
Helen Lester
Demco Media, 1997
What a great book about listening.
This book was better than I anticipated. Buddy the rabbit goes along his merry way without listening correctly to anyone. Then he runs into the Scruffy Varmit who doesn't put up with little bunnies who won't listen. Buddy almost ends up as Scruffy's soup du jour, but Buddy learns the lesson finally and listens perfectly. My kids love this book with the wonderful illustrations in it. I love ...

The Last Open Road34 reviews
B. S. Levy
Think Fast Ink, 1994
BETTER THAN "ON THE ROAD"
If you grew up in the 50's or 60's and knew a sports car from Detroit iron, and lusted after the former...than this is your book. This is a tour de force of the origins, excitement and naivete of what the attraction was for those weekend racers. Buddy Palumbo is this loveable amateur mechanic, hang-around carguy who through luck and heft manages to have the rides of his life at one of the first ...

Remembering Buddy8 reviews
John Beecher, John J. Goldrosen
Pavilion Books, 1994
Rave On!
This is, hands down, the best biography of Buddy Holly available. I have read them all and though others have their moments (mainly rare photos) they are spoiled with proven factual errors and unsubstantiated rumors. John Goldrosen's book is the standard by which all others are judged.
Goldrosen is a stickler for accuracy and his research is meticulous. He also keeps close to all things ...

Internet Buddy: Web Journal8 reviews
R. Mark Clements
Web Support Services Llc, 2000
Really helpful and hacker safe
This is a really handy book and here are my favorite features:
Spiral bound so it opens flat for easy writing.
Alphabetical organization by website name with sections for each letter of the alphabet. Many people keep their passwords on their computer somewhere, and these could be hacked. Keeping them on paper is safer.
Durable cover.
A decent amount of space for each entry, with helpful ...

A Cold Clear Day: The Athletic Biography of Buddy Edelen6 reviews
Frank Murphy
Replica Books, 2000
excellent
Reading this book was a delight. What got was that Buddy was nobody special at first - just another guy in the American collegiate system. Nonetheless, he took a risk, went to England to train with and compete against the best, and it paid off with a marathon world record.
The glimpses into Buddy's mind are great, especially the narrative portion about the Olympic trials at Yonkers. You can't ...

Andy Tilley
Kunati Inc., 2007
A thoroughly modern, uniquely brilliant dark comedy
A lot goes through your mind when you're precariously dangling upside down from a bridge - blood mostly, but also plenty of vivid insights. You might suddenly, by way of example, realize that your fiancé wasn't all that to begin with and that your best friend is really pretty annoying, so who cares if you caught the two of them sharing a morning-after kiss, and why in the world did you ever set ...

Drumming the Spirit to Life7 reviews
Russell Buddy Helm
Llewellyn Publications, 2000
informative..lots of spirit!
As an uninitiated and therefore shy one in the realm of the drum circle I needed some reassurance. This is the book that will convince you that the drum will drum you if you relax and let it. Ater just a couple of chapters I sauntered into our local drum circle and jammed. Thank you Russell Buddy Helm.

A Truly Amazing Story That Keeps You Moving
On the promise that he won't see combat, John Lefter enlists for a 3 year hitch in the Army Security Agency. I guess, since we are talking about the Army, you know what happens. He ends up in Korea. It doesn't take long until Lefter is in a bunker real close to the front lines. A lot of things happen then and most of them were not good. Once I started Stay Safe Buddy, I had trouble putting ...
