Justice Denied: What America Must Do to Protect its Children7 reviews
Marci A. Hamilton
Cambridge University Press, 2008
Hamilton hits the nail on the head.
Marci Hamilton shows that state legislatures could, with a veritable stoke of the pen, do more much to protect children. What stops the legislatures are special interests, but "Justice Denied" has the potential to launch a civil rights campaign that puts children first.

Grief Denied: A Vietnam Widow's Story14 reviews
Pauline Laurent
Catalyst for Change, 1999
"Grief Denied: A Vietnam Widow's Story"
I was so touched by the reading of this book, that I cried like a baby for the first time since I returned back from Vietnam. I was there myself and knew many men, such as Pauline's husband. I just never realized how much grief and stress that those left behind had suffered. Pauline is an example of someone who has had to learn how to cope and deal with the death of her husband, without any road ...

Enemy Access Denied: Slam the Door on the Devil With One Simple Decision5 reviews
John Bevere
Charisma House, 2006
Enemy Acess Denied
What an eye opener! I loved the book the Bait of Satan, but this one was even better. Very Biblically Based, constantly used scriptures to amplify the point that the Holy Spirit was using him to get through to the "Church of today." It's changed the way I pray, teach, preach!
Thanks again for selling such a great book!
Sincerely Rev. RCF

Roger T. Aeschliman
AuthorHouse, 2007
Finally, the truth from someone who was there
Thank you Roger for putting a face on the Iraq War and the Americans who are trying to fight it inspite of the left wing press. You can listen to so-called pundits every night on the news spouting their point of view. But this book comes from someone on the ground. I know the author and he is no one's fool. If this were a lost cause he would quietly do his job and then just come home. Read it and ...

H.H. (Pete) Bradshaw
PublishAmerica, 2004
Ney: 18th Century Chameleon
The time and research put forth on Execution Denied pay off in the finished product. You needn't be a history buff to be moved by this compelling novel. Marshall Ney had to be the "Bravest of the Brave", both in battle and in political suvival skills. Ney 's portrayal is fascinating on many levels. Bradshaw does a great job convincing you that Ney not only survived his enemies, but went ...

Doomsday Denied: A Survivor's Guide to the 21st Century (Millennium 2000 Books)1 review
Stephanie Ocko
Fulcrum Publishing, 1997
Great handbook of problems of the day.
This book -- 21 chapters from ozone depletion to psychics - is a big bang for the buck. Each topic is covered in a no-nonsense style that tells it like it is. If you've ever wondered (as I have) what global warming is really all about and why it is controversial; or where alien abductions should fit in your life (am I next?); or what we should really worry about (plutonium and terrorism are high ...

DENIED - THE SEARCH FOR SAUDI JUSTICE1 review
J. Dickson
1st Books Library, 2003
Awesome book from a great new author!
This book is great, it shows just what really goes on with government cover-ups. In addition to Mr. Dicksons reader friendly writing style he also includes actual scanned correspondance with various polical figures which really helps convey his frustration with how "helpful" our government is to the average citizen. It's certainly an interesting book to read, especially with all that's been going ...

as I remember mom..
Having known Nellie Williamson in life I read her life story by Georgina ("Geor") with tears in my eyes. My best friend is Nellie's daughter, Laurie. Since "Mom" didn't drive, Laurie would run her to bingo or to the slots that she enjoyed so much. She had a knack for knowing which machines would pay out. Oftentimes I would be present for those runs, or we'd bring her what she needed to her ...

Extraordinary, Beautifully Put Together, Basic Reference

An edited work, with ten primary authors, it actually reflects the collaborative efforts of an international network of collaborators, and can safely be considered the seminal basic reference on this topic.
The first 150 pages include an introduction and six chapters, on measuring global ...

Access Denied: How Internet Filters Impact Student Learning in High Schools1 review
Lynn Sutton
Cambria Press, 2006
Solid research on a timely topic -- a must for every library
Enjoyably readable depiction of high school students' research restraints -- compounded by do-good (but know-nothing) technology administrators who promote fear (and loathing) in lieu of ready access to crucial information. Makes you wonder when we're going to collectively grow up. Answer: when more people read and understand this compelling and concise examination of what they're (not) ...
