Bonnie Sabel, Louis-Philippe O'Donnell

That Patchwork Place, 2007

Positively Postcards
I've bought several post card books before and I find that this is my favorite one of all. She also has kits you can purchase and they are very easy to make. Just a lovely book.
  
  











  



  
Moonraker's Bride17 reviews
Madeleine Brent, Peter O'Donnell

Doubleday, 1973

An English Orphan in the Chinese countryside.
Excellent adventure with an English girl trapped in China. Loveable and brave heroine who makes it back to her strange homeland of England. This book is full of adventure and great writing and characters. You reorient your point of view to that of the heroine's, feeling like an ugly foreigner in China. Then confused by sudden culture shock in England and by being surrounded by lots of ...
  
  











  



  
Ship Ablaze : The Tragedy of the Steamboat General Slocum52 reviews
Edward T. O'Donnell, 2003

Hidden From History
This disaster has been hidden from historical references better than anything I've ever come across. Over 1,000 people die horribly, mostly women and children, and the following has occurred: The 2004 Microsoft Encarta DVD Encyclopedia makes absolutely no reference to this event. The book "New York Times Page One" does not show this as one of it's important front page dates. The book ...
  
  











  



  
Into The Rising Sun14 reviews
Patrick O'Donnell

Blackstone Audiobooks, Inc, 2005

One of the most honest books about combat in the Pacific War
Well, if other reviews don't say it already, this book was one of the more brutally honest books written about war against Japan. Its honest because its brutally politically incorrect. The American soldiers who relates their stories, tell not only of the horrors that the Japanese troops committed but additional horrors of what they did to the Japanese troops. This was no-hold bar combat, where ...

Patrick O'Donnell (editor)

Idea Men Productions, 2007

Amusement for the Weird
How can second-rate gory horror comics be so much fun? I reread THE ZOMBIE FACTORY three enjoyable times, and I still can figure it out!

The Knights Next Door: Everyday People Living Middle Ages Dreams20 reviews
Patrick O'Donnell

iUniverse, Inc., 2004

Buy it! Read it!! You'll love it!!!
In sooth, it matters not if ye be SCAdian or mundane, this book will delight and inform ye. Partick O'Donnell's "voice" is a perfect balance between jaded old-timer and wide-eyed newbie, to what we call "The Dream". His observations are spot on, and witty. His appraisal is honest, neither sugar-coating the bad bits nor over-stating the good bits. As a long time player in the SCA (16 years and ...
  
  











  



  
Stacking the Deck : Secrets of the World's Master Card Architect11 reviews
Bryan Berg

Fireside, 2003

You should see him in action!
This young man is amazing. I booked him for an event I planned at a science center several years ago and his talent is incredible. Then, after all his meticulous work, he took a leaf blower and destoyed his creation only to let the children collect all the cards!
  
  











  



  
Benevolent Dictator10 reviews
James O'Donnell

Amazon, 2007

A page turner no matter your age!
Benevolent Dictator by James O'Donnell.--With technology that will certainly capture the imagination of the Gen-X reader and steam-rolling politicos that older, more cynical types will recognize--this book has the earmarks of a page-turning read. The story captures your attention early on and keeps you riveted to the pages through thrust and counter-thrust of characters and plot. It's a great ...
  
  











  



  
The Angel and the Prince12 reviews
Laurel O'Donnell

Zebra, 1996

My most beloved rainy day book
I adore this story -- the characters are so dimensional and developed. There is a poignacy to their scenes that I have not seen duplicated in other romance novels. I have read and re-read this book so many times its pathetic. I recommend this novel to anyone who wants to find out why we read this genre of books. Fan-bloody-tastic!
  
  











  



  
Modesty Blaise: The Gabriel Set-Up (Modesty Blaise (Graphic Novels))6 reviews
Peter O'Donnell

Titan Books, 2004

When I was little, I wanted to BE Modesty Blaise
I used to read Modesty stories scattered across comic book albumes containing various comics. Now finally I got my hands on first five Modesty books, nicely bound, with creator's comments on almost each story. All in one place, at last.
  
  











  



  
A Common Good: The Friendship Of Robert F. Kennedy And Kenneth P. O'donnell6 reviews
Helen O'donnell, David Groff

William Morrow, 1998

Great book on RFK and JFK
This is a very well written and, at times, touching book by (former JFK Chief of Staff) Kenny O'Donnell's daughter Helen (with a little help from former DNC advance man Jerry Bruno and her late father's audio tapes). There is great information about Kenny's relationship with RFK and, to a leser extent, JFK. As the elading civilian expert on the Secret Service, one word of caution, though: she ...
  
  











  



  
Modesty Blaise9 reviews
Peter O'Donnell

International Specialized Book Services, 1977

Modesty Blaise is one of the most delightful characters in adventure fiction.
It is hard to say whether the Modesty Blaise novels or the Modesty Blaise comic strips are better, but the lucky reader doesn't have to choose. Read both. The comic strips have been reprinted by Titan Books, Ken Pierce Books, Manuscript Press, and in Comics Revue magazine, and now the novels are being reissued. Also highly recommended are the books Peter O'Donnell wrote under the pseudonym ...
  
  











  



  
Letters for Lizzie: A Story of Love, Friendship and a Battle for Life7 reviews
James O'Donnell

Northfield Publishing, 2004

Amazing story of trials and perseverance.
This true life story gripped me as I read about Lizzie's horrific battle to overcome amazing obstacles in miraculous ways. I became part of the story, cheering for Lizzie and fearing the worst with James. Once again, I'm reminded of the truly important things in life--love and family. This is true life heroism. A truly remarkable story with remarkable outcomes.

Animal Friends, Tail Wagging And Throat Purring Stories of Shelter And Rescue Pets8 reviews
Christina Jirak O'Donnell

Christina O'Donnell, 2005

Cosmo'smama
This book is the best I've read about rescued pets. Too many people look at rescue and shelter pets as second best. Nothing could be further from the truth. This book shows pets who have changed lives. Whether they come to us at a time we need a best friend or we rescue them when all of their chances are gone. Animals make lives better every day! Thanks to Chris for telling their stories!
  
  











  



  
The Pro Football Chronicle: The Complete (Well Almost Record of the Best Players, the Greatest Photos, the ...6 reviews
Dan Daly, Bob O'Donnell

Macmillan General Reference, 1990

The best book on the game's esoterica
If any pro football book deserves to be expanded and updated, it's this jewel of an effort. Daly and O'Donnell have produced a fascinating retrospective of all that makes football what it is, and reveal some little-known bits and pieces that even the most studied fan won't be aware of. A pity it's over a decade out of date . . . There are no canonisations and platitudes here (for instance, the ...

Turning Green Wood6 reviews
O O'Donnell

Cassell Illustrated

Turning Green wood
Great and a must have for all turners. The book is more oriented toward bowl turning but covers a ton on green turning with plenty of pics and diagrams. Michael O`Donnell goes to great length to educate the reader on how wood dries based on where it is cut form the tree.
