Thecla E. McCarthy

PublishAmerica, 2006

Lovely, heart-felt effort!
While the narrative can be a little disjointed and lacking in details (how DID she get her children to get along so well!?! How did she manage the drugery? How can we apply what she learned as a secular Franciscan to living out our family lives?) this is a LOVELY memoir of an exceptional woman! And it's very inspiring to consider all that this family did, so far away from our American "comfort ...

Gerald Daniele

iUniverse, Inc., 2005

New Jersey now has its own Garrison Keillor
I'd love to sit around a campfire one autumn night listening to Garrison Keillor and Gerald Daniele swap stories. Mr. Daniele is now doing for New Jersey what Mr. Keillor does so quintessentially for Minnesota. Daniele is a natural born storyteller, expressing himself in essays and poetry with a winning blend of savvy, naivet, and humor. His work somehow reminds me of classic folk songs ...

Wiggin's story is an amazing tale of courage and tenacity and counters the anti-war movement with an in-your-face attitude that embraces virtues such as duty, honor, and country. I reccommend this book to ...
