Walking with the Wind: A Memoir of the Movement

47 reviews
John Lewis, Michael D'Orso

Harvest Books, 1999

Invaluable Primer on Civil Rights and Nonviolence
John Lewis' memoir tells of his pivotal role in the civil rights movement as , literally, its most prominent "fall guy." John Lewis was physically at the forefront of the major civil rights events-getting beaten, arrested, and ultimately, prevailing in the struggle to desegregate the south. He was one of the original Freedom Riders as well as the first person across the Pettis Bridge in Selma. He ...

Blessed Unrest

43 reviews

Viking, 2007

A message of hope for the future
It almost always happens, when I speak in telephone conferences with university classes or with larger groups, that someone will ask if I have hope for the future and, if so, why. My answer has always been an intuitive one, the intuition being that in the last fifteen years or so awareness of the perils we face in the immediate future has expanded explosively-and that this in itself provides ...

Parting the Waters

36 reviews

Simon & Schuster, 1988

Moving storytelling
By most accounts, Branch's three volume history of the Civil Rights Movement is the authoritative account of Dr. King's life. But beyond the facts and history, this particular volume is an example of masterful storytelling. I read this book during my morning and evening commutes, stuffed between strangers on the train. Branch transported me to another time and place, at times on the brink of ...

Basic Writings of Nietzsche (Modern Library)

32 reviews
Friedrich Nietzsche

Modern Library, 1992

This is what you've been waiting for.
Nietzsche IS the greatest philosopher of modern times, and this anthology is the perfect place to start if you're a student or new to Nietzsche. It's also a great bargain and collects several works together that one would be spending extra money on to get separately. I strongly reccomend this, as the works in here ( especially the Geneology of Morals, and Beyond Good and Evil) are key. I have ...

The surprisingly simple help for my ever worsening hip pain
I had always been healthy and active, riding my bicycle, hiking, gardening and was very flexible. To my dismay I began to have pains in my right hip after some fairly vigorous gardening. It got worse and worse as time passed and I tried everything. First a standard exercise class with stretching and some weight work. It helped a bit for a while but the annoying pain in my right hip came back ...

Tarot Plain and Simple

Anthony Louis

Llewellyn Publications, 2002

A Must Have
When I was gifted my first deck of cards 6 (almost 7) years ago, I purchased this book, as it was highly recommended. I haven't purchased another book about tarot in all this time. And even though I've been reading cards for awhile, I still check this book out on occasion. I think it's an excellent book if you're just starting out. Although I've never purchased any other books on tarot to compare ...

Soul Communication: Opening Your Spiritual Channels for Success and Fulfillment

79 reviews
Zhi Gang Sha

Elite Books, 2007

Einstein would have loved this book
Soul Communication by Zhi Gang Sha is a contradiction and an enigma. Based on one simple teaching - that everything has a soul and that all soul seeks to serve - it explains a core reality that Einstein was seeking to formulate, but does so in terms so simple that even a child can understand. Moreover, though completely unique, this book is eminently practical. A hundred years from now, when the ...

Sidney G Tarrow

Center for International Studies, Cornell University, 1989

this book is a "scream!"
When this book first was published, the Hotel Technology department head inadvertently had the college library purchase this book for the department. When it arrived we laughed hysterically about it, and many times, I have laughed about it ever since. Two years ago, I ordered a copy for the library where I am currently a Children's Librarian. It did not even make it to the "stacks", someone ...

Send In The Waco Killers: Essays on the Freedom Movement, 1993-1998

25 reviews
Vin Suprynowicz

Mountain Media, 1999

Libertarian Honesty, from Cover to Cover
Author and journalist Vin Suprynowicz has something to say about the political climate in the United States. He doesn't like the government's excesses of control, the lying, the manipulation, and the almost complete disregard for the constitution. A strong proponent of individual liberty and personal responsibility, Vin covers many topics in this book that relate to government run amok, all with ...

Bound for Canaan: The Epic Story of the Underground Railroad, America's First Civil Rights Movement

29 reviews
Fergus M. Bordewich

Amistad, 2006

More than Harriet Tubman
Harriet Tubman was a great lady, and she did not simply help the slaves to freedom -- she helped move America to a better place. Growing up, whenever I heard or read of the Underground Railroad, Ms. Tubman's name came up again and again. This book expands the vision of the Undergound Railroad and shows it as a part of something much bigger in our history. First, the book does discuss the ...

Egonomics: What Makes Ego Our Greatest Asset (or Most Expensive Liability)

23 reviews

Fireside Books, 2007

Fresh approach to an age-old business problem
This book is a huge advance over their prior tome and worthy of national attention. Almost every page sparked some thought for me which is more than I can say for most of the more than 300 volumes in my personal library on business and leadership. I really liked their idea of duality. This insight excited me and made me say to myself, "I've never thought of that." When the "freshness" of an ...

Eastern approaches

Fitzroy Maclean

Pan Books Ltd, 1956

the truth is stranger than fiction
This is a truly unique book and comparable only with Churchill's 'My Early Life' as an adventure history. Some people write adventure books, some people have adventures but Fitzroy McLean, like Churchill, or TE Lawrence, is able to do both. A rare treat and very easy to read.

Vive La Mathews
From his early punk rocker days to carvorting with todays biggest celebrities, Dan Mathews spins a hilarious web of globe trotting adventures sprinkled with a dash a seriousness that brings light to an important subject matter; animal cruelty. From humble beginnings, success and notoriety certainly haven't changed his life long goals or sparkling personality. If you like Augusten Burroughs style ...

David Halberstam

Ballantine Books, 1999

if you need to renew your faith in America, read this
Halberstam has produced another masterpiece, perhaps his best since B&B. As with Vietnam, this book is permeated by his personal experience as a young reporter full of ambition and working hard to find a story. The story here are the young people, who appeared as if out of nowhere in Tenessee, and entered history with their courage and dignity. What distinguishes this book from others on the ...

The Bonus Army : An American Epic

27 reviews
Paul Dickson, Thomas B. Allen

Walker & Company, 2004

A Compelling Book
Allen and Dickson have written a very compelling book on the history of the Bonus Army, veterans from World War I who converged on Washington in 1932 and subsequent years to demand their promised payment known as the "bonus". The authors give us a good background as to who some of these veterans were, what conditions were like in the country during the years of the First World War and the next ...

The Pilgrim's Progress

27 reviews
John Bunyan

Dodd Mead, 1979

Readable and human parable. A story for all times.
The first time that I encountered Christian and his pilgrimage was as a preface and a family favorite in the book Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. Unfortunately, it was not until twenty-something years later that I actually got around to reading the book itself. If I were you, I would not wait that long. The first part of the current combined book appeared in 1678. Bunyan, a nonconformist ...
