Wish I'd read it years ago
This is one of those "I-wish-I'd-had-it-to-read-twenty-years-ago" books about mothering. As the mother of two young adults, I've traveled the years of motherhood that Jill addresses. I was glad to find a kindred spirit in her counsel for mothering and was delighted to learn that she, too, has a "God story" box (for knickknacks that represent spiritual signposts). Warm and practical, filled with ...

Entertaining & Engrossing Book About Players' Demise
Frank Russo developed a terrific website about baseball necrology, and has taken some of his best information into the book, "Bury My Heart at Cooperstown: Salacious, Sad, And Surreal Deaths in the History of Baseball."

The True Story of How the West Was Won
The recent HBO movie based loosely on this book did no justice to these wrenching stories describing the decimation of the American Indian. Can it be that whites simply cannot comprehend the Indian culture and the tragedies tribes endured at the hands of the Great Father (as were called American presidents) and his minions? Visit a tribal reservation and you'll witness firsthand impoverished ...

The Native American's Perspective
This book is essentially a collection of short narrative about the struggles of various Native American cultures in what became the United States. The book is written from the perspective of the Native Americans, and thus has a different emphasis than many of today's high school U.S. History texts (at least not the same emphasis as mine had). I really enjoyed the reading. It was new to hear ...

During the Moon of the Must-Read
There's already been much ink shed reviewing this seminal work by Dee Brown on the "loser's" of the 'Indian Wars' that consumed much of American history in the latter half of the 19th Century. If you don't feel great rage at the unceasing, genocidal campaign by European Americans upon the lands, animals and people of Native America, then you would have felt right at home among the ranks of ...

An Excellent Account of American Native History!!!!
The Indians but I call them American Natives were here in America before anybody else. Sadly, the fate of the American Natives is that there are fewer than them around. Imagine that only a couple hundred years ago, there were millions of proud American Natives with a rich culture. The author, Dee Brown, constructs a very well researched book about the history of American Natives or Indians of the ...
