James Cameron's Titanic315 reviews
James Cameron, Ed Marsh, ...

Harper Paperbacks, 1997

TITANIC REDEUX
The scope of this majestic book truly befits the epic effort by James Cameron with his cinematic masterpiece "Titanic". Much great information here for the movie buff who likes to see how it is done. Incredible sets including the dining salon, complete even to dishes and decor. I was amazed to see how this particular set was pulled underwater by hydraulics to provide a very realistic feeling of ...
  
  











  



  
Brothers in Battle, Best of Friends: Two WWII Paratroopers from the Original Band of Brothers Tell Their Story80 reviews
William "Wild Bill" Guarnere, Edward "Babe" Heffron, ...

Tantor Media, 2007

Felt like I was in the room listening
All of the Band of Brothers books are very good,and this one may be the best told except for the original one by Ambrose. The unigue thing about this book is the way the writer told the story of Bill Guarnere and Babe Heffron together. I don't know if the stories would have been as good if they told their stories in their own seperate books but the way it is told in this book together is ...

Winter's Tale (Limited Edition): An Original Pop-up Journey58 reviews
Robert Sabuda

Little Simon, 2005

"On the 5th Day of Christmas.....Take a Walk Into a Winter Tale"
Over the last 10 years, new kinds of books have surfaced; I am referring to the books that are a product of paper engineering. Students in art schools are often assigned projects wherein they design a miniature site of buildings, a city landscape, a town or village, and even a zoo. This book, "Winter's Tale" is paper engineered by Robert Sabuda. There are only two handfuls of such artists in ...
  
  











  



  
These Happy Golden Years (Little House (Original Series Paperback))56 reviews
Laura Ingalls Wilder

Turtleback Books: A Division of Sanval, 2008

Laura's older, but still fun for kids
In "Golden Years" Laura is a teenager and beginning to live a more adult life- taking her first teaching job and marrying at the very end of the book. My six- and nine-year-olds still enjoyed it, however. There's still lots of play, fun anecdotes, and interesting facts about the time.
  
  











  



  
The Making of " Star Wars " : The Definitive Story Behind the Original Film68 reviews
J.W. Rinzler

Retailer-exclusive titles, 2007

Finally, EVERYTHING there is to know about the film that started it all.
J. W. Rinzler always delivers when it comes to documenting the making-of processes of movies. But I never thought he could out-do himself ten times over in this book. Very simply said: You will NEVER read a more comprehensive book about ANY movie... I mean EVER. Every single piece of information about the first Star Wars movie is simply there, from old early drafts (it is almost shocking how the ...

Harriet Jacobs, Linda Brent

Arc Manor, 2008

Excellent Novel!
Wow! Where do I start? This novel is the epitome of a well-rounded slavery novel! The details were nothing short of amazing! At any given moment, I can find myself vividly imagining the scenery and ambience that the novel speaks of! This is one of my favorite pieces of literature and I believe everyone should experience this vivid account of Harriet's difficult ascent from slavery to ...
  
  











  



  
Adventures in Publishing: How to Publish Color Children's Books with Original Illustrations, and Other Books ...66 reviews
Brent Sampson

Outskirts Press, 2008

Publishing is definitely an adventure
While this book is targeted to the future author of a childrens book, the information applies to all excited authors with a story to tell. When I contacted Outskirts Press for information on how to publish my book (Always a Soldier), I expected a very difficult process in my future. Instead, they assigned me a personal author representative who guided me step by step and made my publishing ...
  
  











  



  
The Coming of Conan the Cimmerian: The Original Adventures of the Greatest Sword and Sorcery Hero of All Time!106 reviews
Robert E. Howard

Del Rey, 2003

OB - Original Barbarian
I don't know why it never occurred to me to read the Conan books. I'm glad I finally did. Robert E. Howard does some great writing. Although the movies cherry picked a few of his concepts, you don't really know Conan if you haven't read these stories. I picked up the three books in this 'series' and loved em all. I say 'series' because it's really just a collection of disjointed short ...
  
  











  



  
Weber's Real Grilling: Over 200 Original Recipes, Each with a Color Photo105 reviews
Jamie Purviance

Oxmoor House, 2005

This cookbook makes grilling much easier
I just have a small gas grill (Weber Q220), so I didn't know if I would get much from this cookbook. But it's great. It would be worth the price if all I learned was how to keep salmon from sticking to the grill (it really doesn't stick!). But the recipes are delicious. The rubs are especially good. I'd like to try everyone of them. I'm just getting started with this cookbook, but it's already ...

Ellen Phillips

Vintage, 1998

Shocked, Appalled, & Dismayed: Highly Recommended !!!!!!!!!
THE KEY TO ALL YOUR TROUBLES: How to Complain EFFECTIVELY ========================================================== After reading the stories of many posters on this site, I can really feel the emotion and frustration and feeling of despair, like no one cares, coming through in your words. Many of you, I am sure, have asked yourself "Why won't the company help me? Aren't I the customer? ...
  
  











  



  
Breaking Free: Making Liberty in Christ a Reality in Life (Christian Softcover Originals)48 reviews
Beth Moore, Dale McCleskey

Walker Large Print, 2006

Funny Freedom Reality
This funny and erudite writer-teacher has produced a dynamic study on the freedom that faith brings in relationship with Christ. She has included personal and third-party vignettes that make points along the way, keeping this practical. Moore is an entertaining and focused communicator. I have had the privilege of hearing her in person as well as on her taped video courses and have read ...
  
  











  



  
On The Banks Of Plum Creek (Turtleback School & Library Binding Edition) (Little House (Original Series ...49 reviews
Laura Ingalls Wilder

Turtleback, 1994

One of my all-time favorite Little House books
Little House on the Prairie was different because there, the family was practically alone, out there on the big prairie. However, the family moves and while they don't really have close neighbors, they're near a town, so the girls get to experience some town life (including church, which makes Ma very, very happy) Of course, the family is not without its problems, like the locusts that threaten ...
  
  











  



  
The Original 365 Cats Page-A-Day Calendar 2007 (Large Page-A-Day)36 reviews
Workman Publishing Company

Workman Publishing Company, 2006

Cats! Cats! Cats!
I've been getting this calendar for years now -- my kids especially love seeing what new kitty awaits them each day (plus, after the pages are removed I often use the reverse to write notes to the kids - they like getting a note with a cute cat on the reverse - and it's some vague form of recycling.) The blurbs that accompany each photo are sometimes informative...mostly basic stuff that a cat ...
  
  











  



  
Hank The Cowdog #1: The Original Adventures Of Hank The Cowdog52 reviews
John R. Erickson

Books on Tape, 2001

Small Farm Adventures
I think a person would have to have at least some background in small farming or ranching to appreciate the humor of this series. I doubt if someone raised on pavement would understand much of the humor. Having said that, for "country kids" this is an outstanding series that will relate to their everyday experience. Hank is one of those that think he is the most intelligent creature but as one ...
  
  











  



  
The Way of Energy: Mastering the Chinese Art of Internal Strength with Chi Kung Exercise (A Gaia Original)41 reviews
Master Lam Kam-Chuen

Simon & Schuster Inc., 1991

Great Health Benifits
There is not much I can add that other reviewers already have not said, but the book and the author deserve praise. The Qi Gong is deceptively simple, but provides you with numerous benefits if you follow through. The practice is called Zhan Zhang, and revolves around standing postures, i.e. "standing stake," or "embracing the ball," a form of standing meditation Qi Gong. In addition to Qi ...

A Novel for All Ages, Especially NFL Fans
In Between Sunday's, Karen Kingsbury takes you into the world of the NFL, specifically the San Francisco 49ers. While the players are fictional, the stadiums and games are come across as accurate and genuine. The novel mainly focuses on three players. Derrick Anderson, an older, seasoned quarterback who comes to the 49ers to mentor and encourage the other players; Aaron Hill, a younger ...

La Bonne Cuisine de Madame E. Saint-Ange: The Original Companion for French Home Cooking38 reviews

Ten Speed Press, 2005

Edifying instruction
This cookbook has provided hours of interesting reading. I love to cook, but I am not intuitive. I have to have instruction. I began with Julia Child's books and gradually added Raymond Olivier, Paul Bocuse, Jacques Pepin, and Mapie, Countess Toulouse-Lautrec. I wish I had begun with Madame E. Saint-Ange. Everything is explained with a wonderful lucidity and the sort of detail I would ...
