Christine Clifford

What a book!

Christine Clifford's keen wit and unique insights --- and, most of all, her humorous personal experiences --- helps to turn a tough pill to swallow into a spoonful of sugar. Christine is America's version of a ...

Stephen L. Harris, 2002

Powerfully visual history ... a very good story
This book is well written, well researched and well titled. I devoured it in three sittings. While the First World War has been eclipsed by the Second World War for most Americans, this story captures a fascinating piece of America's earliest military history as a world power. I particularly enjoyed the vivid descriptions which the author used to recreate the past. The arduous conditions the ...

Kitchen Privileges : A Memoir

Mary Higgins Clark, 2002

A heartwarming autobiography
I have been a fan of Mary Higgins Clark since junior high school when I first read, "A Cry in the Night". As a 31-year old working mother of two, I barely have time to read anything leisurely anymore! Over the years I have read many of her books, but I have found this one the most entertaining to date. This book brought me to tears on more than one occasion. This is a truly inspiring human ...

Ellis Cose

Harpercollins, 1995

Sorry to see it's out of print...
This was easily one of the best general books written in the 90's on the plight of men in post-patriarchal America. Cose is one of the country's top journalists, though he is more well known for his coverage of race-related issues. In this book, he applies his skills to presenting men's perspective(s) and tries to explain why, when they're allegedly masters of the universe, so many are ...
