Beautiful comfort
This easy-to-read book is excellent for people who find themselves in survival mode. The book is very portable, small enough to slip into a handbag. The illustrations display hope, safety, and love, and the words speak comfort and solace. I gave this book as a gift, and I am thoroughly impressed with it. Author, With Great Mercy.

Color of Leather is not Tan,
I just received this beautiful devotional and it is just as stated in description except that it is not "Tan", it is dark saddle brown. I love the size and feel of it and the readings are 100% scripture and very easy to remember during the day. Highly recommend this as a personal item or gift.

Countryman Press, 1997

Wonderful Book
I read most of this book while hanging out in a camp in the Adirondack's so was able to put the author's observations to the test as soon as I finished reading a chapter. The author does a great job of explaining what you might observe and gives you the tools to enjoy the mystery of the scene. It gave me an appreciation of the woods that I would not have been able to enjoy otherwise. For those ...

Truly inspirational
I just received this little book as a Christmas gift. I love the way Max Lucado has put it together with daily inspirations and Bible quotes. The beginning of the book is very precious.......it is a lovely book and as a gift book, beautiful....I set it by my bed and read it each and every night. As he says "Grace was created by God and given to man."

Finally!!
FINALLY a decent "healthy cooking" cookbook for a two person household!! I haven't yet tried the recipes in this book (but I'm making a list.) I have "The Eating Well Diet" and "The Essential Eating Well" cookbooks. I also subscribe to the magazine. So far, the recipes have all worked. I HIGHLY recommend any of these cookbooks as well as the magazine. I purchased my sister a gift subscription to ...

The Essential EatingWell Cookbook

32 reviews

Countryman Press, 2006

Easy to prepare, fantastic flavor, healthy but not over the top.
I bought this book about a year ago and I use it all the time. I am not the kind of person who cooks or eats "low-fat" meaning that I use butter sometimes, I use cheese and I like my food to be flavorful. I do, however, also like my food to be healthy in the sense that it provides me with plenty of vitamins, nutrients, fiber and heart-healhty fats. This book is exactly that. Firstly, I like ...

King Arthur Flour

Countryman Press, 2003

King Arthur Cookbooks are the BEST
Everything King Arthur is fantastic. I have made many, many recipes from the King Arthur cookbooks and every one without exception has been phenominal. They perfect the recipes in their test kitchen and using their flour makes everything taste exquisite. I highly recommend this and all their other cookbooks....which I also own.

Should be a collector's item!
I've heard "Mary Did You Know" at Christmas time for the last maybe 4 years and thought it was so beautiful. This past Christmas I purchased this booklet with CD after comparing all those who recorded the song and Mark Lowry's was without a doubt the best. Our family (18 of us) get together Christmas Day for a time of celebration and a feast. Just before forming a circle holding hands around a ...

The BEST hiking guidebook!
I am an avid hiker of the Appalachian Mountains from the Carolinas to Maine. As such, I have purchased my share of guidebooks. Without a doubt in my mind, this is the best guidebook ever published. It reads more like a novel. I live in both Florida and New Hamphire and I find myself picking up this book to read for pleasure when I'm in Florida, 1000's of miles from the White Mountains. This book ...

Countryman Press, 2004

Shortcut
This book was amazingly specific in directions of how to best view an incredible scenery. It was great more for its direction of where to go, park, or stand than the photography tips. The author gave great detail such as tips for how to find the best parking lots, how to avoid the tourist packed spots, and how to find unmarked trails to find fantastic angles in isolation. We used it as our ...

Spectacular views, challenging hikes, and an evening ended with a cold beer overlooking the terrain you have just climbed. The hikes, hotels, accomodations are all clearly described. The food, at the hotel we stayed was excellent, family style. ...

Backyard Sugarin'
Tioga County is farming country and most farms in these parts used to have a sugar shack. Vermont might get better promotion and produce more, but there's nothing better than Grandma's flapjacks topped with homemade syrup from the farm. If you've a hankering for homemade and want to try making your own, then Backyard Sugarin': A Complete How-To Guide, by Rink Mann will show you how. This book ...

This book is great!
Before buying this book I first checked it out at the library because I don't need any more useless cookbooks in my house. I was thrilled to find that this book is not only a great cookbook but also an amazing source of heart-health information. Having a strong family history of heart disease, I must be very diligent about maintaining a heart-healthy lifestyle. This book answered every ...

Michele Bigley

Countryman, 2008

Great Book on Kauai
Excellent book for planning a trip to Kauai. The book includes many maps, pictures and 13 page section on the history of the island. The author obviously has a great love for the island and this sets the book apart from many travel books which often just become lists of things to do without much thought put into it. Reading this book, on the other hand, you get the feeling of being guided by ...

Author's response to misleading review
NOTE: This is not a review. We are the book's authors and are writing in response to the careless and misleading comments made by reviewer "erikbaard." "erikbaard" seems to think we should have written a narrowly focused book catering to his personal interest as a kayaker, describing such minutiae as seagull eggs. But our book is intended as a history and guide book, an approach we believed would ...

MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW
This small, quick read packs quite a powerful punch for the Christian looking for a closer walk with the Almighty. The author shares with us his experiences with his walk with the Lord and helps us to see, through his life how he was able to draw closer to the Almighty, bringing him to a more fulfilled relationship. He uses examples, such as turning from our busy lives and being still to know ...

God's Promises For Your Every Need

Countryman, Gibbs

J. Countryman, 2001

Little Book, Big Help
This little book was recently given to me and has been a real blessing. It simply contains various passages from the Bible and categorizes them in a manner that addresses various situations. While it certainly cannot replace the Bible, it provides a tremendous resource to those in need of comfort or discernment at difficult times. I'm currently keeping my copy on my desk. I would highly recommend ...
