Cold Rock River27 reviews
J. L. Miles

Cumberland House Publishing, 2006

Moved to the Top of my All Time Favorite List
As a born and bred Southern belle, I love Southern fiction, but as a former teacher and life-long reader, I'm picky about what I give five star ratings to. I picked up a copy of Cold Rock River, and to my husband's exasperation was still reading at 3 AM, because I couldn't put it down. The characters tug at your heartstrings, the action keeps you turning pages as fast as you can read, and you ... 		  
  







  
  
It's a Wonderful Life: A Memory Book20 reviews
Stephen Cox

Cumberland House Publishing, 2003

A Wonderful Review of a Wonderful Book
Cox's "It's a Wonderful Life: A Memory Book" is an excellent addition to the movie buff's collection, and to fans of this exceptional film. The book is packed with stunning photographs (many never seen before), interesting tid-bits about the making-of, backstory on not only the fine performances of James Stewart, Donna Reed and Lionel Barrymore, but the character actors that helped make Capra's ...

Stephen Baskerville

Cumberland House Publishing, 2007

The BEST Book Yet on the Full, BIG Picture
Awesome and factually backed up. Have you ever read a book that you just can't put down? Well, this book is beyond that. Everyone I talk to that has read it or is reading it just has to put it down, very often, due to the shocking thought provoking nature of presenting the truth in the most believable way. Great job, Dr. Baskerville! Dr. Baskerville sees that the real root of the war on ...

Rose Keefe

Cumberland House Publishing, 2003

The Genuine Article: Rose Keefe Delivers 100 Proof Goods
This is the most comprehensive and thoroughly researched biography of Dean O'Banion and it has been justly recognized as definitive. Rose Keefe's greatest accomplishment is that her meticulous research has refuted dozens of journalistic half truths, embellishments and canards that have become commonly accepted as the truth simply because of constant repetition over eight decades. The actual Dean ...

One Fine Book!
Steve Cox never fails to amaze me. Just when I think he's done his best, he comes out with a new book that's even better! I went into this book knowing nothing about the fine Larry Fine or any of the other Stooges. I bought the book because I like everything this author has ever written. What an amazing history these lovable goofs have!! This book is like a jewelry box, filled with rare ...

William J. Helmer, Rick Mattix

Cumberland House Publishing, 2007

This Book is Encyclopedic
Respected authors William Helmer and Rick Mattix have provided us with a reference book of nearly 900 pages relating to "the gangster and outlaw era: 1920--1940." The book is divided into seven sections dealing with all facets of crime during this turbulent era. Parts of this book can be read like any other book while criminal incidents from various years are listed chronologically. I feel ... 		  
  







  
  
The Best Defense: True Stories of Intended Victims Who Defended Themselves With a Firearm28 reviews
Robert A. Waters

Cumberland House Publishing, 1998

Entertaining and informative
I finished reading this book very quickly. Every story was intense and captivating. The book was enjoyable for entertainment value alone, but it also contains critical information about personal defense. Ever wondered what it was really like to be attacked by someone trying to kill you? These are stories of people who lived to tell the tail. Many potential murder victims only survived because ...

Roseflower Creek
This book was a page turner! I finished it in two readings - couldn't put it down until I found out what happened to Lori Jean. This story is very sad but well worth your time. I definitely recommend it.

Why a Daughter Needs a Dad: A Hundred Reasons27 reviews
Gregory E. Lang, Janet Lankford-Moran

Cumberland House Publishing, 2002

Beautiful book
I purchased two copies of this book, one for my father and one for my husband. As I flipped through the pages I felt I could relate to every passage that was written. They are personal, yet universal........simple but descriptive. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to touch the heart of a dad with a little girl (or a grown little girl). 		  
  







  
  
My Name's Friday : The Unauthorized but True Story of Dragnet and the Films of Jack Webb18 reviews
Michael Hayde

Cumberland House Publishing, 2001

The facts...and much more
This is a must if you are collecting the radio shows, original TV series, or the '67-'70 version. A lot of the 50's series is on DVD, but they are scattered on all sorts of compilations. This book helps keep track of what you've got. I particularly enjoyed hearing from the extras that Webb used religiously. But beyond Dragnet, there's a lot of interesting stuff here, how Webb was a jazz nut, ...

The Iron Disorders Institute Guide to Hemochromatosis (Iron Disorders Institute)14 reviews
P.D., M.D. Phatak, E.D., Ph.D. Weinberg, ...

Cumberland House Publishing, 2001

solid information for people with this problem
Finally, there is definitive information out there, instead of just people passing word of mouth warnings. This books is worth gold for people of Celtic ancestry. I was diagnosed with HHC, laughingly called the Celtic Curse because it can strike people of Scottish and Irish ancestry, there was not a lot of information out there about it. One in four people can carry the gene that causes the ... 		  
  







  
  
Dishing Hollywood: The Real Scoop on Tinseltown's Most Notorious Scandals10 reviews
Laurie Jacobson

Cumberland House Publishing, 2003

A Must-Have Book For Classic Movie Fans!
I had so much fun reading this book! The stories are great and Miss Jacobson clears up a lot of false Hollywood rumors. The best part about this book is that it includes chapters about some forgotten stars like Carole Landis, Dorothy Kilgallen, and Lupe Velez. Anyone who is a fan of classic Hollywood and loves juicy gossip will want this book.

Brilliant! Brilliant!
Admit it - even die hard bakers and cooks like me - can use a short cut now and then - this is the brownie mix bible! Buy it - you won't be disappointed. -- Addendum: Made the dark rum brownies today with the chocolate glaze - dear God - - I bake them and then left the house - I came back in and the house smelled incredible (and I bake all the time!) - - - they taste even better than they look ...

Gregory E. Lang

Cumberland House Publishing, 2004

AWESOME!
I paged through this book quickly one day & thought of the many similiarites that I had with the relationship with my son. The thought of the book kept coming back to me. My son is at college out of state so I ordered the book and after making some personal notes on a few of the pages, I sent it to him for his 20th birthday. I received a phone call the day he received the package and in a very ... 		  
  







  
  
Cookie Dough Delights: More Than 150 Foolproof Recipes for Cookies, Bars, and Other Treats Made With ...16 reviews
Camilla V. Saulsbury

Cumberland House Publishing, 2004

All around fabulous
Kudos! Great book, especially for the occasional baker. I love love love the lemon ginger gems (soft, you add crystallized ginger 1 package 3-ounce cream cheese, lemon zest to sugar dough). I like more innovative cookeis like that and the coffee toffee bars and pretty much all of the cheesecake creations throughout the book. The rest of the gang in my house can't get enough of some of the simpler ...

After Dillinger's death, "Baby Face" Nelson exploded into the public's eye and his crimes were the focus of most newspapers and Detective magazines across the country. Helmer and Nickel have done an excellent job of bringing this bandit's life to light, as ... 		  
  







  
  
Why Did I Marry You Anyway? 12.5 Strategies for a Happy Marriage (And the Mythinformation That Gets in the ...15 reviews
Barbara Bartlein

Cumberland House Publishing, 2003

Amazingly down to earth book for strengthening a marriage
Reviewed by Olivera Baumgartner-Jackson for Reader Views (12/07) My usual reaction to this kind of self-help book is somewhere along the lines of, "And exactly what does he/she thinks he/she knows about MY marriage?" More often than not, I either find them all too preachy or too simplistic to help me solve any particular problems I might have encountered in my personal life, so they end up in ...
