A. J. Burger, William Kingdon Clifford

Dry Bones Press, 2001

Great Stuff
Interestingly, I found this by searching on "ethics + belief" out of pure curiosity. Boy did I get more than I expected. Here is an illuminating presentation of important philosophical issues regarding belief. Truly one of the most enlightening books I've read. The two classic essays are a joy to read in their own right, I find myself re-reading the Clifford piece every few months. With ...

A Victorian Justice

Patricia C. Behnke

Dry Bones Press, 2000

A wonderful and important book
This book surprised me; it was not what I thought it would be when I first started it. The subject of race relations in the 1970s is volatile in and of itself, but complicate it with a love story that is tainted with abuse and this drama takes on a realism that is thought-provoking. The young couple in this book have a lot going against them. Can they overcome the obstacles the members of a ...

USA Protestant Episcopal Church

Dry Bones Press, 2001

A strong tradition
Please note: this is a reprint by Dry Bones Press, a press that specialises in Old Catholic texts, of the classic 1928 Book of Common Prayer, which many tradition Independent and Old Catholic congregations use, as well as a good many continuing Anglicans. For many Episcopalians (the American version of official Anglicans), the 1928 version of the Book of Common Prayer is still the most prized ...

Kurt Messick

Dry Bones Press, 2003

The Inner Life of the Poet
Poetry offers vantages like few other art forms. The poet, in condensing fleeting thoughts or touching profound passions, can set a visual form of words, succinct, brief, seemingly transparent messages, captured moments that signal the depth of thought within. So it is with Kurt Messick in this absolutely spellbinding collection of poems gathered under the name A CHORUS OF VOICES. Messick ...

About a Christian Vampire
Who would have imagined a Christian Vampire? Pantaleo has done a remarkable job of telling a story that is not only spiritual, erotic, and thought-provoking, but also incredibly funny! Do you ever read a book while riding the bus, and you have to stop because you are afraid you will embarrass yourself in front of your fellow passengers with a loud guffaw? Well, that's what happened to me while ...

Year of the Smoke Girl

Olivia J. Boler

Dry Bones Press, 2000

Tragic and Uplifting
Year of the Smoke Girl is one of the big surprises this year. I was not expecting the novel to have so much depth in its characters, nor its powerful storyline and especially not the unexpected twists that occurred so frequently. Smoke Girl is one of those books you only find once in a lifetime. Everyone has those moments where they are searching for themselves, searching for the truth about ...

House of Darkness

CAE Cordell

Dry Bones Press, 2000

AUTOBIOGRAPHY AT ITS FINEST AND MOST TROUBLING
Most biographies tell the story of a person's life. House of Darkness, by Cae Cordell, not only tells the story. It recreates it. House of Darkness is autobiography at its finest and most troubling. Published by Dry Bones Press, Cae Cordell wields a writing style that is both stark with reality and round and mature in form. The story is told through the eyes of Kitty, a little girl who is ...

Mahatma Gandhi

Dry Bones Press, 2000

From the Mind of a Prophet
Unfortunately my brothers and sisters, another prophet walked among us, and we,again were relatively unaware of his presence. With the media focused upon events of wars, Gandhi's greatest feats went relatively unnoticed; we did not have enough exposure to his work; we did not see each step of his leading India out from beneath the crushing heels of Western oppression. I highly recommend all of ...

Dry Bones Press, 1993

BARE BONES ESSENCE OF DIVINITY
This volume which comprises Gandhi's wisely succinct Gujarati translation of and commentary on the Gita, the central statement of his religious faith, introduced by the 134 page thickly detailed commentary of his intimate associate and English translator, Mahadev Desai, deserves a wider audience. There are a number of important reasons for my claim. 1) As we stand facing the distinct ...

Sean: The Story of a Child's Life and Death

Julie Maude Miller

Dry Bones Press, 1999

Touching story for anyone who has lost a loved one
SEAN touched me in many ways. First, it was scary to pick up the book and begin reading. I'm the mother of an only child who just suffered through a car accident, and I wasn't sure I could read about a child who dies. But instead, once I started this very personal journal and journey through Sean's life and then death, I found out that strength and courage are the attributes of the very special ...

Arnold Harris Matthew

Dry Bones Press, 1994

An excellent book of traditional Catholic worship
Arnold Harris Mathew, an Archbishop in the Old Catholic tradition, translated the Latin Rite services of the Western Church into English in 1909. Archbishop Mathew wished to faithfully preserve Catholic theology and worship but present it to worshipers in a language they could understand--he did so admirably. This text contains almost all of the major services of the Western Church, in English, ...

Dry Bones Press, 2005

A Wonderful Mystery!!
A great mystery book. This book is full of well developed characters. This book rounds up the usual suspects and adds a few more to the mix. The writing style of the book reminds me of the classic mystery books. We even get to have the round up of all the suspects to reveal all the possible motives and find out who really murdered Eleanor Lindquist. I enjoyed reading this book and would recommend ...

Rosenberg

Dry Bones Press, 2000

Best in the West
George Rosenberg's informative manual on how to successfully participate in carry back financing, is the best that I have come across. It provides instruction specific enough to allow the reader to immediately begin to apply the principles learned. Mr. Rosenberg offers a no-nonsense approach to this little known, and potentially profitable [for all parties involved!] area of real estate finance. ...

The Goddess of Cancer & Other Plays

Gabriel Constans

Dry Bones Press, 2000

Worst fears faced with honesty and humor.
This collection of one act plays deals with a lot of issues and situations I would rather ignore, such as cancer and dictators. What caught me by surprise, after the eye-catching cover, was how the author was able to mix a number of real emotions and reactions to cancer into a humorous and engaging drama. Cancer touches everyone at some level. Almost everyone I know either has had or knows ...

Do Not Surrender

James Snydal

Dry Bones Press, 2001

His Importance and Tragedy
The book itself is a good job, solid and serious, a fitting container for the work. Reading the poems as a unified body was a fine experience. One begins to hear voice and to come to terms with the demands made on the sonnet, and additionally to admire the need to wrestle with the emotional strain of the narrative. All in all, it's a strong piece of work, and I hope it gets the passage it ...
