Near Death Experience: A Holographic Explanation 1 review
Oswald G., Ph.d. Harding
LMH Publishers, 2005
Keep a dictionary handy
Although I'm endlessly fascinated by the parallels between near death experiences and the holographic universe, I found Dr. Oswald Harding's book a difficult read. It was like he just put a cover on his PhD dissertation and had it published as a book. Numerous times I had to ask my wife what was the meaning of a lot of the words he used. I was also dissapointed because I thought he was going ...

King Ranch & Little Peppy: The Legacy & the Legend1 review
Gala Nettles
LMH Publishers, 1996
The Legacy & The Legend
When visiting the King Ranch as a tourist, I had no idea what lay beyond the guest parking lot. Reading KING RANCH & LITTLE PEPPY introduced me to the real King Ranch -- the Kleberg family, the equine sport of cutting, the great Peppy San Badger, the legendary Buster Welch and a way of life beyond my Yankee imagination. As a fan of Quarter Horse history and cutting lore, I highly recommend this ...
