Anatomy for Strength and Fitness Training 7 reviews
Mark Vella
New Holland Publishers Ltd, 2006
Very good reference
I find this book useful on two levels. On one level, I have used it to deepen my own knowledge and make sure that I am targeting where I wish. On another level, it has allowed me to show my teenage son exactly which muscles are being worked by which exercises. I like the author's emphasis on functional strength.

Uncovering Jack the Ripper's London 2 reviews
Richard Jones
New Holland Publishers Ltd, 2007
As close to the real story of Jack the Ripper as you're likely to get
Anyone interested in "Jack the Ripper" will surely find this book to be of interest. As a matter of fact, I found it more interesting than any of the previous books I have read about this most famous of all murderers. Each of those books had a story to tell and something to prove, but, although convincing, they didn't necessarily tell the whole story or perhaps even the real story. This book ...

The Handmade Soap Book (The Handmade Series) 24 reviews
Melinda Coss
New Holland Publishers Ltd, 2000
Worth Every Penny!
As a professional soapmaker I own just about every soapmaking book published. "The Handmade Soap Book" by Melinda Coss is my favorite and I highly recommend it. The photographs by Emma Peios are sensual and entice you to want to make each and every soap in the book. The recipes are for small batches which works well while you are just learning and when you've found your favorites you can ...

Hot Cakes1 review
Debbie Brown
New Holland Publishers Ltd, 2008
Fun book
The designs at first can be intimidating, but she makes figure modeling manageable with clear step by step instructions. She even includes weights so you figure comes out to well proportioned. The only downside for me is EVERYTHING is fondant (sugarpaste) and I prefer to decorate the actual cake with buttercream.

Venomous Snakes of the World2 reviews
Mark O'Shea
New Holland Publishers Ltd, 2008
A good book
Overall, this is a pretty good book. The photographs are what make it great. The text is informative, though not very techincal, so if you are looking for a more in-depth book, this may not be what you are looking for. However, for the price it is well worth it.

A Gift Idea book for Men, a Wish List for Women
Ok Guys, just look at the front cover: a purse, a lipstick, high heeled shoe, diamond encrusted wrist watch and a big multi colored fabric thing.
Absolutely nothing there that you'd possibly want.
So what are you going to get her for Christmas, birthday, anniversary?
Here's a bunch of things that I guarantee you would never have thought of yourself. Well, there's the Aston Martin on ...

Serene Gardens2 reviews
Yoko Kawaguchi
New Holland Publishers Ltd, 2000
Serene Gardens - exquisitely presented!
Kawaguchi captures the essential elements of serenity and beauty in near perfect balance with the `how-to' hinted at in the subtitle. The author succeeds in creating a book that is first and foremost a beautiful book, but also raises awareness as to the deeper consciousness of Japanese garden design. This is not a Readers Digest Gardening Guide, with silly pictures and numbered steps. Instead ...

Crochet for Babies and Toddlers8 reviews
Betty Barnden
New Holland Publishers Ltd, 2002
Another of my favorites!
This book is another of my favorite books for baby and toddler clothing. I have made the stuffed zebra (in sky blue and white stripes for something a little out of the ordinary) and the girl's floral sweater (in tan with peach flowers).
This is one of my favorite books for finding great baby items. I've made many for other people's children, and I am now thrilled to make these patterns up ...
