Nothing is Strange with You: The Life and Crimes of Gordon Stewart Northcott 32 reviews
James Jeffrey Paul
Xlibris Corporation, 2008
The Untold Story
It was Mark Twain who was purported to have said that there are three sides to every story - yours, mine, and the truth. No book that I have read brings out the truth of that old adage more than James Jeffrey Paul's "Nothing Is Strange With You". The book is subtitled "The Life And Crimes Of Gordon Stewart Northcott" and is a compilation of trial transcripts, newspaper articles, and various ...

Boot Camp for Your Brain: A No-Nonsense Guide to the SAT I, Second Edition 119 reviews
M. Denmark Manning
Xlibris Corporation, 2004
Worked for my slacker
My child has a very laid back personality and was never going to be the kid diligently tackling the SAT with flashcards, word of the day etc. She used this book (sparingly!) and improved her SAT score by more than 300 points. She found the Latin roots especially helpful.

Afghanistan 1013 reviews
Ehsan M Entezar
Xlibris Corporation, 2008
A key to understanding another culture
This should be read by all military personnel and anyone interested in understanding a very different culture on its own terms. It helps you understand the real differences of US and Afghan culture and how these differences can be understood and bridged.
An important book which benefits from Entezar's long exposure to both cultures as a resident and teacher.

Those Crazy Germans! A Lighthearted Guide to Germany10 reviews
Steven Somers
Xlibris Corporation, 2008
A great read for a fun new perspective of all things German...
Those Crazy Germans! is a must read for anyone traveling to Germany. Having traveled to Germany on several occasions prior to reading the book, Those Crazy Germans! answered all of the questions that I had about Germany and my experiences there that I was afraid to ask. This book is not a travel guide in the traditional sense - but rather an insider's view into the culture, people, traditions ...

Fantastic Vocation!3 reviews
Joseph A. Miksch
Xlibris Corporation, 2010
A true book about serving the Truth.
Fantastic Vocation! is a fun and funny book to read. It's about the life of a servant of Christ who has received great joy, among many other gifts, from his service as a Catholic priest. It's easy to read, and tells of the many adventures open to someone called to a priestly vocation - and to anyone called to Christ. I recommend it. Chad Koehn

Impossible Visits: The Inside Story of Interactions with Sasquatch at Habituation Sites7 reviews
Christopher Noël
Xlibris Corporation, 2009
Awesome account
I experienced my own Bigfoot sighting years ago and even have a report filed on-line with the BFRO.net - Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization. So I am a believer. What I loved about this book was the revealing insight into the behavior and mindset of these creatures as experienced by these habituators. I have read extensively about Bigfoot. This is the first to provide an on-going account of ...

ERIC IS WINNING !!: Beating a Terminal Illness with Nutrition, Avoiding Toxins and Common Sense12 reviews
Eric Edney
Xlibris Corporation, 2008
Time to Take Responsibility for Our Health
I read Eric's book in 2005 and I'm glad I did. Nobody in the medical field is giving people with ALS any hope, but Eric truly is winning, actually getting better and not worse. I'm doing what he recommends in the book, and my health is still good 4 1/2 years later. 4 years into a 5 year death sentence and I'm still walking and dancing. I think Eric Edney is right about the cause of ALS: ...

A Happy Pocket Full of Money41 reviews
David Cameron Gikandi
Xlibris Corporation, 2008
Get past chapter 1 and 2 and you will be amazed
Excellent materials presented in this book which is about Abundance, Wealth and Joy...the "Power of Positive Thinking" by Norman Vincent Peale was somewhat similar. There is some repetition but that is overcome with the encouragement of the author as he leads you through his conclusions and advice regarding the energy of positive thoughts.

The Guide for Penny Stock Investing36 reviews
Donny Lowy
Xlibris Corporation, 2000
review from NJ
This book is worth ten useless books that I have at home. Mr. Lowy thinks outside of the box and yes it is not a grammar book. People are critical but exactly what have they done with thier lives that make them so great. My gammar is horrible. Tell me, how many English teachers are rich.

Freedom from Rheumatoid Arthritis: The amazing story of one woman's recovery2 reviews
Sonia St. Claire
Xlibris Corporation, 2008
Freedom from Rheumatoid Arthritis
This book is an incredible read! It is full of up to date information on how to live a healthy life. Although, the diet is directed towards eliminating Rheumatoid Arthritis, it makes sense that a diet of this kind would boost one's immune system and cure any number of ailments. The author has written a poignant, informative picture of her life story. She reflects on her childhood as an orphan and ...

Dumb Jock9 reviews
Jeff Erno
Xlibris Corporation, 2009
Astounding, Couldn't Put It Down!
I was so excited when Jeff Erno contacted me and told me he had published his first book entitled "Dumb Jock", I immediately purchased the hard cover copy and began reading it. Jeff and I grew up together and have been best friends since 4th grade so this was really a bit like reading about our life here and there. Of course the story is based on fiction, but Jeff puts so much of himself into ...

The Happy Minimalist: Financial independence, Good health, and a better planet for us all18 reviews
Peter Lawrence
Xlibris Corporation, 2008
Great Book! A must read!
We live in a society where people have been convinced that they can only be happy if they buy, buy, buy. Consequently, many people are in over their heads financially and life is not as much fun as the ad for "that thing" said it would be. The novelty of the purchase has worn off, it is gathering dust, yet the payments continue. I am a financial advisor and I strongly recommend this book to my ...

Demonstrating to Win!: The Indispensable Guide for Demonstrating Software16 reviews
Robert Riefstahl
Xlibris Corporation, 2000
Just what my sales force needed
I read Demo2Win and fell in love with the concept. After years of demonstrating software, I always felt like I could have done better if I had more tools. Robert's book gave me those tools. The tools I remember from the book were simple. Just be a little different than the other person or company. The Discovery Phase in the long run will save you and your customer time. You will find out if ...

Compartments: How the Brightest, Best Trained, and Most Caring People Can Make Judgments That are Completely ...1 review
Steven R. Feldman
Xlibris Corporation, 2009
Intriguing work
Compartments is an important book for many people to read to help understand the limitations of our own narrow focus. This quick read introduces the audience to other perspectives that are critically important in understanding the "big picture." Although the author is a doctor, lessons are applicable in politics, religion, and a huge number of human endeavors. I highly recommend this book if you ...

Wayward Love: Captain Frederick Wentworth's Story7 reviews
Regina Jeffers
Xlibris Corporation, 2009
Terrific story from Wentworth's point of view
This story was a pleasure to read. Ms. Jeffers kept to the plot of Persuasion while adding insight into how Captain Wentworth felt about his situation with Anne.
Jeffers' story doesn't stop where Austen's did. She continues the tale to tell of a wonderful life that the couple spends together. She also develops the story line of several secondary characters.
What I enjoyed best about Jeffers' ...
