Our Sacred Honor: Words of Advice from the Founders in Stories, Letters, Poems, and Speeches18 reviews

B&H Publishing Group, 1997

The United States of America was blessed with a generation of founding fathers who were at the same time people of action, and people of thought. They were an incredibly brilliant group of political and moral thinkers. Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Franklin, Hamilton, Madison had a profound understanding of both human nature and the unique circumstances bound up with the founding of the United ... 		  
  







  
  
The Man Who Moved a Mountain15 reviews
Richard C. Davids

Augsburg Fortress Publishers, 1986

Compelling and uplifting book
My husband found this book at a garage sale. He couldn't put it down and related many of the anecdotes to me. I have read this book, since, over and over. There is a sweetness and goodness to it that transforms it from a biography of a great man, to an inspiring book that relates to the possibility for each of us to make our life worthwhile. It is down to earth, funny and wise, a story of a ... 		  
  







  
  
Every Knee Shall Bow : The Truth & Tragedy of Ruby Ridge & The Randy Weaver Family13 reviews
Jess Walter

Harpercollins, 1995

Both the goverment and the Weavers went to extremes
I found it fascinating. It's about crackpots (The Weavers) and F***ups (The Government). I found Randy Weaver to be lazy and maybe a coward. But I do believe that he loved his wife and family. Vicki was interesting. Her family almost lost their family farm as a kid due to eminent domain. They were going to build a freeway right though where the house was. I can understand why she didn't trust the ... 		  
  







  
  
The Four Spiritual Laws of Prosperity: A Simple Guide to Unlimited Abundance (Unabridged)25 reviews
Edwene Gaines

audible.com

This was the book I've been looking for!
For almost 20 years I've been struggling with my relationship to money. Part of me didn't want it (I saw poverty as more spiritual and more ethical) and part of me hated being without it. Not having choices and struggling because of my lack of money have been really hurtful and constraining. It also created great anxieties. There are quite a few things I'd been planning to get around to some day ... 		  
  







  
  
Making Natural Hoof Care Work for You25 reviews
Pete Ramey

Star Ridge Publishing, 2003

Great book about natural hoof care.
Our farrier recommended this book for us to read. My daughter leases a horse that foundered and fortunatly it was caught fairly early but she still had hoof issues. The farrier wanted to continue her barefoot and told us that this book would explain why. I have to say that the book is an easy read and the explaination was great. Our Bella is doing fine and I highly recommend this book to ... 		  
  







  
  
Pea Ridge: Civil War Campaign in the West18 reviews
William L. Shea, Earl J. Hess

The University of North Carolina Press, 1997

The Gettysburg of the West
Authors William Shea and Earl Hess tell the story of the campaign and battle of Pea Ridge, which is sometimes grandly called the Gettysburg of the West. The Union Army of the Southwest, commanded by Brig. Gen. Samuel Curtis numbered fewer than 11,000 soldiers, the same size as a single division in the Army of the Potomac at that time. Yet, while the vast legions of Army of the Potomac hovered ...

Yearling, 2008

A Boy, a Cave, a Dog, Dead Bodies and it's a Mystery. . .What's Not to Love!!
I have to agree with another review the cover of this book just hooked me. This came into the library where I work (5/6 grade) and I immediately snagged it. Read it in one night and have not seen the book on our shelves since!!! It has been out constantly since we put it in the collection. Our kids like it (mainly the boys and our teachers love it!!). There's action and creepiness. The ... 		  
  







  
  
Growing Up in Mama's Club12 reviews
Richard E. Kelly

Parker Ridge Publishing, 2007

Kelly, we travel with him as he grows up in the faith of Jehovah's Witness religion. Richard shares the story of his mother's first encounter with this religion and how she began her quest to bring all of her family members into her faith. Openly, he ... 		  
  







  
  
Duty-Honor-Valor: The Story of the Eleventh Mississippi Infantry Regiment9 reviews
Steven H. Stubbs

Quail Ridge Pr, 2000

Awesome-What More Can I say
This is without a doubt the best account of the day to day activities encountered by our ancestors who served in the Eleventh Mississippi Infantry Regiment. From chapter to chapter, as I read, I feel I am with them. As a genealogist I have found more information about several of my ancestors, most who were members of the "University Greys" Co. A" in this book than I have found after several years ...

The Recipe Hall of Fame Cookbook (Best of the Best)12 reviews

Quail Ridge Press, 1999

Really Great Cookbook!!!
I received this cookbook as a wedding gift, and I think it has been the one thing I have used over and over. I have yet to make a recipe from this cookbook that is "average." If you make nothing else, the Applebarn Fresh Apple Cake is worth the price of this book. I need to buy a second volume because the original is wearing out!

Miss America by Day: Lessons Learned from Ultimate Betrayals and Unconditional Love12 reviews
Marilyn Van M. Derbur

Oak Hill Ridge Pr, 2004

"Every Child Needs Someone Who Would Die For Him/Her" Richard Wexler, National Coalition for Child Protection Reform
Shame threatened to kill author Marilyn Van Durber if she revealed the truth about her childhood to her daughter Jennifer. "I believed with all my heart, that when I told Jennifer [that I'd been sexually violated by my father], she would say, `I don't want you to be my mom anymore.' I knew I would be as unacceptable to her as I was to myself. "If you are not a survivor of childhood sexual ... 		  
  







  
  
Ready, Aim, Right!10 reviews
Jack Criss

Quail Ridge Press, 2004

Right On!
It often seems today that the voice of reason is trying to make itself heard above a howling, never-ending hurricane of perilous irrationality. It shouts, it pleads, it warns, it explains. Sometimes, it even damns the stubbornly, consciously deaf. It knocks on the doors of men's minds with the same persistence that the hurricane rattles and buffets those doors. But most people, it also seems, ... 		  
  







  
  
The Devil's Ridge12 reviews
Andre Bergeron

Mars Media Publishers, 2007

New generation writer
A very interesting book. This work reflects a new younger view of art where issues of self dominate and drive the plot. Not like anything I have read before, but possibly the first in a flood of new works from a very new sort of writer. 		  
  







  
  
Kayak: The Animated Manual of Intermediate and Advanced Whitewater Technique13 reviews
William Nealy

Menasha Ridge Press, 2001

If you paddle rivers, you want this book!
Most introductory paddling books begin with equipment and clothing, run through basic strokes and present a couple of simple moves, eddying out and peeling out, for example, with some fundamental river information thrown in at the end. The assumption is that you will learn what you need to know on the water. This book is different. It may very well be the best introduction to flowing water on ... 		  
  







  
  
Culinary Confessions of the PTA Divas9 reviews
Anne-Marie Hodges, Pam Brandon

Menasha Ridge Press, 2004

What a Hoot!
This is a must have book - whether you buy it for the recipes or the humor that runs throughout the entire book. I love this cookbook and I've shared it with many girlfriends who had to buy one or more copies because they fell in love with it too. When I first received the book as a gift, I couldn't put it down. I had to go through it page by page and savor the ambience. It's a great concept ...
