Fonda San Miguel: Thirty Years Of Food And Art16 reviews
Tom Gilliland, Miguel Ravago, ...

Shearer Publishing, 2005

Outstanding authencity...
I thought this book was written by someone who owned a restaurant in Mexico, but was pleasantly surprised to find out the location was in Austin Texas. This book consists of recipes that are on their menu inspired by authentic Mexican connoisseurs like Diana Kennedy and former head chef Roberto Santibanez who now owns the New York based Mexican chain Rosa Mexicanos. Having lived for years in ...
  
  











  



  
The Other Side of Thirty: Musings of a Modern Day Bachelor Gal24 reviews
M. A. Thakor

Xlibris Corporation, 2001

Fun, wise and incredibly well researched!
Ms. Thakor just wowed me. I bought the book after a mutual colleague told me about it. Actually I bought several copies actually, thinking it would be a good gift for my growing list of "singelton" friends. I was expecting a Bridget Jones-like approach with a few clever adaptations, I was delighted to be wrong! I loved the more modern medium of email instead of a diary to impart the interesting ...

Through a Window: My Thirty Years With the Chimpanzees of Gombe15 reviews
Jane Goodall

Houghton Mifflin (T), 1990

Thirty Years of Goodall Research in Gombe
Jane Goodall's contributions to our knowledge of chimpanzees has been remarkable. Because she first arrived in Africa completely untrained as an observer of animal behavior, she was able to bring a humanist's instincts to her work; her natural ability to see details and connections, as well as her affection for her subjects, culminated in published results that rocked the scientific community. ...
  
  











  



  
Birds and mammals of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore: Thirty-five years of change (UNC Sea Grant ...11 reviews
James F Parnell

North Carolina State University, UNC Sea Grant College Program, 1992

Monumental effort by the author
This is easily one of the best books I have read about my own country. Very informative. Note to editorial Reviewers: India entered the nuclear club in May 1974 and not in May 1998 as suggested by some of your reviews. Some highlights of the book. * The term nuclear "haves" and "have-nots" was coined by Homi Bhabha initially and used by others and till date has been central to ...
  
  











  



  
Thirty seconds over Tokyo (Bantam Books)24 reviews
Ted W Lawson

Bantam Books, 1944

A Classic Rememberance of World War II
I first read this book so many years ago that I can't remember, but I think it was about when I was in the eighth grade, say about 1955. I remember the book, and I remember the Van Johnson movie. The scene where the Chinese peasant brings Van Johnson the pair of slippers only to see that he has lost one leg stays with me even now. ==This is a classic book. It was written by one of the pilots on ...
  
  











  



  
One Life to Live: Thirty Years of Memories17 reviews
Gary Warner

Hyperion Books, 1998

A great retrospective
This book has all that any fan of 'One Life To Live' would want. You can relive the storylines through all of the recaps. The book features listings of every character to ever appear on the show, along with many pictures of past and present greats from the show. It is definitely a nostalgic trip down memory lane. The book did a wonderful job of cramming 30 years into something that is totally ...
  
  











  



  
Thirty Years in a Red House: A Memoir of Childhood and Youth in Communist China15 reviews
Zhu Xiao Di, Xiao Di Zhu

University of Massachusetts Press, 1998

A Sad Yet Warm Memoir of Love and Loyalty
Having lived and worked as an American teacher in China now for two years, I've been able to read a number of biographies and memoirs of China's modern history. But unlike so many westerners who read such literature, I don't have the luxury of finishing a book and passing it off as some faraway account of a society and system that I'll never personally have to deal with. On the contrary, I see ...
  
  











  



  
Get the Job You Want in Thirty Days16 reviews
Gary Joseph Grappo

Kogan Page Ltd, 1998

Concise and to the Point
I just got through reading Mr. Grappo's book on how to get the job you want in thirty days and would like to send many thanks for helping me on the quest for new employment. The book was very concise and to the point. It is hard to believe that a book this small could contain so much useful information.

Perfect gift for the Star Wars Junkie!
My husband LOVES all things 'Star Wars' and I don't think there's a single day in his life that goes by without him making at least one daily Star Wars reference. This collection has so much to offer. So many little gems that will surprise even the biggest Star Wars fan. It's so masterfully crafted and quite a show piece! It's like a modern heirloom, and sure to provide hours upon hours of ...
  
  











  



  
All Access: The Making of Thirty Extraordinary Graphic Designers8 reviews
STEFAN G. BUCHER

Rockport Publishers, 2006

A Design Book to, well, READ!
All Access is one of the most abundant, interesting design books I've had the pleasure to comb through. Most design publications are a pleasant visual trip, but All Access has not only engaged my eyes, but pulled me in to read every entertaining, inspiring word. I would recommend this book to everyone from the seasoned design professional to someone who is only remotely interested in graphic ...
  
  











  



  
39 Progressive Solos For Classical Guitar - Book 2 - Book/Cassetts Pack (Thirty-Nine Progressive Solos for ...8 reviews
Ben Bolt

Cherry Lane Music, 1999

The Tite should be 27 progressive solos for Classical Guitar
I enjoyed this book and the CD. It's good. However I feel short-changed because it's only 27 progressive solos and not 39. You have to get the remaining 12 solos in Book II. Dear Mr Ben Bolt, it would be great if you or your publisher did not misguide buyers with such a title. I still give it a 5 star rating regardless....
  
  











  



  
Open Doors: Vietnam POWs Thirty Years Later9 reviews
Jamie Howren, Taylor Baldwin Kiland

Potomac Books Inc., 2005

The Best and the Brightest After the Hanoi Hilton
Perhaps the most striking part of this book to me is the simple number, the number of days that these men spent in captivity in Vietnam: 2,381; 2,432; 2,676; 3,113. To me this made a stronger impact than saying 5 years or whatever. Three thousand days. These people sat there with nothing to do, scared, being mistreated, tortured, no idea if they would ever return home. But return home 661 ...
  
  











  



  
The Fervent Years: The Group Theatre And The Thirties (Da Capo Paperback)11 reviews
Harold Clurman

Da Capo Press, 1983

A magnificent and inspiring historical document
The Group Theatre, modeled off of the equally influencial Moscow Art Theatre, was an artistic organization that completely and drastically revolutionized not only American Theatre, but World Theatre as well. Formed in the 1930's and comprised of what has become a literal who's who of Theatre: Clifford Odets, Elia Kazan, Harold Clurman, Robert Lewis, Stella Adler, Lee Strasberg, Cheryl Crawford, ...
  
  











  



  
Strong Enough? Thoughts from Thirty Years of Barbell Training10 reviews
Mark Rippetoe

The Aasgaard Company, 2007

Strong Enough
I love this book so much I've read it twice back to back. As soon as i finished I started right back at chapter 1 again! I place this book right up there with other classics such as John McCallums "Key's to Progress", Brooks Kubik's "Dinosaur Training", and Bill Starr's "The Strongest Shall Survive". In fact "Strong Enough" may be the best of the bunch.
  
  











  



  
Hitler's Thirty Days10 reviews
Henry Ashby Turner

Book Sales, 2003

A Must Read for Historians, Political Scientists, and Sociologists
This is a well-written and extensive explanation on the behind the scenes machinations, impelled by personal foibles and vendettas, that led to Hitler's being awarded the Chancellorship of Germany despite his party's never achieving a majority in or at the polls. The book sets to rest many myths about how German industrialists finagled Hitler's ascension to power and exposes the inner ...
  
  











  



  
The Thirty-third Hour: A Novel9 reviews
Mitchell Chefitz

St. Martin's Griffin, 2003

A mystery wrapped in a jewish learning course(or vice versa)
A great read - both intriguing and instructive. The mystery keeps the pages turning, and before you know it you've been through a Torah course taught in a very unique way. But beyond that is a new philosophy on the form and future of jewish life and learning - some ideas that really make you think. It's rare to get so many "benefits" from one book!

If you want a comprehensive book that immerses you in the world of fashion from the thirties, this is the one. It is authentic and beautifully laid out and depicts numerous costume items from the thirties, though mostly focusing on women. The pictures depict everything from dresses to shoes, hats to gloves; the women's hairstyles, makeup, undergarments, and overall looks give the reader the most ...

My sons, ages 8 and 5, absolutely LOVE these stories! They are just scary enough without going overboard, and have great plots that keep their attention the whole time. We will definitely be buying more in this series.
