Unfinished Business - The Life and Times of Danny Gatton13 reviews
Ralph Heibutzki

Backbeat Books, 2003

Thorough Research & an Appreciative Ear
The other reviewers have discussed the merits of Danny's playing, so I will mostly stick to extolling the book. Heibutzki talked to just about everybody, and found most if not all of the print material and used this in his thoughtful, comprehensive biography. As an interviewer, the author got his subjects to open up, and what they say frequently tells as much about themselves as about Danny. As ...

Echelon Press, 2002

Unfinished Business6 reviews
Barbara Seranella

Robert Hale Ltd, 2004

SERANELLA'S BEST SO FAR!
Being a debut mystery writer who splits his time between the Palm Springs area and the Southern California Orange Coast, I found myself instantly linked in the minds of many booksellers and book readers with another mystery writer, Barbara Seranella, who splits her time in a similar fashion. Having been a devoted reader of Munch Mancini since her debut, I was pleased by the comparison. Having ...

The Unfinished City: New York and the Metropolitan Idea5 reviews
Thomas Bender

NYU Press, 2007

A Stunning Collection
This compilation of essays about the culture, history, and concept of New York City is both thought-provoking and passionate. But be warned: this is no Introduction to New York History 101 book, and definitely should not find itself on the top of any coffee table. This is a studious and sophisticated account of Gotham's fluid and, as the title states, unending role in the modern world's ... 		  
  







  
  
An unfinished song: The life of Victor Jara9 reviews
Joan Jara

Ticknor & Fields, 1984

This book should be more easily available!!
This is an incredible book about Victor Jara, the musician and activist in the Chilean struggle against fascism and imperialism, and his brutal murder by Pinochet and his forces. It is also a book about the people of Chile, and chronicles carefully their poverty as well as their amazing spirit. To the non-Chilean reader it provides an important account of the workings of imperialism. Joan Jara's ... 		  
  







  
  
Unfinished Business6 reviews
Susan C. Ramirez

Commonwealth Pubns Inc, 1996

Really understand the "Mormon" Lifestyle -- and the pain of young widowhood
Have you ever wondered about those "Mormons"? What they are really like? Have you been told strange things about them by your pastor, and seen their young men going door to door in their white shirts with little nametags with their Books of Mormon? Well, they do put their pants on one leg at a time, just like other folks, and they do have normal lives -- in a way. But within their society and ... 		  
  







  
  
Final Salute: A Story of Unfinished Lives23 reviews
Jim Sheeler

Penguin Audio, 2008

Lasting Impression
This is truly a book that stays with you. Has even prompted me to get the flag from my grandmother's military funeral (World War I Wave)out of the cedar chest and put it on display. Incidentally, the only paper book I have read since getting my Kindle. Additionally, I am totally against the war, but this book gives a clear picture of those who have gone and not returned. Beautifully done!! 		  
  







  
  
Unfinished Business14 reviews
Jon Hargrove

Mundania Press LLC, 2005

4.5 Klovers! Courtesy of CK2S Kwips & Kritiques
An injury forced ex-football player Jim Knighthorse out of the game, and side-swiped a potential career in the NFL. But he has recuperated, is in training, and may have another shot at a pro football career. In the meantime, he pays the bills doing the only other thing he knows - investigative work. Although circumstances may have dictated his current career, he's darn good at it, and takes it ... 		  
  







  
  
Disney That Never Was: The Stories and Art of Five Decades of Unproduced Animation5 reviews
Charles Solomon

Disney Editions, 1995

Fascinating Information
I was lucky enough to find a copy of this out-of-print book and I am really glad that I did. This book is packed with drawings created by Disney artists that were working on projects that were never put into production. Along with the drawings are the stories of the projects and in most cases, the reason why they were never completed. I was especially interested in the material that was ... 		  
  







  
  
Unfinished Business4 reviews
Diana Beard-Williams

Llumina Press, 2005

Food For The Soul
Won..der...ful! feel as if I now personally know the main characters. Had gotten so wrapped up in their lives that I hated it when I ran out of pages to read. It's amazing how our lives are shaped by another's deed and how it all comes full circle. Regina and Carrie are my friends.Rosa is my hero. The book was an amazing journey worth taking again. 		  
  







  
  
Unfinished Conquest: The Guatemalan Tragedy5 reviews
Victor Perera

University of California Press, 1995

One of the best on this topic.......
Victor Perera is a native guatemalan who took the better part of 6 years to write this book. This book is chock full of great information gathered from hundreds of interviews. Perera doesn't waste time trying to interpret the events he writes about, instead he let's the participants and witnesses speak for themselves. He interviews everybody for this book from wealthy landowners, government ... 		  
  







  
  
1972 : A Novel of Ireland's Unfinished Revolution (Irish Century)4 reviews
Morgan Llywelyn, 2005

Superb saga
I have just finished reading the Irish century series up to date within the past few months, and 1972 is just another link in a fine chain on novels by Llywelyn. From the first book (1916) with a young Ned Halloran all they way up to Ned's grandson Barry in her latest masterpiece 1972, Llywelyn tells the story of the Republican movement from the Easter rising to Bloody Sunday. It's amazing how ... 		  
  







  
  
Korea and Its Futures: Unification and the Unfinished War4 reviews
Roy Richard Grinker

Palgrave Macmillan, 1998

Excellent, Unique book
I'm not aware that there is an comparable book on Korea. Some may find it too "academic" (I don't) but the prose is still lucid and it is a unique book. Anyone interested in north-south Korea relations should read this. The material on defectors is especially good. 		  
  







  
  
The Unfinished Gospel: Notes on the Quest for the Historical Jesus5 reviews
Evan Powell

Symposium Books, 1994

This book is an intriguing discussion of John's gospel.
This excellent and very readable book provides an unusual view of the order and importance of John's gospel relative to the synoptic gospels (Mark, Luke, and Matthew). The author examines the internal evidence in John's gospel, compares it to the material in the synoptic gospels, and deduces that John's gospel must have been written before the others. This reversal of the usual dating sequence ... 		  
  







  
  
Unfinished Business4 reviews
Brian Gordon Kennelly

Rodopi Bv Editions, 1997

Out-Genet's Genet
Clearly has an insight which needs further exploration. Such original thinking should encourage further scholarship along the same lines, but I hope we hear from Kennelly again real soon. 		  
  







  
  
The Second Four Books of Poems: The Moving Target / The Lice / The Carrier of Ladders / Writings to an ...4 reviews
W. S. Merwin

Copper Canyon Press, 1993

If looking to define the feeling haunting you, read on.
I suggest reading on, because I have a small but appropriate few sentences to write about Merwin. I first came across Merwin when I was assigned to find a poet I liked who was still living for a poetry class. That is to say, not living for my poetry class in particular, but, a poet still alive, so my known favorites, Solomon of the Superlative Song, William Morris, Eugene Fields or Henry W. ...
