The Ambushers
Donald Hamilton

Gold Medal PB #k1333, 1963

The top-ranking American Secret Agent rides again with good writing, slick plotting and stimulating characters. "All tartly flavored with wit," says Book Week. Another in the classic Matt Helm series. Rated R for violence.

The other reviewer has written a good review, so read that for information about the writing and art, both of which are brilliant. However, I would highly recommend not buying this specific edition. Most people don't notice that these are small "Archie's Digest" size reprints, or in other terms, ...

First I would like it to be mentioned that this is my first introduction to Walter Mosley's work. I found this book to be pretty good, but not great. The characters are great, and the plot is intriguing, but the story had quite a lot of details that began to get confusing to me. All in all, I ...

Best Bike Paths of New England: Safe, Scenic and Traffic-Free Bicycling2 reviews
Wendy Williams

Fireside, 1996

Superb Guide

+ A great appetizer!

This book is excellent. It really enhanced a recent visit to Cape Cod by decribing the various trails in a way that I thought was very accurate, and provided many details which allowed us to effectively plan our bike rides.
