Customer Review: The thing I appreciated most about this book is that Goodwin allows us to experience the voices of women and the importance of the women around Lincoln, Chase, Seward, and Bates. Although it is changing, so much American history is delivered to us through the voices of men. Not only is this a great... more info
Customer Review: I just read this book while in Ashland, Wisconsin (where I grew up). Perhaps the environs and my own history there helped me like and embrace this book. As many have stated, the ending doesn't wrap up the loose ends, doesn't feel "deserved" and it is sad. It does feel a bit rushed. That's one... more info
Customer Review: Am a buffett fan. This is a good book but I found the Roger Lowenstein book far better than this one. If you dont read snowball, you wont miss much of Buffett!
Customer Review: I am so very much connected to GRACE, from The Little Match Girl ( my favorite Anderson story) to GRACES Birthday,(mine also is October 17th) to he sexual abuse as a child. Although I had a very different outcome in life, I am so thankful that Richard Paul Evans has written this book, and touched on... more info
Customer Review: I was looking forward to a well-reasoned argument by Richard Dawkins' demonstrating that the existence of God is "unlikely". No such argument exists in this book. Dawkins' description of how a combination of evolution, many planets, and possibly many universes can explain creation is quite... more info
Customer Review: This book presented an account of history of science in 18th, 19th and 20th century. It made science interesting with stories of scientists and their rivalry. Hmmm almost like a soap opera.
The book also brings out the complexity of life and tries to define the same through simplicity of... more info
Customer Review: Brilliantly conceived and masterfully woven. The research Brown performed to make it all come together was truly impressive. This is the best book I've read this year since NAKED BRUNETTE.
Customer Review: EXCELLENT PRIMER FOR FIRST TIMERS ON BEHAVIORAL ECONOMICS. IT EXPLAINS IN PLAIN PROSE HOW WE CAN BE INFLUENCED BY OUR ENVIRONMENT TO DO THINGS WITHOUT THOUGHT.
Customer Review: Any Marlay lover must have this book. Once again, John Grogan, captures the fun and excitement of having a dog, especially at Christmas time. Young and old, you must add this wonderful book to your collection!!

Customer Review: The size is not a problem from me. This book is meant to be held by small hands. My daughter has other books this size that she walks around with pretty much all day. What bothers me is that two letters are missing. I thought I got a defective copy but I read another reviewer count 24 letters... more info

Customer Review: My 17 month old daughter received "The Best Word Book Ever" as a gift and immediately loved it. I purchased a couple other Richard Scarry books and "Cars and Trucks" has surfaced as the favorite, mainly because she loves searching for the gold bug in every scene. The other Richard Scarry books we... more info
Customer Review: This book was a good general history of FDR. It discusses his life, how he balanced his personal life with professional. It also shows the resiliency that FDR showed in overcoming polio and fighting through the Depression and the onset of World War II. FDR is shown as a man who never outpaced... more info
Customer Review: As a Richard Russo fan (I've read everything he's written), I was dumbfounded by this book at times. Unlike Empire Falls, the Bridge of Sighs takes long, rambling detours through story and emotion. I found myself at times saying, "Okay, already. Get on with it." I also found myself absolutely... more info
Customer Review: Hurry and read this book before the movie comes out! I loved this book for a number of reasons. Who knew that there was so much of this type of thinking in the fifties? I think the main characters might have been the first hippies if they followed their initial instincts - but they didn't. This... more info
Customer Review: This book is a timeless and beloved classic. It's a beautiful story of class in Jane Austen's time that appeals to us today because it is so well-wrtitten. It's scrupulously clean morally, and I would recommend it to anyone who appreciates the time when love stories were wholesome and pure and... more info
Customer Review: I have been an avid reader for most of my 59 years, but I STILL say
that this is my FAVORITE book of ALL TIME...no matter what genre...
It matters not that it is "recommended" for 9-12 year olds, if YOU
have not discovered this wonderful story, then you must! So many of
us... more info
Customer Review: This book is one of the the most chilling I have read in some time. It makes the Watergate era look like child's play. Where was Congress? Where were men of stout heart and sober minds to combat the sick minds of Cheney,Addington,Yew, and others?
Most importantly, the echoes of torture... more info
Customer Review: I teach high school, and I can tell you we have raised what we call a microwave generation: they want to push a button and it happens. They call their cell phone their "baby." When I attempted to tell them about a recent trip to Africa where I did volunteer work for animal anti-poaching in the wild,... more info
Customer Review: Richard Dawkins has become famous in the public mind as one of the strongest exponents of contemporary evolutionary theory, as well as an opponent of religion and creationism. THE SELFISH GENE is the book that launched his career as a celebrity scientist. Ostensibly it is devoted to addressing,... more info
Customer Review: I often say that almost all of my theology comes from reading "The Narnia Suite," which I read for the first time at the age of eight, and more than a dozen times thereafter. I was particularly taken with The Last Battle, in which some people are very surprised indeed to learn that those they... more info
Customer Review: I ordered four copies, one came with alot of print written in it and highlighting. Was supposed to be in excellent state and I couldn't track who sent it. Wonderful story, but the poor state of the book detracted from me giving it as a gift...I rate the story as a 5+ but the book you sent a 1.... more info
Customer Review: I can't say more on the plot because it's quite obvious what the plot is just from illustrations of the novel. But on the "controversial" aspect of the novel involving the excessive use of the N word, people have to think of the time period that Twain is writing about and when the novel was... more info
Customer Review: I bought this book thinking that even though it was abridged it would be as great as the original version. Boy was I wrong, some of the most entertaining and interesting parts of the book are GONE!
It was absolutely heartbreaking. I don't know why the publishers have altered a wonderful book... more info
Customer Review: In 2003, my associate pastor at Richmond, Virginia's First Baptist Church, Steve Booth, gave to me at my request a list of his twenty
favorite Christian books. Believe it or not, I read every one...
and to this day resting in my Top 5 reads of my life is this now more than 25-year-old... more info
Customer Review: I find that a man, even with credentials, is looking at this without any compassion. Babies and children are made to be protected and it is wired into their genes and they don't have sleep problems, just the parents who decide to not attachment parent.
I really tried to be open about this... more info
