1.A Commonwealth of Thieves: The Improbable Birth of AustraliaA Commonwealth of Thieves: The Improbable Birth of Australia
from Tantor Media
Price: $15.02

Customer Review:
The limited scope of Kennealy's story, focusing on the first few years of the Australian experiment, allows for a really nice degree of detail in his telling about those years. The narrative style he uses makes this a very enjoyable history as well as a thorough one.

from Miramax
Price: $29.62

Customer Review:
I first saw the Miramax movie starring Kenneth Branagh, which was based upon this book. I was intrigued enough by the film to read this book. I was not disappointed. This book is certainly a testament to the human spirit. It also reveals the harsh, paternalistic and racist policies that the... more info

from W. W. Norton & Company
Price: $7.94

Customer Review:
I was told that as a mother of a young boy I needed to read this book. I anxiously awaited for it to arrive in the mail a few weeks ago but have yet to finish it. I lost interest.

Three friends and I searched for books by Elizabeth several years ago. Almost all our copies were found in used and/or antique bookstores. It was wonderful fun to find a rare book by Elizabeth, but even more wonderful was to have a chance to read each of her 22 books! They are all marvelous, but... more info

Having been a FAC myself I can appreciate this pilots acts of valor and his representation of how Fac's felt such a great loyalty to those they were helping on the ground.

from Random House, Inc.
Price: $50.00

Customer Review:
Elizabeth von Arnim lived an unconventional life, shot through with both tragedy and personal success. It is characteristic of the sense of humor found in her writing that she should ignore the sparkling social circle of which she was a part at the turn of the century and choose instead to write the... more info

10.Mary Poppins, She Wrote: The Life of P. L. TraversMary Poppins, She Wrote: The Life of P. L. Travers
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $2.90

Customer Review:
As a discerning reader may suspect from the title of the book "Mary Poppins, She Wrote", there seems to be a lack of deep thought invested in this biography of P.L. Travers. There is no doubt that Valerie Lawson thoroughly researched her subject, but I do not think she invested enough time in... more info
