1.[no image]Eat, Pray, Love
from Viking

Customer Review:
This is brilliantly written in that it captures the emotion of the author giving the book substance. The narrative from beginning to end is clear. This is a book about 'transition', and none the less 'transformation', and solitude in the arm's of non medication, meditation. We see Elizabeth Gilbert... more info

This year - 2008 - marks the 400th anniversary of the founding of Quebec or New France, as it was called then.

3.Into Thin AirInto Thin Air
from Random House Audio Price-less

Customer Review:
I really liked this book. This book is a well-written story from Jon Krakauer. I say `story' because history is about people telling their story. The situation that occurred back in 1996 has become historical. There have been several books written and a couple of movies made to tell about the fatal... more info

4.Holding Fast: The Untold Story of the Mount Hood TragedyHolding Fast: The Untold Story of the Mount Hood Tragedy
from Thomas Nelson
Price: $16.49

Customer Review:
Now, if like me you were otherwise occupied in 2006 (we were completely tied up in our own problems at the time and not watching the news) you may have missed the incident related in Holding Fast: The Story of the Mt. Hood Tragedy. Three climbers became trapped on Mt. Hood and there was an intensive... more info

from Algonquin Books
Price: $12.89

Customer Review:
I cannot tell a lie...I read but the first couple of chapters of this book. So this "review" is actually more of a warning. It's difficult to fathom where all the positive opinions of this book come from. I had to stop reading, as I do when a book/author loses all credibility.
From what I could... more info

from Vintage
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
After having read only about 50 pages of this book, I am seriously questioning the historical accuracy of it. I am an amateur of Medieval, and in particular Venetian, history and I find that Mr. Bergreen oversimplifies and generalizes some events and conditions of 13th C Europe to a bothering... more info

from University of Arizona Press
Price: $26.37

Customer Review:
In 1968 Edward Abbey wrote a memoir, Desert Solitaire, A Season In The Wilderness, that would instantly be hailed as a nature classic, as well as his bestselling work. While familiar with EA's name the only work of his I'd read up to this point was a woeful collection of the man's `poetry'. Believe... more info
