2.Angela s AshesAngela's Ashes
from Large Print Press
Price: $10.16

Customer Review:
The basic problem with it is that while McCourt's life of poverty in Ireland is interesting and there are a couple of dozen well written passages and anecdotes, the work is atrociously edited. All the more galling for the lack of good editing is that this was McCourt's first book- he needed the... more info

3.[no image]Brave Companions: Portraits in History
from Prentice Hall Trade

Customer Review:
All writers, especially biographers and journalists, have a collection of vignettes in their notebooks or files that are like film outtakes -- they're left on the cutting room floor. Here, McCullough gathers up his outtakes relating to fascinating people, places and things and puts them together in... more info

from Doubleday Books

Customer Review:
It was a well written story. Unfortunately, there were a ridiculous number of grammar and spelling errors as well as a couple incorrect facts that really devalued the book for me. I couldn't read 10 pages without seeing a mistake like "the the". I was especially disappointed by these errors since it... more info

from Popular Culture Ink

Customer Review:
I've been an ardent Patricia Cornwell fan, since I read the first of her books, Post Mortem, about two summers ago. Since then, I've been trying to get my hands on her books, in the order that she wrote them, so as to follow the character building that she's done for the Chief Medical Examiner of... more info

6.Running in the FamilyRunning in the Family
from McClelland and Stewart

Customer Review:
I thoroughly enjoyed this book for its exotic locale and irreverent description of the author's own family. In fact, it made me laugh out loud in places.

7.[no image]Quicksheet Citing Online Historical Sources
from Genealogical Pub Co

Customer Review:
I needed an update guide of "How To" for citing online sources for my history research. It was better than I had hoped. It covered several types of sourecs material I had not considered. I believe it a good backup for larger style manuals.

9.American DynastyAmerican Dynasty
from Penguin Books Ltd

Customer Review:
I wish this book had been read widely before the 2004 election. And even more, that it had been published before the 2000 election. It puts a whole different perspective on the forces that have brought us to such unhappy consequenses in the USA. I found this book to be highly informative,... more info

from Vintage
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
This is a history of the family of Authoress Lisa See. It reads like a good novel. Her grandfather came to the United States in the early 1900s and met and married a white woman and had several children with her. The story goes back and forth between California and China. It is a must read.
