1 | Excellent, almost perfect. | It is a beautiful book. Horrific, unforgettable images and a lot of tragic emotions. I would not mind to see a bit less of the American point of view, less sentimentality and more universal view, but that's only my opinion. Overall, it's a keeper. | positive |
0 | Uninformative | The events of 9-11 are still unfolding 8 years later. Scientists from BYU and the University of Copenhagen have recently completed a well-researched and comprehensive analysis of nano-thermite found within numerous samples taken on and shortly after 9-11. NIST only recently completed their investigation of Building 7, ... | negative |
0 | I was disappointed. | I have been searching for a book on 9-11 to hand down to future generations of my family, and I thought that I could not go wrong with a book published by Life. However, after perusing through the book I ended up returning it. If you are interested only in what happened in New York City, this is a great book--but the P... | negative |
1 | Guidepost To A Somber Journey | Leave it to Life Magazine to deliver both a poignantly illustrated and informative journey through the tragedy and heroics of 11 September. Unlike other publications of this disaster, Life covers all three crash sites. The photos are vivid and emotional. The information explains the minute-by-minute details while provi... | positive |
1 | Amazing pictoral look at 9-11 | I bought this as a gift to my sister, but before I wrapped it, I ended up looking through the photos that told the haunting story of 9-11. Now, granted, I have not seen the other books by other publishers, but I was amazed at the vividness captured on film. My wife is a photographer, and I know how hard she works to ca... | positive |
1 | Worth having, but... | I would like to have known before ordering that 120+ pages of this book were published by Life 2-3 weeks before, page for page, in a commemorative issue available on newstands - though in paper, and with a different title and cover (curiously, though, the lovely cover photo - a firefighter holding the flag was missing ... | positive |
1 | Great Blend Of Information & Emotion | The September 11 tragedy still haunts us. While we will never forget that horrible day, Life Magazine provides a book that enables us to reflect on the emotions in NYC, DC and PA, while providing outstanding information about the attacks and aftermath. This beautiful coffee table book includes a forward by Mayor Giulia... | positive |
1 | A Good Commemorative | This book contains some great photos of 9/11. Among the most striking are the dual page spreads on pages 72-73 and 92-93. Take a look for yourself at the unburnt paper everwhere and the satalite photo of the "Dust Plume/Cloud" respectively.Then do yourself a favor and take a look at the only foresic scientific study of... | positive |
1 | trite but true: a picture is worth a thousand words... | saw this on the chris matthews show and ordered it immediately. when it arrived at thanksgiving time, it took two days before i was able to view it--everyone else was reading it and walking off with it. for those of us who were virtually in a state of shock for the first week after 9-11, it is wonderful to be able to v... | positive |
1 | alfie einstein :) | Alfie is another british band with an unexplainable amount of talent. Unexplainable because it seems most british groups are ingenious in their own way. Where did they get it from? Who knows? But i do know that us rebels over here in the beautiful u.s., took only a bit of that musical ingenuity when crossing the big po... | positive |
1 | Charming | Here's another charming fable by Robert Nathan - your typical dog (Musket) meets dog (Susan) story: confirmed bachelor Musket gets swept off his feet by newcomer cutie in town Susan, they have a falling out (he thinks she's a flirt and untruthful, she thinks he's conceited), and then there's a reconciliation and all's ... | positive |
0 | Extremely Disappointed | When compared to some of the other wonderful literature that is available for children, this book doesn't have a leg to stand on. It was poorly written and rather boring. (...) | negative |
0 | Shame you can't rate with minus figures | If there is one good thing about this book, its that I borrowed it from a friend who had been unfortunate enough to be duped into buying it. This woman shows less skill than would be expected from the children she claims to be writing for. The writing is clumsy and inept, the concept boring. Save your time and money an... | negative |
0 | Yawn! | This was written very poorly and it is not worth your time to buy or read.I wasted 6 days to get this book and then spent 5 minutes reading the book then it took no more than one minute to decide to return the book to get a refund.This story is a complete waste of time! | negative |
0 | Positivly Atrocious! Boring beyond reason! | This book is boring,terribly written and dryer than a year old cracker. Saying that J.K Rowling plagurised this is a sheer insult to a great writer. My advice to the writer is take a little more time to actually write a good book instead of tring to sue other people! Seriously, I felt like a genuis trying to read Barne... | negative |
1 | Quick Delivery! | The book I had ordered arrived much earlier than I had expected.I very much appreciate this prompt service. | positive |
1 | Bill Engvall "15 degrees off cool" | Bill Engvall is totally funny in this video, espically when he talks about taking his F16 flight. | positive |
1 | one of the top comics in the world | He is so talented and expressive with his face. I love his humor that is relatively clean but so dead on true. | positive |
1 | Good Movie | The movie Bill Engvall: 15 Degrees Off Cool, is I think by far one of his better movies. He is such a good comedian. | positive |
1 | Bill Engvall is more like 100 degrees ON cool! | Bill Engvall videos are almost always a good bet to be funny. 15 degrees Off Cool does not let you down! His vivid comedy leaves you in stitches throughout the entire show! This video is worth your time and money! | positive |
1 | Bill Engvall 15 off cool | This is one of the best I have seen. Side splitting funny. Will watch over and over. | positive |
1 | Great Video | This is the best video he has done since "Here's your sign." I would recommend this video to everyone I know. | positive |
0 | I SADLY MUST SAY THAT THIS IS BORING.... | I'm a huge fan of Kai Hansen. I also like very much some recent works by German powermetal bands ( "EXCALIBUR" by Grave Digger and "NIGHTFALL ON MIDDLE EARTH" by BLind Guardian, for example ). But Kai Hansen appearance in IRON SAVIOR is almos as guest, since Pit Sielck writes all the songs, sings, plays guitar, bass an... | negative |
0 | SAVE ME FROM IRON SAVIOR !!! | God, another European power / melodic metal band !!! THis one had a good start, possessing Kai Hansen along their ranks. So I went for it !! What a deception!!! It's so repetitive, boring, dumb. If you like real metal, I can say these guy tried to do it, but failed miserably !! | negative |
1 | Awesome Business English Book!!! | I used this text for an online class and it was just an exceptional experience. I also had the option of visiting the classroom, which was completely out of the picture once I started turning the pages. The chapters were clear and passages easy to follow. The grammar/mechanics handbook section was really great. I have ... | positive |
1 | Excellent Text for Business Writers | As an instructor of business writing, the exercises in the text are excellent. The chapters a bit dense for the casual student. However, the overall work teaches and focuses on true problems in the work place. The e-mail and memo writing materials nail it. | positive |
1 | Marketing Textbook | The book was in perfect condition, however, it didn't come with the user access code for internet review websites. | positive |
0 | Essentials of Business communication by Mary Ellen Guffey | This is a concise version of the book but not the original book. Even i can't return it since there is no return policy. Accidentally i placed 2 books but i didn't find any option to cancel it. Even i tried contacting the sellers but no use. | negative |
0 | Order cancelled | Never received item, vendor not very responsive or helpful via feedback - did not reply for days. Ended up cancelling order due to long delay between order date and vendor never providing proof of delivery. Ordered on 1/5 and cancelled 1/27/09. I still have not received confirmation nor acknowledgement from vendor of t... | negative |
0 | I still have not recieved the book I ordered 11-19. So I can't really give an opinion, | I still have not recieved my book that I ordered 11-19.I have filed a claim. I can not give an opinion about the book. | negative |
1 | Good For the 'New ' No Limit | C-Murder is obviously Master P's little brother. With a similar delivery and all most identical voice, he finally has begun his approach out of his big bro's shadow. Kinda sad to see some of the faces gone after No Limit has revamped(biggest manuever NO Beats by the Pound), but their new musical style is gonna keep the... | positive |
1 | C-Murder is back | 1st OF I AM A NL FAN 4 LIFE C CAME TIGHT ON THIS 1 I DONT EVEN HAVE THIS BUT I HEARD EVERY SONG WHAT U BOUT IS DA BEST SONG ON THERE I GOT ALL C'S CD'S BUT THIS MIGHT BE BETTER THAN LIFE OR DEATH I SUGGEST EVERY NO LIMIT FAN 2 GET THIS ESPECIALLY 4 THE BEATS. | positive |
1 | Good No Limit Release | Third No Limit release of 2000, and NL has definetely improved. The beats are better, and C-Murder is definetely doing his own thing w/ TRU Records and keeping the No Limit style. The best songs are 2,3,4,5,7,12,15,17,18,22,23,and 24. | positive |
1 | TRU RECORDS got dat work! | WuDDuP ya'll...Dis DuEcE_BiG aka BlaCC JiGaLo! Now jus cuz C-Murda from No Limit I aint buy this tha 1st day! But I got it bout a week ago...and I see dat C-Murda needz 2 be takin seriously! At 1st I wuz kinda swole at "C" 4 bitin off 'Pac...but I respect him now! (Otha peeps should 2) Witout "P" 2 do tha production...... | positive |
0 | Very Penetrating | Rumor has it that Cinnamon Moonpie (better known as C-Murder) had wanted to title his CD "Trapped in a Man's Ass", but his handlers warned that it might dampen sales. They also forced him to change some of the more explicitly homoerotic lyrics into more standard gangsta bling-bling tropes. Personally, I think the origi... | negative |
1 | CD Classic | This is C-Murders best album, and a classic. With no production credits to beats by the pound, Deadly soundz did great. Althouh Kenoe and his traitor self, did a couple of good songs. I think this album shows good steady down south music. This album proves that he is the best rapper in the no limit camp. It is a great ... | positive |
0 | Better beats, but C Murder is still on Tupac's jock | The beats on this CD are alot better than what No Limit has put out before. I just wish C Murder could get off Tupac's jock because he's got Tupacs flow all up in his mouth. | negative |
0 | lack of a good rap voice and too many sample s | altough some of the music is not bad and the lyrics aren't all that stupid the ridiculois voice of C-Murder make this album not an atractive hear, besides he uses a lot of samples | negative |
1 | C-Murder Is For Real | Tapped In Crime is a MASTERPIECE cd. C-Murder has hits on this on every street. The good songs are Forever Tru, Concrete Jungle, They dont really Know you, Want Beef, Ride, On da block, What you bout, Down 4 my N's, That Calliope, and alot More. Down 4 My N's is the best song on this joint this song feat. Snoop and Mr.... | positive |
1 | C Murder--almost literally | Well.With news that C-Murder tried to kill a man at a club recently (August '01), I thought Id review the CD. Trapped in Crime is probably C-Murder's second best CD. It's better than Bossalinie but not quite as good as Life or Death. The CD features the usual suspects like Master P, Silkk, Snoop Dogg, Krazy, Magic, so ... | positive |
1 | Well made CD by C-Murder | Tru,this CD does not rank up there with his debut album "Life or death"in terms of emotions,but the party joints on this CD are enough to make up for that.When C-Murder does try to be emotional in "Where do we go"feat.Young Silkk,he fails.The beats are too fast for an emotional song and the vocals are garbage.The good ... | positive |
0 | if i could giv it 0 starz i would | waste of money, do NOT get this, this is poser rip-off rap, at it's worst, c-murder blatanly rips off 2pac rhyming style, the beats are throwaway at best...they stock is crumblin | negative |
0 | Weird and Ultimately Self-Defeating | I'm really not sure what to think about this new Gay Gangsta Rap. It seems to me that the whole rap genre itself is inherently hostile to a gay sensibility. I appreciate the effort Bambu Taschiaglou (C-Murder's real name) has put into trying to use rap to make the black gangsta community accept these alternative lifest... | negative |
1 | No knowledge required; lots of understanding gained | Without any knowledge of programming whatsoever, the reader learns the main programming aims (input, storage, evaluation, repetition, comparison/selection, and output) using Visual Basic as an example paradigm.A lot of hands-on exercises are provided throughout. A complete application is gradually developed through all... | positive |
0 | Learning to Program with Visual Basic | I had to buy this book for a class and frankly it is not a good book. Lots of code errors that make it confusing. Every one of my classmates complained about the book. The professor eventually told us to not use the book and he gave handouts he had written instead. | negative |
0 | Do not read this book!!! | If you enjoyed the rest of the series, stop and don't read this book. Yes, you will be left wondering what happens to the rest of the swords, who is the Emperor, what happens to Mark and the rest, but live with the curiosity. This book goes beyond anticlimactic, it is just awful. The ending and the explanation of the E... | negative |
0 | a disappointing end to a great series | I've been following this series all the way from its beginning with the Empire of the East series and I was extremely disappointed with the seemingly rushed way this one was written. Egad, what a goofy way to explain the Emperor figure. I was hoping for an intelligent tie in back to the Empire of the East premise, but ... | negative |
0 | regretful | If you loved the series please,please do not read the last book it will leave you totally disappointed to say the least! | negative |
0 | Egads! | I was all set to write a stinging review of the terrible book that killed this great series- but it would just echo what has already been written. And that ending- good grief Fred, what were you smoking??? So, I am here just to slam this piece of garbage with 1 star. | negative |
0 | Unsatisfying ending makes a good book mediocre | Most of the book was fine, but the end section was a poor conclusion to the book, and the series. (WARNING! Specific plot details follow!) Just so readers are forewarned, the Emperor is never explained, and he gives a strange quasi-religious statement about himself. Here it is, verbatim: "Some long ago have called me t... | negative |
1 | A compact and well written book. | The proofs are well structured and easy to follow. The techniques used in the proofs lend themselves for use in other situations. A lot of information is embeded in the exercises which keep the students alert and focused and at the same time saves time and space. A good book for undergraduates in mathematical analysis. | positive |
0 | A little lacking | I had to get this book for my advanced calculus class. There are 3 issues I have with this book. First, that the material in any given chapter gives what is needed to work most, BUT NOT ALL, of the problems at the end of the given chapter. Second, having solutions to selected exercises is a good tool to have, and if an... | negative |
0 | THE text on advanced calculus at my school | I can't believe this is the book my advanced calc 1 class used at university. They sold it to me for $114.50+tax! This is a deal here. This class was the hardest class I took for undergrad. The book was no help. I learned everything I knew from the teacher and from the Internet/study groups. I do like how organized the... | negative |
0 | Extremely unclear | As a math major, I am of course interested in the subject of Real Analysis. But I cannot agree with the other reviews in that the book is very UNACCESSIBLE to undergraduates! I have poured through the first 3 chapters until I almost have them memorized and the concepts are NOT CLEAR. Instead of explaining what is going... | negative |
1 | Great book by Great Guru | In my college days ,i found Edward D gaughan's 'Introduction to Analysis',amidst pile of other books.I read the preface countless times.With his words of encouragement and admonishment ,writer makes you more comfortable ,in your long journey of Mathematics which is real and abstract at once!! I liked this book;After a ... | positive |
1 | Cats love this ! ! ! | WOW....I can't believe how much my cats love this cardboard scratcher. I have one kitty that sleeps on it all the time. I send them to Finland and my son's cat sharpens it's claws and sleeps on it and thats without the catnip. The kitty shreds it until theres a hole in the middle (takes about 3 months)and then hides in... | positive |
0 | They don't fit | These replacement pads are smaller than the originals, so they don't "hook" under the edges and when a cat gets their claw in it, it flies out of the scratcher. Useless! | negative |
1 | great scratcher | My cat never took to the traditionaol scratching post. We have used these for years now and I highly recommend it. Initially the catnip drew her to it---now she just loves when her old board gets replaced with a new one. | positive |
1 | Alpine Cat Scratcher Replacement Pad | This was a very good product at a reasonable price. The vendor shipped in a very timely manner. Very satisfied. | positive |
1 | long lasting | I highlight my notes a lot (and I have a lot of notes), and these lasted me over a year. I feel that's pretty good for a standard highlighter. The colors are nice: not too light and not too dark. They didn't bleed over my papers and the tips stayed sharp (did not fray). | positive |
0 | Good if you do not need to highlight a lot of information | I bought these highlighters thinking that they would last for a long time. Being a college student, I have a lot that needs to get highlighted. These highlighters did not last me long at all. | negative |
1 | Excelent purchase at the right price | Indeed a great surprise to have this watch at the marked cost.It coped all my expectations | positive |
1 | A Testimony: Conversion to Screenplays | This affectionate and humorous screenplay moves so quickly it may convert me to reading fewer novels, more screenplays. It is also a beautifully motivated piece and, in my opinion, Gompertz's best writing to date. What a lovely seasonal gift this will make--for yourself or a friend.----Reviewed by Carolyn Howard-Johnso... | positive |
1 | Conjurer of Reality and Fantasy | Gompertz's uproarious tale of a Messiah in our midst is original, witty, and yet inducing serious thought. It is at once cynical and pious, down to earth and wholly implausible. With tongue in cheek, Gompertz can be tender and sardonic, mocking and sincere. His dialogue flows naturally, and he obviously knows the ins a... | positive |
0 | Buyer beaware | The whole cd is re-renditions of the originals. No Mike Post involved, no Larry Carlton's signature guitar sound in the main theme. Disappoining. | negative |
0 | Little practical advice | When you are thinking about starting your own business, probably the last thing you need is this sort of fluffy advice to become "mature", wear a suit, and heavily network. I was hoping for more solid information, like the virtues of incorporating rather than being a sole proprietor and other real concerns of a small b... | negative |
0 | What book did the other reviewers read? | I'm very disappointed with this book. Very vague and broad examples and not a lot of the nuts and bolts of success. Jennifer Kushell is the self crowned princess of the young entrepreneurial spirit. She claims to have launched successfull business ventures but never elaborates anywhere in her books or websites and inst... | negative |
0 | Hackneyed commentary by a johnny-come lately | Not very interesting or informative. Better to buy a year's subscription to INC Magazine or Harvard's Entrepreneur Book.There is very little new information provided here. In fact some, of the information is leads the reader astray from 1999-2000 issues (LLC's, tax implications, true cashflow analysis) | negative |
1 | Wonderful Book | This is a wonderful book. I am new to the Catholic faith and had many questions. This book answered them all. It is very informative without being too long. I could not put it down. Now that I have finished reading, if I need to answer a quick question, I can look it up in this book. There are many misconceptions about... | positive |
1 | Catholic and Christian | Outstanding book on my Catholic Faith. I would recommend this book to all Catholics especially in this Year Of Faith. Too many of us Catholic do not have a deep understanding of our catholic teachings. This book is a good starting point for reading more books on /about Catholic Teachings. | positive |
0 | VERY UPSET | I ordered the edition from 2004, but instead I received the 1984 edition. There is a reason that I ordered the newer edition. It is 25 years old!!! | negative |
0 | Needs serious revision | This book needs a serious revision. There are many current Catholic doctrines and practices that are not addressed (i.e. why no married priests in the midst of such a serious shortage?). I would not give this to a person considering becoming catholic or someone who has questions because current issues are not dealt wit... | negative |
1 | One of the best apologetics works I have read, very fair | This book will not offend the non-catholic like others may. Best overall explanation of misunderstood beliefs about the church I have read. Both Catholics and non-Catholics will benefit from this read. When I explain to my family and friends my reasons for converting, I usually refer to this book. | positive |
1 | Great Beginning. Great discussion of Justifcation. | This book is worth it for the early discussion on the Catholic faith and then Dr. Schreck's discussion of Justification by faith and works. If you are like me, you might have a Protestant view of salvation. For me I could never quite reconcile this view with the book of James. If you are not quite sure of the Chhurch's... | positive |
1 | Clear, Concise explanations | I'm planning on loaning this book out to some of my Protestant friends who have misconceptions about Catholicism. Mr. Schreck successfully refutes such notions as "the Catholic Church puts its own hierarchy above scripture," "the Catholic Church teaches Pelagian works righteousness," and "Catholics deify Mary and the S... | positive |
1 | Identical(?) to ASIN B000008B9R | Hodges & Davis were great, and I wish more of their stuff were readily available. But this one appears to be a duplicate of "In a Mellow Tone". It has the same two artists and the same track list as ASIN B000008B9R. (Damn. And there were so few albums of these guys as it was!) | positive |
1 | Super handy for beginners | I have bought several copies of this book. It is just so useful to give to someone I am teaching to crochet. The pictures are super clear and they can use them to remind themselves of the stitches. Also the projects are very well written up and pictured and help the learner to progress in skills and the projects are no... | positive |
1 | Great instructions; recommended for beginners. Only a few wearable patterns though. | This book has great instructions and is the first book you should purchase. It's very clear and informative but also has tons of information on how to get fancier once you are ready. It's very convenient that it stands up.However, I only give it 4 stars because so many of the patterns are ugly. Who is seriously going t... | positive |
1 | Making effective changes in your business | This book highlights the components necessary to create and sustain a high performing team, operation or business. Bud Bilanich addresses the key factors that must be attended for any business to sustain itself over time in a meaningful way. His writing style is straight forward, to-the-point and applicable. I am using... | positive |
0 | Dud! | I usually don't go for the mechanical stuffed animals because their motions tend to be jerky and they are not cuddly because of the motor. My daughter wanted a pug. We already have a dog and two cats, this was a consolation and I felt it was not worth the money. It doesn't do much other than bark when you tug the toy. ... | negative |
1 | 1984 all over again? | We is a book all about beating the system. It follows one man's life through a journal he is writing to send on the spaceship, Integral, to primitive civilizations like us. The journal writing style and many other features reminded me greatly of 1984. This is a classic book about the impossibility of a true utopia. The... | positive |
1 | Oui | This is my second endeavor into the famed distopia trilogy. Unfortunately, I should have read this one first. I loved Brave New World, but I think this is in a class by itself. I read somewhere that Brave New World was written without knowledge of this book, which would make the similarities uncanny. Anyway, This story... | positive |
1 | The perfect totalitarian state. | Cynical and cold story about a 'Benefactor', who creates together with his lackeys a state of totally depersonalized citizens: conscience is a disease, cruelty is a sign of love, without liberty no crimes can be committed, sex is planned ...The precursor of George Orwell's '1984' and, more, of Aldous Huxley's 'Brave Ne... | positive |
1 | Compare to "Brave New World" | Read it to compare it to Huxley's work. I don't think this matches "Brave New World", but make your own determination. | positive |
0 | This book was wack! | We, for me, was not a good read. Perhaps if I was a mathematician and not have read the other dystopia books, Brave New World and 1984, it would have been a fun book to read as other reviewers have stated. Perhaps this was a serious book, but it was not an entertaining book to read. The book was a can. | negative |
1 | WE | WE is a great novel that simply expalines the chain of change and the non-existance of the perfect system. Ans so the need of revolution I think reading this book is a must for s/f lovers | positive |
1 | An interesting pre-Orwell dystopia | It is said that George Orwell lifted some material for "1984" from this book, and one can truly see the parallels. "We" is a masterpiece; though not always as involving as "1984", it is well constructed and powerful. A fairly quick read, "We" will keep you interested and leave you with an interesting literary history l... | positive |
1 | A comfortable prison is still a prison. | Where George Orwell's 1984 was an attack on Stalinism, We is an attack on Leninism. This makes it particularly uncomfortable to Communist apologists who like to blame the brutality of the Soviet Union on Stalin, while freeing Lenin of any respondsibility. Zamyatin contradicts any such whitewash; the "Welldoer" (Lenin),... | positive |
1 | We | I have alot of interest in the books 1984, and Burgess's 1985 who also wrote Clockwork Orange. This book was hard to read and really didnt make alot of sense most of the time. Is more Science Fiction than anything else-not a view of the future. The main character is found to have a "soul" which of course makes him ment... | positive |
1 | A pretty Damn Good Book | This book is so good a great Canadain band called the Tea Party wrote a whole album about it called "Transmission". Pick up the book and the CD. They both rock and are a mindasul | positive |
0 | Do Not Buy This Scanner | I purchased this scanner about 18 months ago and paid a great deal of money for it (purchased elsewhere). I work in a professional graphic studio and needed a large flatbed. The first scanner arrived DOA, and it was returned. The second scanner died within one week. Recently, I started to notice severe color variations... | negative |
1 | 50's Jazz | I'm sorry I didn't find this sooner. Its awesome. The liner notes were priceless as well. They tell the story of high school music teacher and his brother leaving Florida, landing in New York, and playing in clubs with the greats like Hampton, Coltrane, and Miles Davis. Meanwhile making a name for themselves. Great alb... | positive |
0 | Daughter of time | the book is very boring for my taste but its essential for what you may have to study for the class. | negative |
0 | People like this book? | Well written, but boring and containing bad conclusions. The whole story hinges on a laid-up detective thinking a painting of someone's face makes him look innocent of murder. What!? Come on! Give me Agatha Christie. | negative |
1 | A Well-Deserved Cherished Classic | It took me too long to finally get to Josephine Tey's The Daughter of Time. I gulp down mystery novels whole and I devour unreservedly every scrap of British royal history so what could be more appropriate than this classic. Perhaps I have read too many actual works of history, albeit of the wonderful pop variety kind ... | positive |
1 | Everyone Should Read this Book! | Yes, everyone. I mean it. Tey's storytelling is terrific. Her arguments in favor of Richard's innocence are compelling. Far more important, however, is her brilliant ability to help us truly understand what it means for history to be written by the victors. Anyone who reads this books and does not spend some time re-ex... | positive |
1 | One of my favorite mysteries | I can't recommend this highly enough. Years ago it was the first eye opener for me that history might not be all the textbooks said it was, but this time I simply enjoyed the humor and interactions of the characters. I think it possible that Richard III is right up there with Hamlet in my list of "dreamy maligned heroe... | positive |
1 | Great Classic | Was Richard III a ruthless murderer of children or was he one of the finest, most honorable monarchs of Britain? Innovative, great read. | positive |
1 | Witty, dynamic and uncomplicated | Dynamic and uncomplicated story that keeps unraveling with the speed of an avalanche.Set in an unexpected surroundings (a hospital), the story evolves around the investigationand subsequent discovery of the true reason behind the murders of the Two Princes in 1483.The writing style is engaging, full of interesting fact... | positive |
1 | Brain-teaser, brilliant, historical mystery | Some say this book is responsible for the renewed interest in Richard III. Whether true or not, it certainly peaked my curiosity.It's chock full of history. But I have one word of caution: If you know nothing about the Wars of the Roses, the reign of Edward IV or Richard III, I recommend you first read Sharon Kay Penma... | positive |
