Martinique, Guadeloupe, Dominica & St. Lucia Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)My wife and I went to St. Lucia in April. We had prepared for our trip by reading all this book had to say about the island, which was very helpful in planning day trips, money exchange, restaurants, etc. We took the book with us and it was extremely helpful with maps when we drove around the island,...

One Hundred Semesters: My Adventures as Student, Professor, and University President, and What I Learned along the Way Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This charming and insightful educational memoir manages to tell us more about what's happening in higher education than could a truckload of educational studies. And Chace does it simply by telling his story. Leaning toward West Point (a big place that trains warriors and engineers) over Haverford (a...

Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft Windows Vista All in One Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I was thinking of giving this just three stars, but after using Vista for a month, the book does seem to be complete and fairly accurate, so I didn't want to ding it too badly.Now for the bad part. For one, the book is way too big at 750 pages. As someone with a good knowledge of XP and a few days poking...

Amusement Parks of Pennsylvania Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)As most roller coaster enthusiasts know, there are very few books that go beyond pretty full-color photographs and into the history of a particular park. It is even more difficult to find information on parks not owned by major corporations (e.g. Disney, Paramount, Vivendi Universal).Futrell's book captures...

Big Book of Windows Hacks Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)§Despite Microsoft's claims that their vaunted "focus groups" and client experience consultants have allowed them to offer us painless computing, you and the rest of the world know it isn't true. Waiting for Windows XP or Vista to boot up and shut down certainly are irritations in themselves worth a...

Frommer's San Francisco 2008 (Frommer's Complete) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)After reading the book from cover to cover, I feel like I am now an expert on San Francisco! We have been there before, but are looking forward to exploring (next month)areas of SF that we haven't been to yet. The in depth reporting, and mapping, of all areas of the city will make it a breeze to get...

Bad Boys of the Black Hills...And Some Wild Women, Too (Bedside Reader Series) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)One of the attractions of the Wild West is the collection of men and women who explored, settled and 'civilized' those lands.

Writing at the End of the World (Pitt Comp Literacy Culture) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Writing at the End of the World asks hard questions. And suggests balanced and hopeful answers: Richard Miller questions the idea that literature is supposed to be magically "transformative" and gives a model of a slow, gradual process of working towards inner change through the teaching of texts and...

Los Angeles: An Architectural Guide Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This book is a great resource for those interested in architecture in Los Angeles, but it has MAJOR problems. Not only are the maps inaccurate about 50% of the time (wrong intersection, wrong place along a street, or just plain wrong), but I have also found several listings for which the street address...

Frommer's Alaska 2009 (Frommer's Complete) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)As someone who lives in Alaska, operates a popular Alaska travel website (Alaska.org), and helps people plan custom Alaska vacations, I can confidently say this is the most useful general guidebook to our state. It's more comprehensive, more readable, and more detailed than other Alaska guidebooks. I...
