Review:Jo Issa Rae is hilarious and so relateable. I read this book, cover to cover in a day. I look forward to more from her in any medium. More TV shows, more books, her creative self is just as beautiful as she is. Thank you for sharing. Read more
Review:This book is worth the price only for the chapters dealing with the history of Marxist strategy in America, where Bretibart shows the connections and evolution from a hard line Leninist violent takeover of society to a soft cultural Marxist revolution that we see today, going through Antonio Gramsci and the School of Frankfurt. The fact that these concepts have been disclosed to the mass public is a great achievement for Breitbart. Americans have this strange notion that "this can't happen here... Read more

Review:I was disappointed that the booked was billed as the best book on the Middle East when it was more of a travel bio in the 1980 timeframe. Good antidotes and some history but too outdated. For example Sadam in Irac is history not an understanding on current Middle East Read more

Review:careful where you read it, an emotional trip on each diary entry. Inspirational if the worlds teachers were all half as good. If we were all half as good as we could be toward each other... a must read for all schools, but how many will be brave enough to highlight their short comings.. and ours.. Read more
Review:If you're a Dan & Phil fan, this is a must have. I'm not -- but... my daughter is. It's not that I'm not a fan. It's just I don't "like" and "subscribe". This book is full of wonderful color pictures. It's heavy. If you have weak arms, it's probably not the book for you unless you reading it on a table. Sadly, my version did come with a little ripple indentation in the hard cover. It's not like I'm going to send it back though. I'd probably end up with the same book sent back to me.... Read more
Review:This is an amazing and disturbing book. Why someone didn't intervene during her school days is hard to grasp. It's amazing she escaped suicide. I'm so glad her life has a happy ending and I hope she finds her sister. Read more
Review:The book did arrive on time and in good condition. HOWEVER, it is not the book pictured! I am lucky my professor is allowing the book that was shipped to me to be used. It is a blue one and a totally different edition that the one in the picture, the one I thought I was buying. I would not buy from this seller again. Read more
Review:The Foxfire Project is momentious and if you notice you are missing one or three in the set, having loaned them, it's wise to replace these missing gems of mountain pioneering and lossed skills. Mighty fine reading next to the bed. Read more
