Review:Very well written and hard hitting. It is a story that everyone should read as dictators like the murderous Franco can be stopped early on before something horrific, like the Spanish Civil War, happens. Read more

Review:All the five star reviews must've been written by the author's friends. The book was somewhat interesting but not very funny and too annoying with the author's corny sense of humor and "just between us"approach to writing. Read more

Review:I have been convinced for some time that Darwin’s theory is highly flawed. In fact, it is clear that even many biologists, as well as other evolutionary “scientists” know full well the problems with the theory. However, they view Darwinian evolution as providing the scientific foundation for their materialistic beliefs. For this reason, most biologists aggressively defend the theory even while they desperately look for a naturalistic alternative. Author Tom Wolfe sees Darwinian evolution for wha... Read more

In what is a novel approach to the history of the Revolution, Simon Schama devotes almost half of his work to a description of the Ancien Regime, including a very vivid glimpse into the lives of the Peers of the kingdom. By doing this his desciption... Read more

Review:Bonhoeffer is detailed and analytical in his observations regarding daily life in a close-knit Christian commmunity. I found this book to be highly thought-provoking and practical. He covers a lot of ground, and I found many of his thoughts to ring true with my own experiences. His discourse is firmly anchored in the Word, with frequent scripture citations to validate and expand the thoughts in his writing. Read more

Review:This book proved to be well researched. Full of details on the complicated and repetitious fables that make up the numerous tales of the various religious tomes. I was pleased to discover that much of what held as suspect was, in fact, not true. This should be required of all persons entering their adolescent years to offset the religious tripe that was foisted upon when they were children. Read more
