Review:This edition of 'The Idiot' is really nice, very well designed and bound and for that it should get more than the three stars I gave it, but I have to admit that I'm really not liking the story. Since I'm over halfway through it I'm going to ride it out, but uggg I can't wait to finish it so I can move on to something else. Read more

Review:This is classic Twain. It is hilarious. If you want some entertaining reading, this is a great choice for a medium length introduction to Mark Twain. The "negro dialect" is easy to read once you get the hang of it. You do need to get past the use of the "n word" though as in many of the writings from that period. The almanac quotes keep you waiting for the next ones. Read more

Review:I had been deterred from the Hornblower series because it came out in the 1950s and 1960s and, frankly, because of the cheesy name. I was totally wrong. Hornblower is the most complex character created for the age of sail, the descriptions are mor accurate than those in other series, the style of writing is much better and the plots much more credible. If you want to go on a voyage in the great age of sail, you couldn't find a better captain than Hornblower. Read more

Review:If you love literature, this is a fantastic work. I also read in during a trip to India. The trip gave context to the novel and the novel context to the locations I was visiting. That's honestly the best way to explore a new country. Read more

Review:Upton Sinclair at his best. The story of an accidental "secret agent" and the traps he falls into. The innocent victims this poor man takes with him is another example of the tyranny of the Fascist regimes Sinclair despises. It is an excellent example of this man's skills, never failing to keep the reader guessing as to where the grim tale will lead. If you like Sinclair with "The Jungle" and "King Coal", you will enjoy this one, too. Read more

Review:We have two of the characters isolated for an extended time in a lush wilderness. We have a young single rich Morman women she cares for Gentiles while fending off unwanted advances from the elders in the Mormon church these elders wear guns and kidnape babies. It all sounded a bit much for a cowboy yarn. So I read on in awe.
The other remarkable thing about the book is its attitude toward the Mormon religion, Gee I wonder if they really were that horrible? What on earth would currant day mor... Read more
