Not Very Dependable.......2007-10-06
I bought this book to help plan a month and a half long trip to New Zealand and Australia staying mostly in hostels. I cannot recommend this book for a reliable source of information for hostels or restaurants. Most restaurants I have tried to find no longer exist. The hostel and attraction prices are wrong (of course these are subject to change), however, the recommended hostels have been hit or miss. There have been some good ones as recommended by the book (Sydney Central YHA, Old Countryhouse in Christchurch, NZ) but there have been some disgustingly unclean (Bondi Beach YHA) and unlivable (Global Palace) recommended highly by this book. I think that a better source of information would be customer reviews on the internet.
A great choice.......2007-01-03
It's a great book. It is very complete and very accurate, most of the times.
I didn't gave it 5 stars because sometimes it isn't very easy to find the information.
I recommend it.
Usefull stuff in, out with the rest..........2006-05-12
I bought this book 2 months ago while planing a trip to OZ & NZ later on this year.
It is well orgenized (the TOC is region based) and drills down in each area to its unique and famous places.
The book has just the right quantity of information regarding each item with a veriety of maps and side trip activities.
It contains a lot of usefull data about both countries and you can defenetly see the it was written by backpackers.
Reading the book has contributed me a lot in the planing fase of the trip, hopefully i'll be able to compliment it more after i'll return.
Book Description
In a lively question and answer format, readers are taken behind the locked doors of the Philadelphia State House during the dramatic Constitutional Convention.

Constitution Review.......2005-10-17
This was a great book. It provided both facts and interesting tibits about the founders. I used it as a resource in my 5th grade inclusion social studies class and they found it both useful and informative.
Good resource!.......2000-03-24
"They Signed the Constitution" by Elizabeth Levy has become an excellent resource for me to use in the classroom. I teach 7th grade social studies, and we spend 1 quarter of the year on government. My colleague and I have used most of this book for the past 3 years to supplement the rest of the material we use. We have also created a worksheet to be used with it. Students take turns reading aloud in class from this book. They find it easy to read and easy to understand, definitely not the dry textbook we're used to reading! I recommend this book for elementary and junior high teachers teaching government, as well as students looking for an easy way to understand part of our early American history.

Book Description
Once the favored canine of Egyptian nobles before the time of Christ, the Pharaoh Hound, known as Kelb Tal-Fenek in its native Malta, continues to fascinate modern-day dog lovers. Prized for his elegant sighthound build and his rich tan coloration, this handsome and durable working dog excels as a devoted companion and trusted watchdog. A rare breed around the world, the ever-blushing Pharaoh Hound enjoys a growing fancy in America, making this Special Rare-Breed Edition a much-needed resource for all admirers of this breed.
Written by hound-breed authority, Juliette Cunliffe, this colorful and comprehensive volume discusses the Pharaoh's history in Egypt, Malta and beyond, the breed's unique characteristics and personality and breed standard. The new owner will welcome the author's insightful advice about training this sensitive and intelligent breed as well guidance on puppy selection and care, house-training and health care. In addition to an authoritative text, written with both the pet owner and breed fancier in mind, this book presents over 135 color photographs that prove to be as attractive as they are informative.
Whether protecting his family, entertaining the children or chasing a lure in a coursing event, the Pharaoh Hound promises a lifetime of joy for the right family.
Customer Reviews:
best book about pharaoh hounds so far..........2006-03-14
I think this book is quite excellent...It contains very much usefull basic information about puppy + training. There`s a little bit about history and health care also. I was very pleased about the information concerning pharaoh hound`s personality but I had unfortunately read most of the facts previously from webpages on Internet. So this is not very comprehensive book and I don`t agree with the writer`s opinion about the importance of crate training. I think the book`s puppy, training and behaviour sections are the best!

Excellent.......2000-05-17
This is the only book that completely covers all aspects of Pharaoh Hound ownership, and all of the breeds traits. The book is very well written and illustrated, has all the AKC standards needed to study specimens. A review of the ancient history of the breed. Facinating reading and a must for anyone contemplating Pharaoh hound ownership.
The definitive book regarding Pharaoh hounds.......1999-10-28
This book is for anyone who is considering ownership of a Pharaoh hound, or who already knows and loves the breed. It is comprehensive and fascinating.
excellent overview of the breed, great reference book.......1999-09-05
This is the only book on the Breed that covers all aspects of the breed in detail, and can prepare a future owner of the Breed for what to expect from a Pharaoh Hound. It is well written and has pictures of the breed and a complete breed standard for AKC confirmation.
Product Description
A deluxe signed edition limited to only 200 copies, this is copy #101. SIGNED BY BOTH AUTHORS . An interesting examination of dogs in Ancient Egypt with modern discussion.
Customer Reviews:
Not what I expected.......2000-03-06
This book is a compilation of what appears to be bad photocopies of photographs of the dogs. I could make out most of the pictures, but some of them are really bad. I regret paying as much for this book as I did, but as a Pharaoh Hound enthusiast, I'm glad I have it if nothing else but for it's value as a reference. Buy the books by Rita Sacks & Pauline Block and Joyce Martin & Randall Bullard instead!

Great compact reference for an antiques dealer.......2007-03-23
This book was recommended to me by a dealer specializing in depression glass at a glass show, and I was not disappointed. Clear color photographs with company names, dates, color range, and prices listed in a small size book that is easy to tote around. My favorite part is the section on reproductions in the back of the book, not found in some of the other glass books I own! This is the second copy I have purchased (it comes out every two years) just to keep abreast of the reproductions, since it is sold at such a great price!
Excellent inside and out.......2007-03-09
This book came with much needed information. Definitely great for identification purposes of almost all there is was out there!
Excellent portable reference book!.......2003-05-23
This book has almost 200 different patterns of depression glass and price lists for them. The pictures are excellent and the size makes it perfect for throwing in a bag or backpack while browsing at flea markets or yard sales. The author, Gene Florence does refer to another of his books which is larger and more in depth if you need more info, but this is my first book on depression glass and I find it has what I need at this point. Of special note is his section on reproductions and how to spot them - very helpful. I highly recommend this book.
Customer Reviews:
The essential handbook for depression glass shopping trips!.......1997-08-12
If you are interested in collecting depression glass or glass from the 40s, 50s and 60s, this is the guide you must own. Gene Florence is the most respected author in the field and has the book sales to prove it. The illustrations are great and the text is very basic -- it only gives you pricing information.
If you are beginner or are considering collecting depression/40s,50s,60s glass, you would do well to check out Florence's large hardbound books covering those topics. This pocket reference does not give you the background information you would need.
Great book
Book Description
This popular guide has been completely revised. Many of the photos have been reshot to improve the quality and add new finds. These colour photos show great detail, and the listings of the patterns and their available pieces make identification simple.

Many people love the idea of a house full of fresh-cut flowers, but sadly, most have no idea how to select, care for, and arrange flowers, much less grow them. Flowers A to Z is a superb guide for anyone who enjoys flowers and wants to celebrate them in the home or garden. Author Cecelia Heffernan, a floral designer by trade, provides a wealth of information on how to cut, purchase, arrange, care for, and grow all types of flowers.
The book is divided into sections covering everything leading up to a beautiful flower arrangement sitting on your dining room table. It begins with a chapter on hardware, which details all the basic tools--from floral shears to floral wire and tape--that you'll need for cutting and arranging flowers, as well as advice on choosing and caring for vases and other containers. The "Handling Flowers" chapter explains the proper way to cut, condition, and care for flowers to ensure the most attractive and long-lasting arrangements. The author sprinkles valuable tidbits of advice throughout the book. She suggests, for instance, that it is better to use branches or thick foliage as arranging aids instead of floral foam, chicken wire, or other artificial aids, as those can shorten the vase life of flowers significantly. This section concludes with a concise and informative guide to growing flowers in your home garden.
The final section, which makes up the bulk of the book, is an alphabetically arranged guide to flowers from agapanthus to zinnia. Each flower is depicted in a gorgeous full-page photograph, while smaller images show the flowers in different stages of development, illustrating the difference between fresh and older flowers. The informative text is written in a handy reference style, detailing the specifics of each flower: its scientific name, available colors, scent, how long the blooms will last after being cut, relative cost, and other useful information.
The gorgeous photographs, accessible text, and handy cross-referencing will surely inspire many readers to fill their homes and gardens with blossoms. --Robin Donovan
Book Description
Here is the ultimate guide for anyone who enjoys flowers. Flowers A to Z provides a wealth of advice on buying plants and cut flowers, growing them, cutting them in your garden, caring for them, and arranging them. Arranged alphabetically from Agapanthus to Zinnia, the book features magnificent full-page photographs of each flower, along with information on the flower's names and varieties; available colors; scent; characteristics of freshness; and relative cost. A wonderful combination of beauty and practicality, this book is essential for any flower lover.

Great Service.......2006-02-25
Even though there was a delay in shipment, I was very satisfied with the price and the condition the book was in. I definately would purchase again from amazon.com.
Cindy
I use this book all the time!.......2001-10-05
This book is a great resource for anyone with a cutting garden, a love of flowers, or a romantic husband. It's full of great tips for all different types of flowers and has allowed me to increase the longevity of the bouquets I receive.
I liked it so much that I bought one for mother's day.
The only thing I didn't like about this book is that it shows flowers being cut in air when they should always be cut underwater!
Simply Stunning.......2001-08-08
Not only is this book packed with the most gorgeous photographs, but also it's also full of practical advice. As the title suggests, it is arranged in alphabetical order so that looking for the flower you are after is quick and easy. Each flower is presented with a double page spread, and includes tips on buying, growing, arranging and cutting. It's an extremely useful reference with information on important flower-related problems such as how to make each flower last longer in the vase, what's poisonous, etc. it even gives you the meaning of flower names. Even if you're not into the practical side of arranging flowers, this book is equally valuable as a stunning coffee table book.
Great For Your Reference Library or Your Coffee Table.......2001-07-08
"Flowers A to Z" is a wonderful resource that is definitely needed. Essentially it is a dictionary of flowers, containing information about names, colors, vase life, how to tell freshness, availability, designing tips and more!! But what a dictionary!!!! It is a very large and visually stunning book, lavishly illustrated with beautiful photographs. "Flowers A to Z" provides very practical information about floral product in a format that elevates the content to an art book! Pros and hobbyists alike will appreciate it for both its content and presentation. "Flowers A to Z" would be equally appropriate in your reference library or on your coffee table.
Finally..A fabulous guide for cut flowers.......2001-03-29
For anyone who enjoys flowers, this book is a must! Full of artfully done full-page color photos, it contains a wealth of information on cut flowers. What I really liked was the types of flowers the author choose to include, hydrangea, fritillaria, peonies as well as many other unique varieties. Very upscale and cutting edge, this is not your run of the mill book on daisies. Each flower contains 2 full pages and includes growing and arranging tips, as well as care and handling. An indispensable reference.

Book Description
The Catholic Roots of the Protestant Gospel is concerned with anti-Catholic bias in Protestantism. It wishes to show that the special concepts of salvation in Protestantism actually arose from Catholic ideas and that these same concepts became distorted or one-sided as Protestantism sought to negate their orthodox Catholic opponents. Among the doctrines discussed are included the following: justification by faith, assurance of salvation, imputation of righteousness, covenant theology, penal substitution, limited atonement, and supralapsarianism. The work is filled with historical analysis, theological insights, and ecumenical exhortations. The historian will find a thorough analysis of primary and secondary sources of the Reformation. The theologian will be challenged with fresh approaches to traditional doctrines. The ecumenist will be heartened by its spirit and analysis of subjects that suffer too often from anti-Catholic bias.

Something Well Worth Reading.......2000-10-01
I found Mr. Smith's memoirs insightful and interesting. A true icon among those who mastered life in both the public and private sectors, Mr. Smith left a legacy of character, pragmatic behavior and reconciliation with the apparent facts surrounding race relations in our country. Had I to attempt what he did at the time it was done, I am not certain that I could have performed as admirably as he did. It is a story that many should know.
