Info-packed basic Boston overview.......2006-05-16
Sure, there are glossier books, more compact books, and niche books for budget and underground traveling in Boston. When you want to get down to basics and do some armchair planning, Boston for Dummies is a great resource. Could you get a lot of this info off the Internet? You bet. Pair this with something sexier like a Lonely Planet Guide, and you are all set, though.
The opening chapters follow a natural chronological progression through the steps of trip planning-picking the time of year for your trip, roughing out a budget, planning accommodations, and getting to Boston. The dining chapter is a so-so index of restaurants sorted by neighborhood, by cuisine, and by price. All the famous spots are represented, as well as some lesser-known restaurants, and everything is depicted on a large city map. Author Marie Morris then delves into the top sights of this historic American city, followed by specialized attractions for kids, teens, art lovers, sports fans, and those who prefer guided tours.
For those who want guidance but not a full guided tour, Morris provides dozens of sample trip outlines that range from shopping expeditions, to 3 day Boston and 5 day Boston trips, to Boston with kids, and a series of great day trips in the Boston area. My chief complaint about other Boston-area books is that they assume a knowledge of the outer boroughs and mention places which are really only practical for dedicated day trips, not as a part of the experience of Boston proper. Morris succeeds by listing attractions outside Boston along with advice about how to get there, get the maximum enjoyment out of your day trip, and how long to devote to travel time.
Nightlife is mentioned, but for anyone looking to party in Boston, seek out a more specialized guide book and make use of Internet services like Citysearch. There is plenty of basic information, but any party-hearty tourist is going to need more information, especially if staying more than a few nights.
Morris concludes her guidebook with something everyone is going to need after a few days in the Northeast-the top 10 free Boston-area attractions.
Fairly Accurate Tour Guide Book.......2005-06-29
This book is written where it helps novice and experienced travelers alike. Having never been to Boston before, I examined at least a dozen tour guide books before selecting this one. It offered more information in an easy to understand format than any of the others. Along with lots of maps, it also has phone numbers and website addresses of the numerous attractions that Beantown has to offer. While in Boston, I frequently referred back to this book, saving lots of time and frustration. Well worth the price.
Adequate General Overview.......2005-01-23
I was surprised to see other reviewers having such a strong dislike for this travel book, though I can see their points. I've been to Boston once before, and I'm not sure this book would make as much sense to someone who hasn't already been to beantown.
I found the hotel information to be the most helpful. And the book is sprinkled with many practical, locals tips.
The restaurant section was ok, but the recommendations didn't seem very diverse and (as one other reviewer pointed out) things aren't laid out by neighborhood unless you look at the one page index at the end of the chapter.
This book coupled with active internet searches works well. Many of my searches began from links found in the book.
Alternatives to this book that I can recommend are both the Frommer's 'Boston' or their 'Irreverent Guide'. Both are solid with good tips for the first time traveler.
Buy ANY other Book.......2004-05-05
Hard to use and poorly laid out. Doesn't list attractions and restaurants by neighborhood, so you are out and about but you can't find a recommended restaurant in the area. Very frustrating. This book is best used to hold the hotel door open while the bellman unloads your luggage. If you go to Boston, have fun!...but DON'T BUY THIS BOOK. Froemmer's does it better in their sleep.
Boston for Dummies: Just a starter.......2004-04-10
I bought this because I've read some books in the Dummies series. After finally figuring out where we wanted to stay in Boston (location/hotel), I realized that this is all this book is good for. Yes, it does include a lot of tourist information, but the layout of the book just makes it hard to read. Or uninteresting. I used it just for the location of stay and that's it. I'm going to buy Frommers book on Boston and use it during my trip since Frommers' book layout is much better and includes the same types of maps. I've used Frommers many times for different trips.
I think if you just need a starter book to get your trip going, then this is a good book to look at, but I wouldn't bring it along while you're on the trip. Maybe go visit your public library instead of buying it or try to find it used. And, if you're comfortable with the internet, you could just find out the information you need before going on your trip by using some of the travel sites available to get info and opinions.

Beautiful Boston Bulls.......2007-09-17
This is an excellent book for people who own Bostons or those who are interested in the breed. You will learn about the origins of this spirited little hybrid dog (Bostons are the result of crossing old English bulldogs with small white terriers) as well as how to train and care for your Boston throughout your pet's life.
Bostons are delightful, high spirited little dogs. Small and compact, they have bulldog faces and hardy, sturdy bodies. They are extremely intelligent as a breed and need a lot of one-on-one handling. Bostons are generally eager to please and make wonderful family pets.
It is important to know how to care for pregnant Bostons. Fortunately, this book has a good section on pregnant Boston bull care. More often than not, pregnant Bostons have to have their puppies delivered by C-section because Boston puppies have extremely large heads that would make for a difficult delivery. Feeding and making a place for the pregnant Boston is included.
This is an excellent book for anybody who owns or just plain loves a Boston bull.

Rembrandt (Erotic Sketchbook)
ASIN: 3829601891 |
Book Description
With his erotic nude studies Auguste Rodin completed the artistic step towards modernity during the last two decades of his life. To a greater extent than in his sculptural uvre he broke with art traditions in his pencil drawings, watercolors and drawings combined with scissor cuts, establishing his total independence of prevalent beauty ideals and morals. The intimate character is born out by the expeditious stroke, comparable to instantaneous snapshots, and the liberality of the motifs. Contemporaries such as Rilke and Paul Klee immediately recognized the revolutionary artistic quality of the drawings. The price Harry Graf Kessler had to pay for exhibiting them in Weimar 1906 was high, however: he was dismissed from his position as head of the Grand-Ducal museum. This book, a softcover reprint of our 1995 classic, contains 105 watercolors and scissor cuts collected from museums and private collections from all over the world, including some "scandal" drawings from Weimar.
Customer Reviews:
Never too much.......2007-06-20
"I have been accused of thinking about women too much ... But what could be more beautiful than thinking about women?" - Auguste Rodin
Rodin is a striking example of an artist who achieved recognition in his own lifetime. That included financial independence, which gave him the freedom to explore directions for which patronage would have been hard to find. In fact, the display of some images in this series is said to have cost the director of the Grand-Ducal Museum his job.
It's easy to think of Rodin's masterworks in statuary as complete command of form. Whatever Rodin thought of them, it wasn't enough. His later life produced "one-minute drawings" like these by the thousands. He was looking for something, possibly within himself, that he never found words to articulate wholly. One proposal holds that he wanted to capture the dimension of time, the frozen moment, that eluded stone and bronze.
Perhaps he succeeded. Beyond that, he also succeeded in collecting a wonderful catalog of female figure - not just figure, but dynamic and exciting figure. The excitement is more than just intellectual. It goes well towards the carnal but stops short of vulgarity, at least to a modern eye. These models presented not just their forms but their arousal, of themselves and of their same-sex partners. Rodin's genius captured their passion and his own, stripped of any critical sentiment.
This book will work well to complement a library that already represents Rodin's better-known works. These watercolor drawings tend toward a sameness of color, contrast, and style that might wear on some viewers' patience. I guess it's not for everyone. If you've already befriended Rodin's work, though, this is an enjoyable way to deepen your relationship.

The full color reproductions are superbly presented.......2002-09-06
Images Of Desire: Erotic Watercolors And Cut-Outs showcases the erotic watercolor illustrations and cut-out artwork by Auguste Rodin, the famed French artist most commonly known through his sculptures. A brief introduction by Anne-Marie Bonnet adds pensive thought on these minimalist, somewhat abstract yet undeniably sensual and sexual artworks celebrating pleasure and love. Intense imagery evokes passion out of the simplest lines. The full color reproductions are superbly presented and make Images Of Desire a welcome and highly recommended addition to personal, academic, and community library Art History and Art Appreciation reference collections.

Wonderful reference for the Do It Yourselfer.......2006-04-23
Produced by MiracleGro, the gardener's friend, this how-to book on building your own water garden and backyard pond or installing your own home fountain is fabulous! Despite the book's small size, nothing is missed, from design tips (with beautifully photographed illustrations) to selecting equipment and installation.
Learn how to build your own backyard oasis, select and add water plants, select and care for pond fish in easy, user-friendly terms. Pond/stream/waterfall construction using both preformed ponds and liners is covered. Another great feature is that the book is waterproof and can be taken outdoors to use as a reference while you work. The pages are heavy and won't blow in the wind. It's been invaluable to us as we build our new pond and patio. Highly recommend it as anyone, no matter how inexperienced, can learn to do the job.

Book Description
This book examines how Johannes Buxtorf's works helped to transform seventeenth-century Hebrew studies from the hobby of a few experts into a recognized academic discipline. The first two chapters examine Buxtorf's career as a professor of Hebrew and as an editor and censor of Jewish books in Basel. Successive chapters analyze his anti-Jewish polemical books, grammars and lexicons, and manuals for Hebrew composition and literature, including the first bibliography devoted to Jewish books. The final chapters treat his work in biblical studies, examining his contribution to Targum and Massorah studies, and his position on the age and doctrinal authority of the Hebrew vowel points. The chapters on anti-Jewish polemics and the vowel points will interest Jewish historians and Church historians. This work has been awarded the 1994 Frank S. and Elizabeth D. Brewer Prize Essay of the American Society of Church History.

Customer Reviews:
Black Spain as Beauty.......1997-06-14
The pictures of Cristina Garcia Rodero capture the corners of rural or folcloric Spain with such gripping elocuence it is almost painful.With a hint of surrealism and a sense for the right moment to capture her subjects, she reveals the hidden Spain in all its darkness and grace. The subject is impressive but it takes an artist to peel the surface and go further and that is what Cristina has done
