Book Description

New York City is known for its towering skyscrapers, world-class theaters and museums, honking taxis, and bustling crowds. But it is so much more. It is a smoky jazz club in Harlem, an All Saints Day feast in Queens, an extra-innings baseball game in the Bronx, a thrill-seeker's dream in Brooklyn's Coney Island. Ever since the isle of Manhattan expanded its domain back in the 1890's this megalopolis of five boroughs has encompassed a surprising mélange of neighborhoods, cultures, styles, and outlooks.
In a stunning celebration of New York and its boroughs, renowned photographer Carol M. Highsmith captures the diversity of this sprawling city in spectacular full-color images. This pictorial souvenir presents the best of New York and its environs, including architectural landmarks like Manhattan's St. Patrick's Cathedral and the wedge-shaped Flatiron Building, bustling Times Square and the frenetic New York Stock Exchange; ethnic, eclectic, and fashionable neighborhoods throughout all five boroughs; wonderful parklands and botanical gardens; Yankee Stadium and the Bronx Zoo in the Bronx; the Steinway piano factory and the New York Hall of Science in Queens; the stately Brooklyn Academy of Music; and Staten Island's serene Snug Harbor.
A lively and fact-filled foreword and captions by award-winning writer Ted Landphair help paint the full picture of the undisputed capital of fashion, finance, publishing, performing arts, and more. New York City: The Five Boroughs, A Photographic Tour is a wonderful keepsake of a memorable visit, and the ideal gift for anyone who savors the unforgettable architecture, unsurpassed cultural offerings, and sensational parklands of an eclectic metropolis that is arguably the most fascinating city in the world.

"A Photographic Tour"........2004-04-03

I'm a native New Yorker and found much, within this book, to jog the memory. The photographs show the different neighborhoods, of which there are many, within the 5 boroughs as they were then and as they are today. One photo of particular interest, to me, is of the cottage, in Brooklyn, where I lived as a child.

Book Description

In this well-crafted memoir, a woman recounts her husband's battle with terminal brain cancer.

Customer Reviews:

Compelling.......2004-02-07

This book reaches well beyond connecting with those who have experienced a similar loss. It is a compelling story for everyone to read who wants to experience a full life. The emotions that the author feels while going through her process are unfiltered, and real beyond what is politically correct in these circumstances. It is as if I were living in her mind and heart -- as if the experience was my own. This is the only book I have read in one sitting in a long time -- I couldn't put it down!

Required Reading for Those Dealing with a Terminal Illness.......2004-01-30

An excellent memoir that is both refreshing and helpful for those people who are experiencing the death of a loved one from a terminal illness. There is no glossing over the author's feelings-they are raw, real, and significant. The beauty of the book is that it provides a person's real experience, not a theoretical experience. More importantly, it explains a person's grief, and the realization that people do survive the pain. This book is highly recommended.

A Nightmare's Humanity.......2002-06-04

I've just finished my second reading of "In Sickness & In Health," and wanted to express to the author, Gail Lynch, my sadness for the loss of such a wonderful partnership, and my appreciation for the forthrightness with which she shares such intimate and moving details of Bob's final struggle, and her own struggle, and the struggles of their families. Her straightforward narrative offers the reader familiar yet bizarre scenes in a way that lets the reader bring her own emotional life to the account. I can imagine that this book will help many readers find the humanity and sweetness in the nightmare.

I think writing this book must have taken a lot of courage. I look forward to sharing it with my colleagues.

One Woman's Story of Love, Loss and Healing.......2002-04-05

This is a book you can't put dowm until you've read the last page. The true story of a woman's journey with her beloved husband through the medical maze of trying to conquor brain concer. The aability of the quthor's strengh to head after this trauma is inspiring to us all.

This is a great book..There are wonderful color pictures and good directions. There are several quilts I would like to make. I would highly recommend this book for easy quilts to make.

Better than personal shopping. Excellent clean products, safely packed and delivered to my door. Will buy again.

Favorite.......2007-01-14

I think this is a great book, easy to use and plenty of directions. Only you imagination will hold you back. I have seen the cover design done in a number of different fabric selections and could not have picked the best. A got to have.

Just beautiful!!!.......2006-12-18

I bought this book last night and I want to do every quilt in it. I love the colors she uses, which helps me because I'm not good with color. I do have some ideas though for changes to the quilts and I will work them out on EQ6. There is a really wild one called "entwined" and it is perfect for a young man. There are quilts for us ladies, quilts for the young, quilts for men, all in one book. I'll be checking out her other quilt books!

Love this book!!!.......2006-08-15

I absolutely love this book! The quilts are so easy to make! I want to make almost every quilt in it, and if I wasn't still hand-quilting the first quilt I made out of this book, I'd have a lot more finished. I've looked at it so many times, I had it spiral-bound. You won't regret buying this book! BTW, I don't know why there aren't any voting buttons. Sorry.

Book Description

"Connection Parenting" is based on author Pam Leo's seven week parenting series, "Meeting the Needs of Children," that she has been teaching for over sixteen years. The premise is that a strong parent-child bond is the key to children's optimal human development and our most effective parenting tool. Connection Parenting is a proactive approach to parenting that supports parents and caregivers in creating and maintaining the strong bonds children need to thrive.

Excellent Parenting Ideas.......2007-09-10

I would highly recommend this book for the parent of any young child. It would be helpful to read it right after the birth of your child.

Excellent! Hits all the topics........2007-09-02

This book is excellent. It serves as a great intro the idea of connection parenting. Talks about "filling the emotional cup", listening with love, connecting through play, alternatives to saying don't, trouble with praise, decoding behavior issues, the idea of true parental discipline. There is even a nice chapter at the end about fill our own cup to ensure we have something to give. I really enjoyed Pam's writing style and even the font was good--it makes it easy to find stuff later for reference with the different subtitles. And, she doesn't just spend the book telling you what not to do and why. She gives you very concrete examples.

Example:
In her section about giving orders and control, she suggests
Instead of "Go brush your teeth."
Invitation: "Let's go brush our teeth."
Transistion information: "It's time for brushing our teeth."
And,
Instead of saying "good girl" or "good boy" which shows approval not encouragement, she says encourage by noticing, appreciating, and describing:
We say "You picked up your toys. Thank you for the help!"
Child hears: I am helpful.
We say "You swam all the way across the pool!"
Child hears: I am a good swimmer.

I feel like my next step is to read some of the books Pam recommends at the end of each chapter including, Playful Parenting, Unconditional Parenting--Moving from Rewards and Punishment to Love and Reason. I believe some of these will go into more detail on specific aspects of this book. But, if you are going to read just one parenting book, this should be it! It covers it all with just enough detail to explain and provide alternatives! Excellent!!

Parenting Cliff's Notes.......2007-08-04

I call this book "The Parenting Cliff's Notes" and I recommend it to anyone who will listen. Pam Leo has spent years working with children and reading books on parenting. She has distilled all that knowledge into an easy-to-read format in this book. This book is also a wonderful barometer through which to decided whether or not to utilize other parenting advice. This is the best of all the parenting books I've read.

A Wonderful Parenting Book.......2007-05-01

I read this book as a parent and as a clinical social worker. I think Ms. Leo did a fabulous job of offering us the insights, resources, and information we need to become more effective parents. Her notion of connection vs. confrontative parenting styles is eye opening and the book gives us the tools we need to implement these valuable changes in our parenting styles. I would strongly recommend this book to all parents and will be referring it to friends who do family therapy to use with their clients.

If you must have only one book, this is it........2007-03-26

I believe this is the book to get and give. It is simple yet powerful. Quick to read and you can begin fresh in your parenting right away. A great book to share with your parenting partners. I have read many books I consider very important to my own parenting journey, but this one is the most comprehensive (yet to-the-point). It refers to many other books you can read to follow up for more inspiration like Playful Parenting by L. Cohen. However, in a phone call with Ms. Leo, she indicated two other books that are new that didn't make it into Connection Parenting before it was printed. I got those books and love them, too. They are: ScreamFree Parenting by Runkel(she didn't agree with everything but thought it was overall a great book, and I do too); Raising Our Children Raising Ourselves by Naomi Aldort (fantastic book. Love the S.A.L.V.E. formula which was also something I put to work right away with my toddler.) Change your whole life by trying these 3 books, starting with Connection Parenting, and seeing how far the rabbit hole goes by undoing your own patterns of old behaviors. Anyone can parent more mindfully, more gently, and with more sensitivity to their child and build a relationship based on two-way respect.

Book Description

Don Smith, or Lelooska, (1933-1996) was well-known in the Pacific Northwest as a Native American artist and storyteller. Of "mixed-blood" Cherokee heritage, he was adopted as an adult by the prestigious Kwakiutl Sewid clan and had relationships with elders from a wide range of tribal backgrounds. Initially producing curio items for sale to tourists and regalia for Oregon Indians, he emerged in the late 1950s as one of a handful of artists who proved critical in the renaissance of Northwest Coast Indian art. He also developed into a supreme performer and educator, staging shows of dances, songs, and storytelling. During the peak years from the 1970s to the early 1990s, the family shows, with Lelooska as the centerpiece, attracted as many as 30,000 people annually.

In this book, historian and family friend Chris Friday shares and annotates interviews that he conducted with Lelooska between 1993 and 1996. In the process, he develops a portrait that is large enough to embrace the contradictory elements of Lelooska's life. What, he asks, is Native identity? What is "authenticity" in art? How are we to understand the concept of pan-Indianism? What are the politics of Indian tribal adoption? By engaging these questions and the contradictions that produce them, Friday honors Lelooska's complexity and constructs Lelooska's life as a prism for viewing the shifting and historically indeterminate nature of twentieth-century Indian identities.

Customer Reviews:

Thanks Chris!.......2003-11-05

Being Lelooska's grand-neice, my rating may be somewhat biased, but I would like to thank Chris for writing an excellent book on Uncle Don. It means so much to our family! :)
