Great Information, a Little Incomplete.......2003-03-24

we bought this book at pictured rocks national lakeshore halfway through a 17 day adventure visiting all of the great lakes and i wished we had found it sooner. it was helpful with its details and little bits of trivia and information. for example we were not surprised to see the horrible cooling towers adjacent to indiana dunes nat'l lakeshore and it helped us understand the different mindset of the "yoopers" in michigan. i was disappointed that it did not contain more info on the canadian side of the great lakes and it made no mention of lake ontario and new york (our starting point), which seemed to short change the title of great lakes. (afterall, how could it miss one?) if you're aware of this and want some great info on a great region...i defnietly recommend it!

Fun reference.......2007-06-23

This is a great read for anyone interested in old farm equipment. The only problem was that I recognized too many of the pieces from my childhood and started realizing how old I am.

A Must Have Book on Agricultural Machinery & Mechanization.......1999-11-09

C. H. Wendel's Encyclopedia of American Farm Implements & Antiques is a first-rate work. The illustrations are exceptional, and the scope impressive. Wendel documents the machinery of manufacturing giants and the lesser-known manufacturers from the middle nineteenth century to the middle twentieth century. If you need to identify a machine or manufacturer Wendel's book ought to be your first source.

The collector in our family loves this book!.......1999-09-06

I bought this book as a gift for my father, who collects antique farm tools and tractors, has done his own restorations, and goes to antique shows all the time. I have no higher praise than this: when he settles in for the night, he gets in his favorite chair and opens that book. He may read it for hours, or browse a few pages, but it's his favorite reading material.

Most authoritative guide to old farming equipment EVER !.......1999-08-30

Once again, Charles Wendel shows that he is the undisputed master author of obscure antique farm implements and tractors.Wendel shows old sales brochure engravings of everything from hog oilers to corn shellers and hay loft pulleys. From feed grinders to hay tedders, and EVERYTHING in between.A MUST READ if you want a guide to antique farm implements from the 1800's through the 1950's.

I looked at this book and really liked it.......1999-08-15

It's hard to find info on old farm machinery. I especially liked the close-up illustrations of wooden windmills

Bonnie Rosser Krims wrote The Perfect Palette for those brave souls ready to try something that has daunted many an interior designer: painting the walls something besides white. Even though paint is one of the least expensive ways to change the look of a room, most people find those little cards of color chips too intimidating. Krims's 50 color plans are foolproof combinations based on the aesthetics of certain places and familiar objects, with very specific details to help you plan which palette to use with your furnishings. Each page describes a palette of three Benjamin Moore paint colors, though Krims provides a cross-reference to two other brands and urges readers not to feel limited to a particular brand. Accent and trim colors are suggested, and three adjectives are used to describe the mood of the palette. "Meet Me in Miami," a soft orange/blue/green palette, is "fun, easygoing, peaceful" and "works well in ranch houses, deck houses, and 1950s contemporary houses;" Krims suggests it specifically for brightening a basement or family room. "The Emerald Isle," a green/yellow/violet combination with accents of dark orange and white trim, is "sassy, lush, luminous," and will make darker wood furniture "look lovely." Color Palettes is both intensely practical and utterly lovely, and will almost certainly inspire some brave experimentation. No more boring white rooms!

not useful.......2007-09-21

Although the subtitle is "fifty inspired color plans for painting every room in your home", there are only 16 photos. The rest of the palettes have very simple inked and colored illustrations, for example, a cameo, a couple of flamingos, two pears, a bicyclist and other uninspiring subjects. This book is arranged by color combinations. Sounds good, but it isn't. For example, the "Iceland Poppy" palette has a poorly executed water color painting of light pink poppies surrounded by lime green against a white fence. It also shows three color swatches but the colors don't match the colors in the painting! This is how most of the palettes are illustrated.

The Perfect Palette.......2007-05-21

I have used this book with out current house and plan on using it in our next house. After years of renting we knew nothing in our house would be white or beige. The Perfect Palette gave us a start. It took the fear of color away. More over friends and family visiting us are commenting on how great the colors work together. I have several color books but this book has been the most practical and useful book. The key is to just use it.

Love this book!.......2006-08-05

I grew up drawing and painting on canvas, but when it comes to painting a wall...picking the right color for the room is so frustrating to me! This book really helped, and I had a lot of fun going through the different combinations. Bought a beautiful watercolor for my parents while they were on vacation, hung it on their white wall, and it just didn't look right. Went through Bonnie's book, and that weekend painted their living room, entry, and hallway in the "Lilac" palette. Perfect! Everyone just loved it! A friend was having issues redecorating. I looked at her main pieces of furniture, and through Bonnie's descriptions of what furnishings go with each palette, picked "Golden Apples" for her living/dining room, entry, and family room. It looked so good friend's thought she had a designer take over! Love this book! Gave it a 4 instead of 5 because I would like to see a few more neutral and deeper color combinations. But, what a helpful book!

STILL FIVE STARS.......2003-11-10

I'M A BIG FAN OF THIS BOOK. IT HAS HELPED ME A GREAT DEAL IN PAINTING AND DECORATING MY HOME. I AM EQUALLY THRILLED THAT MS. KRIMS CAME OUT WITH ANOTHER PERFECT PALETTE BOOK. I JUST ORDERED A COPY AND CAN'T WAIT TO POUR OVER THE PAGES.

For those with imaginations and lots of time on their hands!.......2003-06-28

There were not very many real-life applications in this book, which was very disappointing. The colors were more in the pastel range, and hardly any of the rooms shown contained a deep or bright color. If you are looking to introduce deep color into your home, skip this book and try Alice Westgate's "The Complete Color Directory". It's full of beautiful colors and even contains color swatches and how to's on using pigment for different effects.

Book Description

An affectionate tribute to some of Toronto's most beautiful hidden homes.

Some of the most charming homes in the best neighborhoods of today's modern cities once housed horse teams and carriages. Then ripe with the smells of leather, horse and hay, they are now among the most coveted urban dwellings. This book is a pictorial tour of 22 of Toronto's most attractive coach house homes, some lovingly preserved, others carefully restored, and most extensively renovated. Despite their dramatic interior-design differences, all share a distinctive historic allure.

As the twentieth century progressed, the magnificent coach houses were demolished or fell into disrepair. Because of their age and rarity, the surviving coach houses are highly prized and tenaciously protected by their owners and by many city historical boards across North America. This beautiful collection of essays and images pays homage to these secret homes.

I bought this item for my friend who is divorce and need help.......2007-05-16

I have read the excerpt on this book and I definitely think that this is THE book for my friend.

I Wish I'd Had This Twelve Years Ago..........2007-03-26

When my divorce was final 12 years ago, I was left to raise two sons. I felt hopeless and alone (although people reached out to me) and I certainly felt unable to raise two boys. My sons are teens now. "Raising Great Kids" has some of the wisest parenting insights I've found anywhere, for kids of any age but especially for parents of teens or pre-teens. Wow. I wish I'd had this book twelve years ago, but I'm glad I found it now.

ASIN: 0972871667

Book Description

As you read "A Parent's Guide to Raising Great Kids" by Dr. Ed Wimberly, you will no doubt notice that this book takes a somewhat different approach to parenting than many books that are on the market today. The primary purpose of this book is not to suggest ways we parents can persuade, coerce, bribe, or if all else fails þu force, our kids to be what we want them to be. Certainly, we want our kids to learn to be respectful of others, responsible, polite, ambitious, helpful around the house, and much more. Of course it is the desire and duty of any dedicated parent to do their best to help develop a healthy self- esteem in their kids, and to encourage them to grow up to be adults who have a sane and reasonable view of what they have to offer.

However, as an author and therapist, Dr. Wimberly believes that it is only as we look more closely at ourselves-as parents to our kids-that we will be more able and well equipped to ¡°design¡± the great, healthy, and responsible kids we want them to become. So what you will be encouraged to do here is to look at yourself and your role as parent to your kids. As you do, your self-assessment will likely help fine tune your actions and attitudes, and in turn, assist you in meeting the goal of raising great and healthy kids. The responsibility of raising great kids is an awesome task, but an exciting one, indeed!

Not a recipe, but a coaching guide.......2003-07-31

Dr. Wimberly hits the nail on the head with this great encouragement for parents. We believe it has already made a difference in how we view our job as parents with four children. Can't wait to have grandchildren and pass along this wisdom!
