The Best Novel on Politics Ever!Review Date: 2007-08-26
The Best EverReview Date: 2007-07-16
politics from a gimlet eyeReview Date: 2007-10-17
In the first novel, the governor has chosen a young legislator for an unaccustomed role in the spotlight: his life, like those of his cohorts, is a mess of alcohol and libertinism, but he is also struggling with his conscience to do the right thing. There are so many layers to what was really happening that it is impossible to explain, because the reader can only suspect what the governor is doing. The governor mixes the most intimate personal machinations, it appeared to me, with a legislative purpose and to depose (even destroy) a potential rival. It reminds me, of course, of LBJ, a politician without equal. One of the really interesting aspects is that the author describes many people just like GW Bush: priviledged, brash, debauched, and inadvertantly wondering what they should be doing. If you read this, you will understand GW Bush and his milieu much better - that is a sign of the timelessness of Bramer's achievement, truly a masterpiece.
The second novel is similar: the governor's enemies are defeated, while he stages and manipulates events to suit whatever his purposes are. It is at times brutal and sad, yet funny and even uplifting, particularly in the scenes of introspection, when the characters have flashes of insight and empathy. The plot, which is only a vehicle to expose cryptic motvations, is the governor attempting to get an appointed young senator to run for a true popular mandate - he is a complex and flawed character, whom the governor sponsors out of respect but also to keep him in his pocket. It is splendidly ambiguous, as is all politics. The third involves similar personal struggles and an ineviablle passing of power, again, very realistic and down to earth. Marriages are destroyed, while politics plays in, and the characters wallow in existential angst while working very hard and yet hardly understanding why. It is a unique combination of themes, a genuine work of literature.
One thing that really fascinated me was how similar this is to a Gore Vidal novel, a kind of comedy of the priviledged who inadvertently do politics while living their complicated lives. The political action is entirely off stage, but solved in their everyday actions and affairs and drunken parties. I have no doubt that Vidal carefullly studied the literary method that Bramer pioneered here, which resulted in his truly fine series of novels on American politics. Finally, tt really is where Bush came from, a reflection on the depth of Bramer's art, almost prescient in its intelligence and lack of facile scrutiny.
Warmly recommended as great art and a unique view into politics.

Moon Handbook: Washington StateReview Date: 2008-05-15
Excellent guide to an amazing areaReview Date: 2008-01-19
Great info in a bulky packageReview Date: 2007-06-28
The author makes some snarky comments toward a local Christian ministry - which seems pointless - and includes a great deal of information specifically geared toward homosexual travelers. I didn't realize that was a niche market, but evidently it is.
Regardless, the book is quite thorough, if opinionated. I prefer the "Hidden Washington" books for pointers on places off the tourist track.
Recommended.
Moon Handbooks are amazingReview Date: 2007-09-28
An upcoming trip to Seattle/San Juans is based on the information in the Washington book. The real beauty is that the book leads you to the most likely area to visit, gives references to hotels, etc., then you can complete your research by reviewing up-to-date information about that spot/hotel online. We chose Orcas island for 2 days before heading to Seattle and I do not expect to be disappointed.
The authors are even-handed and complete --- they are not elitists, reviewing only the high-end accomodations. They have a good sample of a broad range of places. They point out lesser known restaurants and scenic spots as well.
I have found their advice in the Oregon, Washington, Coastal California and New England books to be quite excellent.
I have purchased quite a few different travel books in the past, but Moon Handbooks are my travel book of choice.

Everyone Needs to Know How to Buy a HouseReview Date: 2008-02-28
This book breaks down the mortgage process step by step. Elements beyond just the mortgage payment like escrow and mortgage points are explained. The Mortgage Book doesn't just explain mortgages but explains the entire process of buying a house. The reader learns how what to look for when inspecting a house and how to determine what type of home is right for them.
When buying a house there are so many decisions to make. Several times throughout the Mortgage Book the author helps the reader make a decision by weighing the advantages and disadvantages of that choice. Should one buy a manufactured home or not? Should one use a bank or mortgage company? Should one get a fixed or adjustable loan? The reader isn't told what to do but just given more information in order to make an informed decision.
Even if one isn't buying a house right now, it's a good book. This is simply because everyone needs to at least know what the mortgage process is like. This is just good information that every adult should know. Also if a reader has less than perfect credit, tips are given on how to improve credit. So that when one is in the market to buy that first home he or she can be knowledgeable about what to expect.
Overall this is a great book for the first time home buyer. The language is simple and thorough explanations are given without bogging the reader down in too many unnecessary details. This book is a really good idea for someone in their twenties who may have just graduated college or newlyweds wanting to start a family. Even if you're not buying a house at the moment it's just good information to know.
Much more than mortgages - an essential homebuyers' bookReview Date: 2008-02-13
In fact, some of the introductory chapters, on considerations before taking the plunge are as valuable, if not more, than the more detailed banking and mortgage chapters.
The style of writing is very factual and clear, which makes it useful reading, but, at times, a little dull. However, it's good, relevant, information, and comprehensive, so it's only a minor irritant.
A better title - or sub-title - for the book might have been something along the lines of "So you want to buy a house? A step-by-step guide from decision making to mortgage." Actually, the book's title doesn't even come close to doing the book justice, it's a guide for every step of the home-buying process, and, as such, has to be regarded as a very useful - if not essential - book.
The information on every step of the process is top notch, and the tables and charts invaluable. This could easily be the homebuyers' Bible.
While not many institutions would necessarily want the customer to be totally informed about the entire process, it would be good if the first step in anyone buying a home would be the compulsory purchase of this book. It's that useful.
With the financial world and mortgages under scrutiny, it would be wonderful for all considering buying a home to save themselves a lot of potential problems - and a lot of money - by first investing in this book.
Everything You Need!!Review Date: 2008-02-11
There are worksheets to help you see where you are before you start the process. The information is good for you to read to help prepare you so that you are not taken advantage of.
If you already have a mortgage, it's a great tool to help you understand all the terms. The book even offers suggestions if you are unable to pay. It outlines what a reverse mortgage is without someone trying to sell you on something.
Expansive subjects and approaches make it a top recommendation.Review Date: 2008-05-09

Priceless InformationReview Date: 2008-03-06
This book completely broke down for me everything that "the other side" seems to already know.
I found it helpful to read about purchase agreements, home inspections, and other key points related to the actual selection and agreement on the details of the house.
Additionally I found the sections about the different types of mortgages and the full details about each type of mortgage completely explained in a way that can be understood by someone who is not in the mortgage business!
After reading the information in this book I feel so much more informed and confident about approaching the process of buying my second home.

Why Not Learn From the Mistakes of Other?
You Can't Afford To Make Them All Yourself by J.R. Parrish
www.parrishonline.com
J. R. Parrish went from high school, to milkman, to a Fortune 500 company's number-one salesman in America. Against the odds, the Silicon Valley commercial real estate firm he founded grew to be one of the two premier firms in that market. He retired at age fifty-five on the Big Island in Hawaii.In this easy-to-understand, power-packed book, J.R. reveals the lessons he was taught by his mentors, and those he learned on his own, about finance, business, marriage, career, school, friendships, dating, family, health, thinking, habits, and most importantly, how to deal effectively with others.
Reading this book gives you the opportunity to learn the best way to deal with many of life's most important situations before you have to experience them.
It is a constant life companion that you will refer to again and each chapter has a Lesson in a Nutshell summary of important points and A Few Profound Thought inspirational quotations for quick and easy review and reference.
I have donated a copy to my local library and have given away at least 10 copies to family and friends as gifts.

Books like this one help a person to stay focused on the way life really works. Near the end of the book, he sums this up by noting "self-esteem is truly a self fulfilling prophecy" (p. 197). This book could do a lot of good for a lot of people if its principles were applied.

It also was written for his children and other people of all ages. It talks about the wisdom of the ages and other life lessons and truths we do not learn in school about how life works and character education for kids, teachers and parents.
It is sure to be a classic that will enrich everyone's life and should be in every home.

THE ART OF SYNERGYReview Date: 2004-08-19
Read This Book!Review Date: 2004-06-23
The Davises are also co-authors of the seminal text "Sound System Engineering," nearing its third edition release and a technical "go to" resource for generations of audio professionals. ("Sound System Engineering" is available here on Amazon.)
Much of "If Bad Sound Were Fatal" expounds upon the non-technical side of what is shared by Syn-Aud-Con grads, and it offers fascinating anecdotes, projects, theories and communication. There is also a heavy dose of the history of the audio giants, many of whom the Davises knew/know personally during their 50-plus years (and still counting) in the industry.
Audio professionals: Want to understand how we find ourselves here? Want to understand what's come before and therefore, what's down the road? Want to read about two lives that are more well-lived - both inside and outside of the industry - than any fiction writer could possibly concoct?
All you have to do is read the book
If Bad Sound Were Fatal, Audio Would Be the Leading Cause ofReview Date: 2004-06-18
Don and Carolyn started their career in audio in 1951 with the "Golden Ear" hi-fi store. Don worked with Paul Klipsch and was Vice President of Marketing at Altec Lansing. He was co-inventor of 1/3 octave equalization which is the standard for sound system equalization today. They founded Synergetic Audio Concepts (Syn-Aud-Con) in1973 and over the years have taught thousands of people in the audio field. Through the years they met and worked with many of the audio greats of this century.
There is a chapter called "Don and Carolyn" which they tell about their experiences in watching the audio field grow. Of course any book written by Don and Carolyn Davis wouldn't be complete without stories about their many travels into Russia, Japan, Europe, Australia, and more, their pets, the joys of country living, firearms and, of course, humor. One of my favorite cartoons is of a man with a big smile on his face walking into the office of "Alfonso Construction" with a set of plans under his arm and saying "They took our low bid for that tower at Pisa".
"If Bad Sound Were Fatal, Audio Would Be the Leading Cause of Death" is a book that should be on the desk or in the bookcase of every person that is interested in audio. I highly recommend it.

A Must for anyone entering the teaching profession!Review Date: 2005-08-12
Mr. Kitchen spells out step by step everything you should do when certain things that WILL happen, happen. This is much more straightforward than the theoretical rhetoric that you are spooned in your methods courses.
If you are about to enter the teaching profession, or are still a bit shaky in your first few years, this is a MUST HAVE!

To me, the best thing about this book is its honest and analytical reflection of the highlights and lowlights of a tremendously productive teaching career from an author who is not too proud to admit his past mistakes yet not so humble as to hide the secrets to his powerful performance in the classroom. I am a better teacher for reading this book.
