The last escape is a spell binding real life story of a beautiful, intelligent and resourceful 20 something year old Israli woman who is enlisted in the Mossad to rescue Jewish familys trapped in prewar and wartime Europe. Telling the history of it with the horrors, the adventures, the success and failures and the love. It relates how that only one country did not have a restriction against Jews entering their country (not usa ). It is a 500 page book I did not want to put it down until it was finished. Even then I wanted more.

This is a really wonderful and enthralling story of the Jewish underground in pre-war and wartime Europe as attempts are made to rescue Jews from the impending Holocaust. Ms Aliav, a young Zionist Jew finds herself in the midst of adventures time and again. The story is very well written and truly inspirational for Jews, Christians and anyone with a heart. It is highly recommended.

Julio is an artist living in Phoenix and I met him at his gallery during a recnt Art Walk. He signed a copy of the book for me at no charge, and was great to speak with. I loved his book and he mentioned that he's starting on the second one soon! He even showed one of the paintings that starts off the book!

The debut novel of a brand new fantasy series, The Legends of Bearlandia: Book One Escape From Innocence is the captivating chronicle of Ronin, a child prince who suffers repeated nightmares and blackouts.

I became hooked on Story Waters books, "The Messiah Seed" and "You Are God, Get Over It!" within the past couple of months. I then purchased his phenomenal CD, "No Rules: A Rebellion of Love", which I listened to everyday for a week. The message within that recording, as well as Story's calming voice, freed me to relax and go within myself. It helped me to understand that I have a choice between not being myself by following all of the restrictive rules of society or being myself and choosing to enter into a brand new world of consciously creating my reality by choosing to allow myself to just "be".
When I saw the title to Story's latest CD, "The Lie of Ascension", I felt both intrigued and a bit fearful. What was this about? The idea of ascension has intrigued me over the years. I desired a deeper understanding of what ascension is all about and was not disappointed when I heard Story speak about it.
"The Lie of Ascension" is divided into three parts: 1. The Energy of Escape, 2. The Key to All Cages and 3. No Escape - As Above, So Below. Each part builds upon the previous one, creating a spiral of flowing ideas which are liberating and creative. I understand that Story's educational background is in Clinical Psychology, therefore I recognized the psychological process behind each part.
What really excites me about this double CD-set is that I no longer feel the need to ascend. Ascension always occured to me whenever I was not happy with life and wanted to escape. Ascension equalled escape to me instead of being a natural spiritual process. Story puts everything about ascension into a balanced perspective which focuses on the idea that the spiritual and physical are one and the same. There is no separation. Because I understand that I hold the key that unlocks my self-limiting cage and allows me to joyfully walk away instead of fearfully escaping, I feel happier about my life and the need to struggle is not part of my reality anymore. I am understanding more about living in the NOW and embracing all of my wonderful emotions and the freedom of releasing the past and not worrying about the future. Ascension, as an escape, is a lie when I fail to understand that I am responsible for everything in my life. How liberating it is to know that I create everything in my reality - As Above, So Below. As Story says in this remarkable recording, "Ascension is no escape; there is nothing to escape from. Here is spiritual. Here is now. Here is physical. Here is where everything happens. Wake up and enjoy it!"

The review title just about says it all. Not only did Jimmy James spend almost 5 years as a POW, but he escaped countless times. After being one of the "lucky" 23 recaptured from The Great Escape not to be murdered by the Nazis, he was sent to Sachsenhausen concentration camp, and he ESCAPED from there!!!
An amazing true story!

The author, Jimmy James, provides many lucid details dealing with his experiences before, during, and after the Great Escape. James discusses his experiences at Barth, Stalag Luft III, Szubin, and Sachsenhausen. (He later visited the site of Stalag Luft III in 2004, 60 years after the Great Escape. At that time, he also observed the forensic dig that amazingly unearthed remnants of the tunnel Dick). James provides tables at the end of the book which include various statistics on the three tunnels dug at the time of the Great Escape (tons of sand removed per tunnel and per interval of time, numbers of pieces of lumber used for shoring per tunnel, etc.).
James provides a summary of events that occurred on the night of the Great Escape itself. After he left tunnel Harry during the night of the Great Escape, James trekked to Tschiebsdorf (now Trzebow), took a train to Boberrohrsdorf (or Bober-Rohrsdorf; now Siedlecin), and then was caught just north of the German-Czech border. Most of his comrades were murdered by the Germans, in open violation of the Geneva Convention.
James' description of what went on in Sachsenhausen concentration camp is graphic. Unlike modern treatments that tend to emphasize the experiences of Jews, James provides a balanced account of the many different victims of the Germans and the unspeakable cruelties that they were forced to endure. James makes it clear that Poles and other Slavs, religious and political dissidents, etc., were treated every bit as bad as the Jews. Inmates of western European nationalities, by contrast, were treated considerably better. James mentions numerous details seldom encountered in English-language publications. These include the dressing up of some of the corpses of Sachsenhausen inmates in Polish army uniforms for a faked Polish provocatory "attack" on German territory (along the German-Polish border) used to justify the ensuing German conquest of Poland in September 1939, the murder of 17,000 Polish POWs at Sachsenhausen in March 1940, and the suicide of inmate Jakob Djugashvili (son of Joseph Stalin) following news of the Katyn massacre of Polish POWs (correctly blamed on the Soviets).

Meet Patty, she's a real doll

Review Date: 2005-08-11
This is a nice quick read for an adult, and if you've got a child who has nightmares easily, I suggest you quickly read it before turning it over to him or her. It's not particularly scary, but easily scared kids will disagree with me!
As far as Carole's concerned, nothing is as it should be - they are far from their "real" home, the one they'd shared with her father before the divorce, and they are moving in with Uncle Jake, but Uncle Jake is missing. From the moment they arrive, Carole finds the house a little spooky. The house has nothing on Perky Patty.
Perky Patty is a lifesized doll that resembles the daughter Jake lost years ago, the daughter who grew up with Carole's mother and after whom Carole was named. She also bears a striking and disturbing resemblance to Carole! Perky Patty begins to walk and talk on her own but will only talk to Carole. Is this real? Or is it Carole's mis-placed sorrow over her parents' divorce and the loss of her lifelong home? And what, if anything, does the doll have to do with Uncle Jake being missing?

Hello all. I just wanted to let the reader know that I am the girl on the cover of this book. When I was younger I usually chose a book by its cover...now that I'm older I realize that it is not its cover that should intrest you but possibly the short excerpt on the back cover that should grab your attention and make you want to read it. Now basically what I'm saying is that even though I'm on the cover that did not initially want to make me read the book it was what was on the back cover that had interested me so much to do so. The book was very enjoyable and easy to follow I would reccommend it to any child to read...and not just because I want to show myself off.
