The ultimate coffee table book on the Silver State
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 0 total.
Review Date: 2008-11-26
Following the success of "America 24/7," the publishers have released a digital photography book of all fifty states. While all of the titles in the series are beautiful, Nevada's is especially stunning. First off, the book is physically large (13 x 10.5), so the images have additional impact. While the natural environment is depicted, the book's focus is people. From weddings and school children to ranchers and Elvis impersonators, the book dramatically depicts what visitors and residents do in the state. From the Star Trek Experience to the Pyramid Lake Paiute Reservation, the book shows the diverse faces of Nevada. A balance of attention is given to both rural and urban places. "Nevada 24/7" is organized thematically as it explores dynamics such as recreation, economics and family life. Imagery is the focus as text is limited to descriptions of the photos. Given the de-emphasis of the written word, most readers will finish the book in about a half an hour. While being a self-described composite of amateur and professional images, the end result clearly favors the pro shots. It seems a bit like the premise may have been a gimmick to generate enthusiasm for the series. As with "Dogs 24/7" and "Cats 24/7," this is a tiny tragedy since the professional shots tend to be the most interesting. The most conservative of parents may object to some of the content. As would be expected, a couple of pages feature brothels. Also, there's a photo that shows topless bikers. The introduction is written by John L. Smith. As a summary of the state, it is the single most succinct yet poetic summary that I've come across. As an upbeat visual primer and celebration of the Silver State, "Nevada 24/7" is spectacular.

Nevada Captive is a highly entertaining book. The sparks fly between Caley and Jake all the way through the book. He is the Marshall come to clean up the town and she is the spitfire who steals his heart. She is fiesty, headstrong and a bit too foul mouthed. She is very defiant of him and he finally spanks her. However, she continues to spit fire at him at every turn. A fast paced read and one I highly recommend.

STRANGE LADY BUT GREAT STORY
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 0 total.
Review Date: 2003-07-11
Wildowed Lucy Donovan is loaded with cash. [good payment for a rotten marriage].

Rusty Sheffield needs money to save his ranch. He is a lawyer by trade but loves ranching. Through the misfortune of his older brothers, Tom and Landan being killed he inherits the ranch and all of its debts.

Lucy's mother had married Rusty's father for all of six months, fifteen years ago. Lucy had dreams of returning to the ranch where she had spent six of the happiest months of her life. She envisioned sharing the tranquility of the ranch with others, a dude ranch no less.

Rusty was willing to work all hours to get the money to pay Lucy back and cancel their deal. No dudes, no way!

It was wonderful to watch the growth, emotionally and mentally of Lucy, especially after she was coirced into taking care of Tom's daughter, little Cricket.

How these two people, who couldn't seem to communicate, finally managed to fall in love and understand each other made for a really great story.

Highly Recommended -- with no reservations - truly an enjoyable story.

Effective tool for Law Officers
Helpful Votes: 1 out of 1 total.
Review Date: 1999-11-27
Prior to my discovery of this book in 1994, I like most Law Officers were relegated to carrying cumbersome two volume hard back editions for reference. The Nevada Criminal and Traffic Law Manual has changed that. This book is extremely easy to carry in a brief case on duty. If you have access to a laptop, the CD rom version makes this a quick way to access all of the important statutes. The soft cover book has a somewhat less than handy index, but is workable once you become accustomed to it. The CD version has an excellent search engine with almost a "soundex" type function. If you are a Law Officer and this is available for your state, get it!

NEVADA FLAME

Lush, golden-haired Laura Mills began a flight for her life the night she was accused of killing the sun of a powerful banker.

But after the hired gun captured her, he thought it a real shame to take such a gorgeous creature into custody, so instead he took her into his powerful embrace...

I have seldom encountered a book with as much excitement. This can be a wonderful addition to any reader's library. Seldom has an author been able to write with such clarity and verve. Once you start reading, you will not put this book down.

As a three going on four year resdient of the Silver State, I highly recommend this book for even short term visitors who want to see something more than the Vegas strip. There's more to Nevada than casinos - beautiful desert vistas and some really offbeat places, like Area 51, are a welcome break from the neon.

This is an excellent wildlife guide. Beautiful pictures, great maps, easy to follow directions to get to the viewing areas and easy to read text. This is currently my 6 year old son's favorite book (he reads above his grade level) and he is requesting other books in this series. He has learned a lot about the different animals that live in our home state and recognizes some of the places they list to view the animals.

of how beautiful Red Rock Canyon is. If you visit Las Vegas, you have to visit Red Rock Canyon. As an extra bonus, take this book with you for the photos and the history and background of this breath taking area.
