Buffalo Books

Explores the war experiences of two adolescent boys on opposing sides of the Vietnamese conflict. The novel suggests that embracing our oneness with the natural world is the key to overcoming our societal alienations and ideological differences.
Buffalo Boy and Geronimo is about the brutality of war, the torments of adolescence and the senselessness of environmental terrorism. It is also a tale of love, growth, spiritual rebirth and hope.
The writing is almost poetical and is transfused with Janko's pantheistic philosophy. A wonderful piece of literature which champions the dignity of animals, the humanity of our enemies and the preciousness of our environment. One of the most sensitive books written on the Vietnam war...please read it and pass it on.

Buffalo Boy and Geronimo is written from the heart of one who lived through, and understood, the terror of war and the beauty of survival. Janko brings a deeper understanding to the conflict of war by allowing us to enter the interior worlds of its victims and its survivors. The writing is very descriptive, so much so that I dreamt myself of being in trenches and felt insects crawling on my skin during the time I was reading the book. For those who remember Vietnam, this book will help them to understand more deeply what happened, for those too young to remember, this book will remind them that war is meant for one thing - destruction - and it is usually the innocent that are caught in the middle, whether they be in uniform or not.

This book was moving and haunting. I would recommend it to anyone who lived through the Viet Nam era - and anyone born after.

Though about what may seem to many like a long-ago conflict this is a timely reminder of the human toll of war. It lets us inside both sides of the conflict where they really live - in their own minds and hearts... Ordinary people caught up in extradinary destruction and responding with extroadinary compassion and humanity. It is a lesson we all can use today as we repeat history once more... Highly recommended.

I read James Janko's powerfully gentle and inspiring book "Buffalo Boy and Geronimo" straight through without stopping, except to eat and relieve. Janko brought me into village life. Aware of my senses, I was living in a world of smell and touch, of reverence and spirituality, of survival and belief. In the very beginning, we learn that the Vietnamese call the Vietnam War the American War, and Janko presents a world almost unfathomable in what the US does to this country, Vietnam, and then, Cambodia, and yet, it is not black and white. We are there with the fears of the Americans. They, too, are caught in a trap. And what sustains those who are sustained? The earth, the animals, the plants. Janko is a poet, a spiritual, mystical sage who carries us along in believing and trusting. In this book, I learned what it is like to live in a Vietnamese village, and I learned the power of the individual, the group, the tribe, the village in its need to survive. I learned about honoring ancestors, and I learned it at the deepest levels. Janko brings us into a tribe, a tribe of humanity that includes all nature. This is a masterful book, a must-read book, a book to change your life.

The illustrations are a big hit with children. They love to find the hidden nuances like "the cat throwing up in the hall." It's a fun one to read.

This imaginative, unique children's book is filled with whimsical, delightful characters. It offers all the reasons why a Buffalo would make the ideal pet for a family who wants only the best. Read this and see how a Bison can add new dimensions to your life!!!!! A Buffalo In The Mall is fun reading for all ages, 1 to 101

A wonderful book for young and old alike! An amusing storyline with added humor in the pictures. Read first for the content of the story, then look closely for the subtle humor in the illustrations

This is a charming fantasy, illustrated with immagination and whimsay that catches the eye and tickles the fancy of both children and adults. It is a must for the library of any child. Great for the classroom!

I dare anyone to put this gem of a book down...

It reminded me of Steinbeck in its efficient ability to weave a complex and rich story full of vivid atmosphere out of so few words. A clever mix of genres too - a modern, original story with shadings of the CSI procedural, the murder mystery, and the spaghetti western. That it also manages to include a believable and satisfying love story makes me wonder if it's already being made into a movie. If so, I can't wait.

Quite simply it's a great story told with fascinating characters that leaves you begging for more. And I'm pretty sure that's all I ask for when it's time to curl up with a good book.

Buffalo nicle, turned out to be a very enjoyable read.
the setting is in AZ and the writer captures the residents down to the tee.
the Homicide detective in this book is very beleivable.
I recieved this book at noon and I did not put it down until evening meal, completed in at bed time. great book.
this is the same author whom wrote BOATSWAINSMATE, so if you enjoyed that book, you will, really enjoy this one.

Pat Johnston has created a wonderful crime novel that takes place in the southwest and blended the crime to one of the finest coins ever minted that honers our old southwest traditions: "The Buffalo Nickel".Adding in bits of history and interesting characters in his book that takes place in Arizona, makes this a great "who-dunnit" read! I'll be looking for more of Pat Johnston's work!!!Harry Moore, Oregon

I really enjoyed this mystery. It reflects the small towns in Arizona and frankly, ended up getting so into the characters and the plot that I finished it in one night. Definitely worth a read.

As the author, I am biased, but can't help but be enthusiastic about the story. Set in Arizona, I tried to convey the beauty and vastness of the desert in my descriptive passages. The novel moves across the landscape describing the natural features and historical highlights of the region, all in the quest to solve a viscous murder and bring a dangerous killer to justice.
The buffalo nickel, found near the unidentified body by the highway, is a vital clue.
The buffalo nickels were produced from 1913 until 1938 and were considered one of the most distinctive American coins ever minted.
This book should keep you on your toes and turning the pages. "I read it in one night..." a reader recently told me.

Intriguing, compelling story line that brought out many of the racial silences as well as the heartfelt emotions of a man finding himself torn between his country & his God given emotions on the war front. Terrific plot with twists that will surprise you and bring you into the current decade with the fall out, of the Vietnam war. Highly reccommend this book to anyone who enjoys history mixed with fictitious literature.

When I first started reading this book I felt as though I was in for something geared toward Vietnam Vets or possibly toward just people from that era. I was pleasantly surprised to find the themes and ideas perfectly valid for today's world climate. The strengths of the book are in Lupo's description of the Vietnam landscape, and the mood and feelings of those involved in the conflict. The interaction and dialogue among characters seems a bit disconnected, but I realized that this is probably for effect- You don't really sympathize with any character except maybe Lusane. The relationships that develop make you feel uncomfortable at times (the marriage of the soldiers to the Vietnamese women, for example) Just as I thought that the book was developing into a typical anti-war anthem, I realized the true underlying theme: The effects of racism. This is what makes this book still relevant in today's world events. I highly recommend this book for an interesting perspective on the Vietnam Conflict and it's effect. A continuation novel seems like it could be a possibility.

The characters are great. The dialogue is exceptional. The story is incredible. Bob Lupo has done an outstanding writing job of bringing the Vietnam War and its soldiers to life. Convincing, gripping, riveting, absorbing-this war novel is a masterpiece. Bravo! to Bob Lupo for an exciting, intelligent, and thoughtful book. This, indeed, would be an award-winning movie, right up there with "Saving Private Ryan" and "The Thin Red Line." --Diana Dell, author, "A Saigon Party: And Other Vietnam War Short Stories"

This fast-paced, turbulent novel focuses on passionate men and women, both American and Vietnamese, caught in a seemingly surrealistic web spun by the war in Vietnam during its intensity of the late sixties. From the author's own firsthand experiences, Lupo skillfully captures in the characters and plot that unparalleled ferocity of close combat---the dread, fear, and doubt---the despair and depravity---that creates a special camaraderie making the horror almost bearable for mortals thrown like coal into the very bowels of a burning hell on earth.

Ominous events unfold in War Zone C (Tay Ninh Province) just miles northeast of Saigon near the Vietnamese-Cambodian border. Three young 25th Infantry Division soldiers befriend some local brothel girls in Tay Ninh City; the hometown of the Buddhist 'Cao Dai' militant sect and prime strategic target for local 'Charlies' and their NVA comrades, infiltrating like ants to honey through the infamous 'Dog's Head' border crossing tributary of the Ho Chi Minh trail. The GI's are told by the commie-hating girls of a plan to attack the 'Holy See' Cao Dai temple in Tay Ninh when South Vietnamese President Thieu is scheduled to give a political speech. This bit of round-the-bout intelligence sets the stage for the decimation of the crack NVA 350th Regiment in a monumental battle with few US loses.

Great stuff for starters, as Lupo leapfrogs events into an intriguing, page-turning story. The three GI's: Doc Luane, James Jaggers, and Pee Wee Anson, are promoted for outstanding 'undercover' work (no pun intended), and, as things often work in the 'Green-machine,' their boss and guardian-angel, Colonel Anson, is promoted to general and assigned to Saigon. Under the circumstances, this couldn't have happened at a more convenient time it seems with Luane, Jaggers, and Pee Wee fighting for their lives against the VC while managing to get married to their Vietnamese heartthrobs. The good general has them transferred to the relative safety of Saigon, just before Tet of 68'. We all know what erupted then.

During all this melee, the girls become pregnant, and Lupo explores the unique personalities of Luane, Jaggers, and Pee Wee Anson now rubbed raw with primeval instincts bared. This is staged against a testy background of racial tensions and negative feelings surfacing against the war, coupled with the bitter catalysts of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy's assassinations back in 'The World'. Doc Luane with his death-wish, Jaggers killer-instinct, and Pee Wee's hatred must somehow be resolved for good to prevail over evil. They bond together in a common goal of somehow getting their expectant brides out of harms way by whatever means possible---even if it means working in the rather shady backdrop of CIA vagabond, Bill Jenkins. Without giving the poignant ending away, I just might say that the author makes the adamant point of America being at war thirty-five years ago while still rattling its sabers in 2003 against an evasive enemy in which there can never be a clear-cut victory---a 'Buffalo's Revenge,' so to speak.

From both a literary and editorial perspective, the book is well organized in placement and sequence of characters and events. Diction, idiomatic construction, and maintaining a proper tone with difficult subject matter deserves special mention. The dialogue is excellent! Mr. Lupo has a talented ability to reproduce everyday speech---both American and Vietnamese---especially the half-humorous and half-hostile exchanges of men who live and work together in constant fear. Conversion of the text to that of a screenplay would give full justice to the author's literary finesse of brilliantly creating a catharsis out of the dismal abyss created by all wars. A 'dang' good Vietnam war era read---highly recommended!

I found Bob Lupo's novel about the Vietnam War to be a real page turner. I couldn't put it down and read half the book at frist sitting. The descriptive images that the author used, made me feel like I was back in the jungles 35 year's ago, when I was a just a young man there myself.

Bob Lupo's novel is a good study in human relationships - in the most trying of situations. Although it deals with race relations - I found it was more about emotional and personal spiritual issues that at are basic to all men. I found myself thinking much deeper about the whole experience after putting down his book.

I highly recomend this book to veterans of any war - or to those who want to get a feel for what it might have been like. Although the story line is not one comon to anyone's experience that I have ever meet - it uses the situation as a way to reveal the inner warrior, that those who fought there might relate to.

This book would make a great movie, if it was ever discovered by the media. This book is well worth spending some time with. I rate it 5 Stars!

Some tiny mice are playing out in the field, late at night. They have a fire going and are dancing inside a buffalo skull. They are having too much fun to realize the danger they are in. Outside prowls a wildcat. Will the wildcat be successful in capturing the mice? Or, will they be able to escape? What lesson will this book teach your children? You've got to read this terrific book to find out the answer.

Author Zitkala-Ša (Red Bird), a Yankton Lakota Sioux woman, took this oral tribal history story and translated it into English in 1901. Brought vividly to life by Illustrator S. D. Nelson, a Lakota artist, I found this book to be totally awesome.

Zitkala-Ša was a very talented native author who brings this oral tale alive in a unique way. This story and others were listened to around the campfires of her youth as told by the tribe's storytellers. She sticks closely to the oral history despite the translation into the English language. This was one of many oral historical tales that she translated from Lakota to English without the help of an editor, interpreter, or ethnographer. Raised traditionally for the first 8 years of her life, Zitkala-Ša then attended boarding school and later graduated from high school and college.

I find it fascinating that this story was written and published by Zitkala-Ša, a prolific native American woman author and native civil rights activist, over 107 years ago; and that this oral tribal history story can still be relevant to children everywhere today. Amazing!

The very gifted S. D. Nelson makes this tale literally jump off the pages and give your child a real feel for the moral message of this story. The artwork is very colorful, appealing, detailed, and kid-friendly in a big way.

This is a must-have book for your child if you want them to know the wise and valuable stories that our First American children grew up with. This is a simple but fun tale that your child will want to read over and over.

This book is put out by the South Dakota State Historical Society Press and is the second book in the Society's Prairie Tale series. Dance In A Buffalo Skull just won the Mom's Choice Awards' Most Outstanding Children's Book of 2008. This is an honor well deserved. Bravo to the South Dakota State Historical Society Press for bringing back the fascinating writings of Zitkala-Ša, so that new generations of the world's children can learn from her and her tribe.

The first thing I noticed when I got the book was how beautiful the cover is. It just makes you want to open it and discover the story within. The introduction to the book gives parents a great understanding of the history behind the story. If you are the type of parent who wants to expose your child to different cultures, this book is an easy and fun way to introduce them to the Sioux Indian Oral Tradition.

The imagery in the story as well as the beautiful artwork make this story a delight to both the eyes and the imagination. The vocabulary of the story is a bit more challenging than is found in your typical children's book, but there is a glossary to help with those words, for the older children enjoying the story.

I don't personally have children, although I've always loved reading aloud to them. I lent my copy of this book to a good friend so she could 'test' it on a real child. Her son, 4yrs old, loved the story and asked for it to be read multiple times. She said he normally doesn't do that. So not only is this book a delight for an adult to read, it is a delight for a child to listen to.

Translated from the original Native American legend into English in 1901 by author Zitkala-Sa, and illustrated by award-winning Lakota artist S.D. Nelson, Dance in a Buffalo Skull is a picturebook tale of mice conducting a dance in old, dried-up buffalo skull, while a wildcat sneaks up on them. The art blends Lakota tradition and modern styles to match the tall tale and bring it to life. At the peak of the dance, the wildcat is spotted and the mice run away into the dark! An enjoyable story faithful to the original legend. Also highly recommended is the first picturebook in the Prairie Tale Series, "The Discontented Gopher".

Well written and amazing to read. Author captured the moment and took you there. Book was flooded with facts.

I would highly recommend this book, it is not only for the history buffs.
If you do enjoy history, you will love the author's details.

I very good book that gives the reader an interesting twist on what was believed to be gospel. The author's research is convincing.

An awesome book....definitely a different view .... a must read for anyone seeking to truely understand Benedict Arnold's story.

Who would have thought that what was assumed by the average student of American history to be an open and shut case against Benedict Arnold could be brought into question. And, furthermore, to do so with such detailed facts woven into a rather gripping novel format. Mr. WIlczak has laid out a compelling case that Arnold was not a traitor but a collaborator with George Washington to ultimately fool the British. This book could be the basis of an excellent movie.

This book expresses a thoroughly researched, fresh approach to one of history's most infamous legends. When I began to read the book I felt my feelings regarding Benedict Arnold could not be swayed. The author, however, through meticulous use of timeline, documented fact, and letters of many of the involved, opened my eyes to the possibility that Arnold may have been the protaganist in a great scheme to free the colonies and help create the United States. I highly recommend this book to anyone who seeks the truth instead of the commonly handed down history stories we have been fed since childhood. AAAAA+++++

This book is great for anyone who collects Junior League cookbooks. It has beautiful pictures and little history tidbits about Buffalo. The recipes are diverse and easy to do. I can't live without the "Sherry Chicken for a Crowd" and the "Potatoes Foster" - both great for entertaining!

Laurels for all the effort put into this cookbook. I found the history tidbits very interesting! The pictures just beautiful. And the recipes mouthwatering. All this in a cookbook?! Way to go Junior League of Buffalo!

I find this book well organized ,with a lot of informations about the community,the town of Buffalo,nice old pictures and very good food,real food for real people.I appreciated expecially the chapter about bread and bakery and some appetizers,anyway all recipes are put down very clearly and it is evident that before writing everything was tested many many times

This cookbook is a must have for anyone who has ever lived in Buffalo or is interested in learning more about Buffalo. The recipes that I have made so far have all been delicious. It has also been very interesting to read the facts and stories about Buffalo.

This cookbook is a five star winner. I have tried many of the recipes and they are all great. I love the artwork and I also enjoy reading about the history of Buffalo. A must have cookbook for all collectors of Junior League Cookbooks.

I found the book easy to read, and had a good plot that kept your interest right up to the end. If you enjoy a good Western, I heartily recommend this "hard to put down" book. You'll enjoy it!!

The art of the Western novel is not dead, as writer C.E. Edmonson brings to life the valor and villainy of the Old West. "Peacemaker of the Pecos" is a refreshingly simple and well-written story with a good old-fashioned hero. My hat's off to you, Mr. Edmonson.

I love westerns and I was pleasantly surprised with this new book, Peacemaker of the Pecos. I cared about the characters, I love the descriptions of the landscapes, I learned from the historical reality of the setting, and I was kept on the edge of my seat my the book's many twists and turns. I highly recommend this book to anyone, not just to those who love westerns, but to anyone who loves a great story!

Reviewed by William Phenn for Reader Views (9/07)

From beginning to end, this western adventure kept me reading. I imagined it to be just another novel about Cowboys, Indians and cattle drives. I couldn't have been more wrong. "Peacemaker of the Pecos" was a story of a town's struggle against tyranny and the evil elements that existed there. The story deals with one man's crusade to rid his town of an evil rancher that wanted to eliminate everyone that got in his way. But what the Hombre didn't count on was William Hart, a simple farmer (they all thought). But William had a secret buried deep inside of him that he wasn't so proud of; a secret that he even kept hidden from his wife and son. That secret would be brought out and William would save the town and all the people in it. Proving that turning the other cheek isn't always the answer.

I will be the first to admit that "I am not a great fan of Western novels," but "Peacemaker of the Pecos" was a very interesting read, from first page to the last. It was more than just a Western story; it had all the makings of a very good adventure. The way it was presented, the characters, plot and climax were a joy to read. I gave it an A and must admit, "I would read another Western that Mr. Edmonson writes, without any hesitation."

This is an excellent book for the topic. Not the usual complaining. While the writer addresses the topic and the problems he also offers positive possible solutions to the issues. It is well worth your time to explore this well written work. Also you can jump about and not have to wade through one chapter to make sense of the next due to the books lay out.

Jim Ostrowski writes on many matters in "Political Class Dismissed" , but the thread that binds these essays together is his doubts about the usefullness and honesty of government. He focusses much energy on the local scene, here in Buffalo, where politicians both local and statewide have destroyed our economy. His family vignettes, and the battles both he and his father have been through, personalize the book in a very meaningful way.
His defense of DiLorenzo's "The Real Lincoln" is incisive and accurate, and catches the spirit of this new breed of Lincoln critics. Jim summarizes the book nicely, and adds his own spin to DiLorenzo's commentary. Lincoln's excesses as a president are amazing to see laid out so graphically. Others have done the same for our twentieth century demigods, Wilson and Roosevelt, leading more and more of us to wonder about how political power is used and abused.
He covers many other areas, but one of my great interests has been the activities of our Communist brethren, especially in the area of murdering their citizens and neighbors. The "Black Book of Communism", while attacked by the left in France and here for being hard and nasty, does what has been needed for a long time. I doubt it will silence the noisy left on college campuses, but it will give some very graphic documentation to the accusations that have long existed against the Communist governments.
I expect that everyone will find many meaningful articles in this collection, and will especially enjoy Jim's humor and energetic writing style.

At this juncture in the catastrophe that is Iraq, I'd like to give credit where it's due. James Ostrowski's readers ought to know that he was one of the first writers, if not the first, to stipulate the solution to blood-soaked Mesopotamia: radical decentralization. In other words, "Kurds, Shiites, and Sunnis should each form their own separate republics."

Kind of like the republic Americans once enjoy before the federal government occupied the States, isn't it? Indeed, it's this "libertarian localism" that I find particularly appealing and laudable in James' work: his firm grasp of-and commitment to-the long-lost American virtues of radical decentralization and local autonomy. For when all is said and done, the real freedom lover doesn't sit on a lofty, holier-than-thou, intellectual perch. Rather, he gets down to the messy business of reclaiming his neighborhoods, as James does in "What's Wrong With Buffalo."

And as James has done (with verve and vim) throughout "Political Class Dismissed."

But even more than this volume's blistering attack on Leviathan, the thing I most appreciate about James Ostrowski is ... James Ostrowski himself. Here's why: "Essays Against Politics," the subtitle of this book, emphasizes not politics (the source of our bondage), but life, private life (the source of our renewal). James practices in life what he preaches in these "Essays Against Politics." He fights injustice as a litigator (and still finds time to write prolifically). He is a devoted family man, whose love and admiration for an inspirational father lights up his work. And he is unusual among libertarians (we are indeed a fractious bunch) for being intellectually honest-James gives credit where and when it's deserved, and in the face of intellectual disagreement and difference.

In addition to a sprinkle of wry humor, James exhibits throughout "Political Class Dismissed" an uncanny knack for distilling the issues: "freedom means doing what you will with what you own," he writes. To our overlords in government, such words are pearls before swine, but they'll resonate with freedom-loving Americans.

James's hero-Thomas Jefferson, the author of "the greatest secessionist document in history, The Declaration of Independence"-is also mine. This is just one of the reasons I call James a friend, and a fellow literary comrade-in-arms.

And why I recommend his book.

Author, Broad Sides: One Woman's Clash With A Corrupt Culture

Political Class Dismissed is a compilation of 50 essays by Buffalo attorney and author, James Ostrowski. One of the lengthier essays contains an excellent historical anlysis of the City of Buffalo, its political structure, and decline. At the turn of the 20th century Buffalo was the eighth largest city in the United States and home to several important industries. It is now a place where blight, unemployment, poverty, and despair are pervasive. Mr. Ostrowski documents how the local political apparatus contributed to the demise of Buffalo.

Another interesting essay focuses on the history of the FBI. This essay demonstrates that, since its inception, the FBI has acted primarily as a domestic intelligence agency whose primary function is to monitor and quash political dissent.

Political Class Dismissed is an excellent addition to the library of anyone interested in American politics and offers thought-provoking solutions on how to get the country back on the right track.

_Political Class Dismissed_ is a collection of 50 hard-hitting essays on the disastrous consequences of government intervention by James Ostrowski, a libertarian attorney and vociferous critic of the "war on drugs." He ranges from local politics (in this case, a searing indictment of statism and judicial corruption in Buffalo) to foreign policy ("Will Iraq Have Democracy or Peace?" offers a way out of the current morass). A section on current and past luminaries highlights Bill Clinton's presidential library, FDR's demagogic inaugural address, Noam Chomsky's economic illiteracy, the contradictions of Michael Moore's worldview, Thoreau's libertarianism, and the high crimes perpetrated by the 16th American president that have been enshrined in the Lincoln Myth. Two closing essays review _The Black Book of Communism_ and provide an overview of how a government strictly limited to defending life, liberty, and property can best ensure peace and prosperity.
It ends with a bibliography of books helpful in understanding libertarian arguments.

Rockin the Rockpile is a fantastic piece of work covering the Buffalo Bills of the American Football League, 1960-1969. Author Jeff Miller has packed it all in here, game summaries, oral histories, and a fantastic narrative that leads the reader through the formation of the AFL in 1959, and the following 10 seasons. Great detail in the game summaries/recaps, and wonderful insight into the inner-workings of the team from the players themselves. Rockin the Rockpile is a must-read for AFL fans, regardless of what team they call their own.

Great book with amazing information and very well written. Extremely interesting to read and just be able to open it to any page and read some very unique information.

Great to remember those years at War Memorial. Could almost taste the Genesee long necks. Enjoyed the recaps of each and every game. Would have liked to see more pictures of the stadium itself however.

Incredibly detailed book, evoking fond memories of a football era gone by. A must for all football fans, especially AFL/Buffalo Bills fans.

As one of the worlds biggest Buffalo Sports Memorabilia Collectors I was very excited to see this book come out. While filled with great stories and tales of the old AFL and a veritable who's who of old Bills interviews I was disappointed to find very little in terms of memorabilia (programs, ticket stubs, pennants, bobble heads, gum cards, jerseys, helmets etc. etc.) displayed. I think a color center spread of all the old items mentioned above would have added to this book tremendously. Also, for a book that centered on War Memorial Stadium (The Rockpile), there's only one aerial picture of it. Some different views of that great old place would have been nice. Still the book is a great addition to a Bills fans collection and a very worthy effort. To the author: Please contact me if you decide to do another book on the Bills or even the Sabres, Braves or Bisons for that matter as my entire collection would be at your disposal. John B.
