A MUST-READReview Date: 2008-02-03
Fantastic look at the candidates and fund raising. Review Date: 2004-10-20
After reading this book, it will become much easier to see through the candidates rhetoric, and this book or one like it should be a pre-requisite before voting.
The president is bought and sold!Review Date: 2004-03-28
It is a terrible thing to contemplate what money has done to prostitute the American political process. People don't support candidates to do better for the country. They're buying influence and -- if you don't pay, you can't play.
The saddest thing is to look at these obscene expenditures on campaigns and consider what some of that money could do in a good way. And then to consider what more all the money that will be stolen as a result could do on top of that.

"IN A DEMOCRACY YOU GET THE KIND OF LEADER YOU DESERVE"Review Date: 2007-05-02
WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING!!!?
Paul Levy in this book explores this riddle as the collective psychosis that it is. In a country founded on the system "...of, for, and by the people" there are risks. These risks are well worth taking as there has not emerged a better political system. For this brilliant system of democracy to work it DOES require an awareness of the complexities of the individual and collective nature of our fellow citizens. This book beautifully holds a mirror up to the collective soul of America and in essence says, "We have met the disease, and it is us".
The first step to curing a disease is to know the disease. This book provides the microscope to view the germ and possibly the needed vaccine.
My only regret is with the COVER the publisher chose to give this book. The sophistication and intelligence of this book deserves better.

Radical new perspective on psychology of humansReview Date: 2007-08-10
As stated in the foreward, this is not a Bush-bashing book, it simply uses Bush and his administration to describe the 'shared psychosis' that permeates humankind, more or less it seems since the beginning of time. Mr. Levy's writing will jump right off the page and directly into your soul if you have ever studied quantum physics. For me, the jump from classical to quantum physics was fairly easy 25 years ago. However, until I read 'Madness' I had never applied the concept of non-local forces to consciousness itself, or as it were collective consicousness.
This book is well written, and is very understandable regardless of the reader's background. It is essentially a collection of articles, and although there is some repetition throughout chapters, this actually helps enforce some of the key points in regards to collective psychosis. Also, the sections and chapters are well labeled, so that readers can easily choose topics of interest.
I would recommend the book to anyone who has every studied Jung (or who wants to). Also, for any fans of the writings of Ken Wilbur and similar authors seeking to determine the intersection between science and religion, this is a must read.

Sometimes I Buy a Book Because...Review Date: 2008-02-08
Meeting the Challenges of the Last Frontier Head OnReview Date: 2006-06-02
Lee's father had plans for him to graduate from college. Instead Lee married his high school sweetheart, Joan. He worked for his father as an apprentice carpenter. It was seasonal work. Tired of menial jobs and unemployment checks during the winter months, Lee again disappointed his father. He joined the army in 1961.
Lee's service career took him to Germany and France. In 1968 he was transferred to Viet Nam where he served as advisor to the South Vietnamese infantry division and later as an infantry company commander.
In October of 1971 Lee was assigned duty at Fort Richardson. His dream of seeing Alaska had finally come true. However, in 1974 he was sent to Fort Benning, Georgia. Soon Lee was seeking reassignment to duty in Alaska. An opportunity opened and Basner became senior advisor to the 207th Infantry Group of the Alaska National Guard, near Anchorage, for the remainder of his Army career.
As time drew near for his army enlistment to end, Lee began to plan his retirement. Together, with Joan, he looked for a site that would accommodate a cabin home. They both were ready to take on the challenge of the Alaskan frontier by living in the bush.
Lee is a gifted story teller. His descriptions of animal life, nature trails, mountains, and rivers in the vast Alaska wilds are spectacular. In breathtaking word pictures Basner creates new vistas for the reader. "Snow sprinkled the mountains like powdered sugar on cupcakes, and each new snowfall frosted the slopes a little lower." Each chapter includes a photo which depicts something of its contents.
Narrow escapes and life threatening experiences mount up as one after another Basner chronicles his story. He tells of a smoke filled cockpit in his small Taylor Craft airplane. After an emergency landing and repairs he had to battle river rapids for a dangerous take off at 2:30 AM to return home. After landing, securing the plane in a blinding snowstorm, having had no sleep for 24 hours, Lee, the master of understatement put it this way, "For some reason I felt a little tired."
Adventure stories of trapping, hunting, fishing, and photographing moose, wolves, bears, and other wildlife fill the chapters of this rapid paced narrative. The unpredictability of grizzly bears, a midwinter chimney fire, and other narrow escapes will keep you turning the pages of this fascinating account of the Basner's life in the bush.
Lee related how after surviving his tour of duty in Viet Nam, he was plagued by survivor guilt. He hoped to exchange combat nightmares from Vietnam for a new sense of freedom peace and contentment by living in the bush. After some years of roughing it, Lee wrote: "Vietnam intruded less frequently as the years accumulated...the demands of bush living shoved Viet Nam aside, leaving room for healing. The nightmares, less frequent now, retreated to a hidden place, emerging rarely. Drifting and pondering gave me time to realize that I had truly survived and shouldn't feel guilty because of it".
This is a book for everyone who ever had a dream of adventure on the last frontier. It is a book for Veterans, who experienced the ravages of war. Every school library should have a copy. It is for the sportsman, the hunter, and the environmentalist.
This is an incredible read.
A keeper!Review Date: 2006-08-29
Ever since I read Jack London's Call of the Wild when I was a child, I have been enamored of anything to do with Alaska. If a book is set in Alaska, I'll buy it, more for the background and how people live than for the storyline.
Lee Basner was born in Vermont and in his early childhood developed a fascination with the Alaska Territory. It took him thirty years, but he finally achieved his dream of living in the far North. Sick with guilt over the men under his command who never came home from the Vietnam War while he made it through, Lee retired from the U.S. Army as a major at the age of forty-two and he and his wife Joan built a log home 200 miles from Anchorage. They moved in during a March blizzard and lived there for the next sixteen years, pitting themselves against the worst Alaska could throw at them and surviving to tell the tale.
They had no indoor plumbing, self-generated power and no telephone for the first years. Clothes were washed in a wringer washer and hung outside to freeze, after which they were brought inside to thaw in front of the wood-burning stove, the only source of heat.
Balanced against these inconveniences was wildlife at the door, breathtaking scenery and the chance to really live their own lives as they wished, with no one to tell them what to do.
Filled with anecdotes of their daily life from the mundane, like digging a trail to the outhouse, to the poignant such as a herd of caribou caught in an avalanche, many of them killed and injured while Lee was unable to reach them to at least put them out of their misery, I was unable to put the book down. I even took it with me to read while I waited in line at the bank. I loved this book. It's a real keeper.
Uncompromising Life in the Bush, Pioneers in the Vanishing Frontier Review Date: 2006-05-13
This descriptive account of life in Alaska is an eye opener of the fortitude it takes to make it in the Last Frontier. The extreme conditions and the extreme rewards.
This book opens your eyes to the hardships and the little things a tenderfoot wouldn't think of in your survival in the Alaskan wilds. Dotted with humor, sprinkled with love and support of a life mate, along with the daily challenges of self-sufficiency. Here you will find many helpful hints if your dream is to live in the wilds of Alaska. And if it has been your dream it will open your eye to the reality of such a challenge. A marvelous read and an excellent way to experience the wilds vicariously in the comfort and safety of your own armchair, from wildlife survival, to the Elmer's, natures Christening, the antics of the wilds, this books is fascinating, one to read and re-read.
I can only say thank you Lee for writing your experience out in such vivid details.

Brutally True!Review Date: 2005-10-19
Harold Thomas Beck hits George W. Bush right between the eyes with his satirical tyrade, "Tyrannus Bush?"
This is brutally frank and surprisingly honest. It is not the typical Democrat clap trap hate Bush, but instead a frank assessment of the greatest thief and most inarticulate artful dodger in history.
It is dated only by the reference to Bush's age - 58 at the time, but the point is so well made that it becomes timeless and will live as an insightful look at the man who is destroying our Republic.
Well done and we need more like it.
A real winner!Review Date: 2005-10-05
Go Harold Beck! You sum it up so well. You call Bush out for the fraud he really is. You show him up as the coward who wouldn't go to war when it was his time but sends our kids to die now for another stupid cause.
Amazingly true work by a relative unknown!Review Date: 2005-06-11
This work is a must for anyone who disagrees with the direction the government and this nation have taken since the election of 2000. George W. Bush is exposed in a way no one has ever dared to do before - and that includes Michael Moore! The vehicle the author uses is unique. It is worth adding to any library.
The free verse prose sings to you from the pages and the images come alive in your brain as you read on into the depths of Mr. Beck's imagination. This is great, great, great, great; and, utterly magnificent.
Unique, amazing, and a great work!Review Date: 2004-07-07
I was skeptical when I was told about the reading and booksigning. I was surprised beyond my wildest imagination. I gave him a standing ovation. He was great and the work, Tyrannus Bush? is a work of literature that compares with great satirical works like the great Gulliver's Travels.
His use of the English language is without an equal and to read along with and listen to him at the same time is a true and complete learning experience.
Get your copy today but at the same time if you can go hear him in person.
This is a keeperReview Date: 2004-07-06
This on its own is a great work of literature. But to hear him the author do the reading in person was more than I could imagine. He was great.
I was drawn into the conversational tone between Mr. Beck and George Bush whom he refers to constantly as Georgie. He exposes the prejudices Bush and Karl Rove have hidden so well until now. Now the cat is out of the bag and the truth will set us free.
I was also impressed by Mr. Beck the man. What a kind and wonderful person. He made me feel like I was a long lost friend as he signed my book following the reading. Anyone who gets the chance to hear him do his work live should not miss it. The book is a keeper and so is the author, Harold Thomas Beck

As It Was.Review Date: 2007-08-25
Typically reserved, his account does not linger on the incredible cold and loneliness that was his lot on many of his journeys. His willingness to go to the rescue of lost and injured miners and trappers, at great risk to his own life and safety, testify to his own character.
Andy, and the pilots of his time, benefitted from the experience of his friend and mentor, Noel Wien. The pilots of today fly the routes that Andy pioneered.
I recommend the book, "Arctic Bush Pilot" to any who hunger for a taste of how it used to be, in the remote Arctic Circle regions of Alaska.

Not what I expected, but good none the less.Review Date: 2005-10-10
The book is actually a biography of the authors experiences as a bush pilot in the Alaskan wilderness. As such it deals mostly with the authors experiences with the people and environment of northern Alaska. This was still very interesting and I enjoyed reading the book.
Awesome book about the brave bush pilots!!!Review Date: 2005-05-15
I read with great interest the section about Jules Thibedeau, my First Cousin who was a bush pilot from Barrow, AK in the 50's and 60's...his comments about Jules, "The Walking Pilot" brought back memories of the stories I heard as a child about my cousin who would fly anywhere, at anytime, to help anyone in Alaska...a guy who was truely a "tough-luck, no-money" pilot who cared more for the people he helped than he did his own well-being many times.
Anderson's comments came back to life for me during that trip as I visitied Barrow for the first time...only to have an 80+ year-old Eskimo woman tell me how my cousin had saved her son when he was young kid...Jules had flown out in a blizzard to bring her sick child back to Barrow...
Bravo to Mr. Anderson on a "must read" book!!

Though this book can be a bit cumbersome, (you have to turn the book upside-down after each question to read the correct answer) the answers will ASTOUND you. Read what came from Bush's own lips as he answered questions about Vietnam, his military service, and his many failed business ventures. But the one question that is truly sad and heartbreaking is as follows. It was asked by a grade school girl...
Q. Mr. Bush, what was your favorite book when you were a child?
A. I don't remember any books in particular.
Sleep well America.
Hysterical and TerrifyingReview Date: 2004-08-19
5) What did George W. Bush say was the difference between Americans and terrorists?
A) "They're evil, we're good."
B) "They're ugly, we're pretty."
C) "You can't really simplify it like that.There are just too many factors to be considered, too many different things that happen in people's lives for me to be so presumptuous as to make some sweeping generalization."
D) "They hate things, we love things."
ANSWER: D. To put it in context: "See, we love - we love freedom. That's what they didn't understand. They hate things; we love things. They act out of hatred; we don't seek revenge, we seek justice out of love."
It's embarrassing that this man is our President. BTW, the author has a web site called stampoutbush.com.

EXPLANATION
OF THE SIZE
this is a play. the book concentrates on what is done and said, not in the way that someone leans over to
get the morning paper. they dont waiste time. this book if performed would not be tiny, it would be a normal size play.
okay so i get in the car with the book and im all mad cause the price i thought insane for the book and my mom said "then take it back in there cause im not coming back" i said "no, i already ordered it, i might as well read it, i want it" and i start reading it in the car and then i get out of the car and walk out and my moms trying to talk to me. i am completly in this book, i dont hear much of anything.
lets just put it this way. ive never regreted buying that book and ive read it about
20 times or more. the reason that im here buying a new one is because during a move it was stolen and im here to read it
yet again.
read the play, watch the movie and if your in england see the play if its still being shown.
beautiful
thing will steal your heart.
reason behind the movies r rating.
okay its a really innocent movie in most parts.
its
a love story between 2 boys but its also got another branch off because its the story of the boy "jamie" also connecting with
his mother and her boyfriend.
with ste your seeing domestic abuse. ste is a teenage boy in the flat next to theirs thats
being beaten by his father and brother.
with ste and leah your also seeing drugs, granted not in a pro kind of way though
and its not a big part of the movie. its one scene and a small bit of another.
so in a way i guess the r rating is kind
of deserved but there are so many movies that are pg 13 that have so much more than this in them.
