Harris Books

Ian Guild is well known in the Forfaiting (Amazon, please note, your spelling is incorrect!)arena and this book of his has helped many a practitioner and neophyte alike. Starting from basics, the authors outline the origin of forfaiting, its advantages and drawbacks, the technicalities behind forfaiting quotations, quote comparision. Most interesting of all are the key cases discussed which bring out both the operational as well as legal angles to forfaiting. You do not have to be an expert to understand the subject; Guild and Harris have a gift for simplifying concepts and making them easy to understand. Highly recommended, even though the book is now old.

When I bought this book my first thought was; Why is a young writer as Mr.Forgiveness: Hippie G. Harris J. Aponte best known as Hippie G. Harris writing poetry? The messages quickly and unknowingly to me emerge from the poems not as secrets are reveal. All of us in one or another way knows the messages of the poetry of this promising author. As a Photographer left his best legacy in a excellent Photography that captures one moment in time or history, this book gave us the first of I hope and desire to him many more books like this one that Photography his feelings, our feelings like a Photography of life.

This is one of the 5 most important books I have ever read. It is a brilliant synthesis of science, philosophy, and vision. Harris knows an astonishing amount of physics, and the book still reads as up-to-date in science and far ahead of its time, and our time, in philosophy and implication.
It is engrossing, fun, and provocative. A truly great book.

This work of fiction and non-fiction is a very refreshing, creative and inspiring work. It is a very unique story of 5 women whose lives have been changed by the soul stirring music and lyrics of the R & B group Maze Featuring Frankie Beverly. As the author stated, it will take your mind for a flight on the wings of Frankie's Angels. I experienced the emotions of the joys and pains of the Angels through this writer and you will too. As an avid reader I am thrilled to add this great work to my bookshelf. You will be too. B. Shaw of Los Angeles.

For me the best book I've read. A tremendously educational book on slavery, faith, endurance, love, spiritualness, patience, and the importance of family values.

I could not put the book down because of the excitement of looking ahead. You could almost feel yourself wanting to be their in real life and seeing first hand the events unfold.

The author clearly reveals to me his heartfelt feelings for his heritage, and his writing makes you want to be a part of that past. As I was finishing the final chapters I had to go and find the burial place of "Freejoe", and experience some of his past. What a great feeling it was walking in the cemetary at Gray's Creek Baptist Church.

As an inveterate buyer, reader and user of cookbooks I found this book one of the best that I've recently used. Living as I do in Australia, it was released here for the Christmas season of '02 and was not at the time available for comment through Amazon so I was pleased to see it listed today when I had a check. It is a first-rate cookbook and I'm sure those that use it's recipes will be happy with the results.

I am taken by the quality of the photos that are an exceedingly important part of the book. It therefore becomes a joy to read because of those excellently selected and arranged photos. Beyond the visual is of course the substance of the book with its collection of recipes-the body of which are not the usual ones found in collections of French cooking.
My wife and I have tried a large example of them and they have proved to be easily cookable and extremely tasty and we anticipate further culinary discoveries as the weeks go by.

This marvelous cookbook is as good as it is, I believe, because the grandmother of Joanne Harris cooked many of these country dishes after they had been passed to her from her grandmothers. The French Kitchen has a decidedly country kitchen take on French cooking and believe me, the book does not suffer because of it.

I loved reading every word in this wonderful book and also loved looking at the inspired photographs and thought all the while that the people at Doubleday who designed such a beautiful book deserve a large bonus for assembling such a delightful book.

The Learnables book series is an awesome resource to use in foreign language classrooms. I have used Book 1 and its accompanying audio cassettes in a seventh grade French class. The students comprehend the language easily, and don't make typical blunders of other students. It is fun for the students and amazing how much they really pick up from the tapes. I highly recommend it for use in any foreign language class, middle or high school. In fact, I used it as the only text book for seventh grade French. It worked marvelously!

Wow! The author D. Felecia Walker is an walking example of a woman after God's own heart. I'm still on a spiritual high from reading this book. Mrs. D. Felecia Walker has really made a great impact in my life.

She shared with the reader unconditional love that she has for her husband and her friend in spite of her husband's life style. She continued to love him no matter what.

She showed us in the book, "From Better to Worse" to trust in the Lord and lean not to our own understanding, in all our ways acknowledge Him, He will direct our path. She had faith in God and didn't question why this was happening to her and her family. She trusted God.

She made safrices to keep her family together. The sacrifice was keeping the secret of her husband's lifestyle and this disease AIDS/HIV to herself, she went through this painful situation alone; she didn't have an outlet or anyone to cry out to but God. She made the sacrifice to keep this from her children and all those that was dear to them from knowing about this devastating disease until after his death. She chose to go through this thing for better to worse.

This book is seemingly overlooked in all circles. Whether you are highly educated, or just interested in the simpler topics/literature, this book is a worthwhile read. The author discusses personal opinions in view of science and scripture, and attempts to help the two coincide a little better. In my humble opinion, he does a fine job. This book is almost 20 years old, yet his ideas are sound and his explanations of the science is easy to grasp.
One doesn't have to agree with him to enjoy this book. It is a leap in the right direction, and it was a leap taken a while ago. I don't know why it hasn't been pushed my way before. If you enjoy thinking about some questions in Christianity and/or Mormonism, this book is worth your time (since it is on the thinner side anyway).

Taylor's book is exactly what the title says. Many books make promises but this author delivers the goods. I sat on the edge of my seat during the time of Jessica's terrible accident. I was with her riding in the ambulance, waiting on pins and needles with her family to learn the dim prognosis. But the story only gets better.
During the time of her long and painful rehabilitation, Jessica does not spare herself. She tells it 'like it is' and we are captivated, charmed, entertained and the tears fall shamelessly and unchecked. My husband read her book after me and I saw the tears on his cheeks. He, too, had been through a terrible accident, experienced a brain injury and knew, like Jessica, that it was the will of the individual that caused a person to either overcome or give up. Jessica, of course, did triumph but she made sure that others knew her story - including royalty - and she also went back into the darkness to take the hands of others too afraid to believe that the light could still be theirs once again. Truly a masterful read.
