Marshall Books

As heralded by such masters as Eckhart Tolle and Don Ruiz the earth at this time is graced by a number of awakened divine flowers of consciousness which grace us with their tremendous healing power and gentility. Marshall Ball is no doubt one such light in our world. His healing gift is through the power of his words. In this important document of our time [A Good Kiss] Marshall Ball uses his gentle and seemingly simple use of the English language to incite a healing effect that evokes deep emotions and directly effects the heart. Short of a miracle, both of Marshall Ball's books are a collection of communications poetically expressed and clearly echo teachings from A Course in Miracles, Eckhart Tolle's Power of Now and Stillness Speaks, and the Conversations with God books, none of which have been a source of study for this young man of 17. It seems Truth is spoken again by another source of pure love, but here, with heavenly gentleness and a poetic voice that can lift and heal the coldest of hearts. I highly recommend reading and studying both "A Good Kiss" and "Kiss of God" as material for spiritual study and personal growth. May this gentle heavenly force continue to grace us with his divine wisdom and healing voice.

This book is excellent; I'm surprised that it is out of print. This is the conclusion to the Aloha Cove series, so make sure to read them in order.

This book is a wonderful collection of quotes from children that have been overheard by grandma and grandpa. It is thoughtful, touching and just down right hilarious. I recommend this book to ANYONE: parents, grandparents, teachers, children, pastors etc. because there is something in it that we all can relate to. It maker a wonderful present and really lets your childs, or your, grandma and grandpo know you care no matter where they live.

John Marshall [1755-1835] was Chief Justice of the United States for the last 34 years of his life. During his long tenure, he turned the Supreme Court from an afterthought into a primary tool for the centralization of federal power; he defined America, though we can still debate whether he got the definition right. This book details how Marshall went about his task.....

This is NOT a biography of John Marshall [see my other reviews]; it is a series of case studies which trace the expanding power of the Federal Judiciary...Marbury v. Madison established the principle of Judicial review of legislative decisions...Virginia v. Cohens asserted federal authority in state affairs...the National Bank...land titles...Indian treaties......there is still disagreement over some of Marshall's decisions, and there was hell to pay over some of them at the time. "John Marshall has made his decision; now let's see him enforce it"...the various ramifications of that statement {which Andrew Jackson MAY not have ever made} are mind boggling....

Charles Hobson is editor of The John Marshall Papers, one of the 2 or 3 greatest living Marshall scholars, and a nice guy [as was Marshall]; he has written a five star book. Do I actually recommend it? Maybe. If you are an attorney or historian with an interest in the topic, it is an absolutely essential volume. Well written, well organized; for me, it was a page turner. For the casual reader, don't waste your money, or insult Mr. Hobson. You will need a good background in either Law [not me], or history [me] to understand it.

Excellent natural history (man's effects on Australia), and an extremely interesting/entertaining read!

Awe-inspiring, breathtaking, it'll knock the rust off your spiritual wheels and have you hungering and thirsting for more of God. The marvelous works of God in days-gone-by leave you praying for revival in your daily world. Faith-raising, doubt-dispelling. Totally must-read for most Christians, especially those whose persuasion allows for miracles, prophetic pronouncements, divine guidance...in other words, all Bible-believing Christians. All this book needs is an up-date on some of the people it applauds, in case they no longer merit such lauding, such as Yonggi Cho and Reinhard Bonnke. Send me your e-mail address and I'll send you a chapter of this book, see if you agree; just tell me if you want old (Wesley, Whitefield, Edwards...) or modern (Korea, Argentina, Africa...)

Eric A. Kimmel's THE GREAT TEXAS HAMSTER DRIVE: AN ORIGINAL TALL TALE tells of Pecos Bill's daughter Sal, who wants a pet hamster.

Thus the great Hamster Drive begins...with Bruce Whatley's drawings fueling excitement.

The Great Wisconsin Manhunt Of 1961 is the true story of an infamous shootout and fallout in the Wisconsin Dells in the summer of 1961. When a police officer was killed, it triggered one of the most intense manhunts in state history. Black-and-white photographs embellish this gripping, truth-more-compelling-than-fiction tale of the dogged chase, meticulously presented by University of Wisconsin professor Marshall Cook. A welcome addition to criminology collections, and especially recommended for "true crime" buffs, and as inspiration resouce for Wisconsin based mystery/action/suspense writers.
