Walsh Books

THIS IS TRULY A BAD BOOK. I LOOKED THE PUBLISHER UP AND ITS A VANITY PRESS, IN OTHER WORDS A PAID FOR BY THE AUTHOR PUBLISHING HOUSE. I CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW IT GOT ON AMAZON. ITS RAMBLINGS OF AN OLDER GENTLEMEN ABOUT VARIOUS DATES HE HAS HAD IT THE PAST. ITS CLEAR HE DOES NOT HAVE SPELL CHECK. I THOUGHT THAT HE WOULD HAVE SOME KIND OF HINT OF DIFFERENT THINGS HE TRIED, OTHTER THAN TRY YOUR LOCAL SENIOR CENTER.....A TRUE WASTE OF MONEY, I AM SELLING MINE ON AMAZON. IT HAS INSPIRED ME TO WRITE MY OWN BOOK, WHICH WILL BE SOOOOOO MUCH BETTER AND HAVE SOME GOOD INFORMATION.

DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK. IT IS POORLY WRITTEN, HAS THE GUY NEVER HEARD OF SPELL CHECK. I AM THINKING THAT THIS MUST BE PUBLISHED BY A KIND OF VANITY PRESS. I HAVE MORE ADVENTURES AND BETTER STORIES THAN THIS PERSON. TELLS YOU NOTHING THAT YOU DID NOT ALREADY KNOW, GIVES ADVICE LIKE CHECK YOUR LOCAL SENIOR CENTER, REALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT HAS GIVEN ME AN IDEA TO WRITE MY OWN BOOK, WHICH WOULD BE MUCH BETTER AND GIVE SOME ACTUAL PLACES TO TRY....A TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY, WILL TRY TO RESELL IT ON AMAZON.

Tony Hawks Underground Official Strategy Guide does not help at all. I beat the game without even looking at it. It was a waste of money.

If you're any good at any of the previous Tonk Hawk games you could beat this game in an afternoon. The guide is Never Helpful. It tells you where things are but you can figure that out on you're own easily. The game is short and easy and guides aren't meant for games like this. Save your money and go to gamewinners is you get stuck.

I nearly fell asleep reading these reader plays. History can be fun but not with these long and tiresome plays.

This one has a but just a few intriguing photographs of our friend: the bison.

However, portions of the text follow a decidedly definite Euro-centric point of view with regard both the bison and the indigenous ("Native American") population of this land prior to European "settlement."

Lacking is virtually any reference to the deep and significant reverence with which the bison was held by the indigenous population.

Having written the above, just wish to let the authoress know that we indians are surer glad all you white folks came and showed us what to do with the bison bison.

It seems a shame a tree or two had to give it's very all for this particular tome.

My advice: skip it. Lots of better "bison books" out there !

$5.95 for less that two pages of marginally useless information about an intervention that had no clinical effect? Buyer beware. Selling this "brief article" at this price seems unethical to me.

Art historical scholarship has undergone a profound revolution in the past 25 years, but you would never know it from this tedious monograph. Walsh writes reasonably well, but without passion. The greater flaw, however, is the abscence of the kinds of histortical, political, social, or other insights that would provide a context for understanding the larger significance of Steen's work. Instead, one is left with a journeyman quality academic tome.

I was attracted to this book since I was curious to find out more about the subject. A man of whom I knew very little but who played a major but unsung role in the National movement.
I have rarely been as disappointed in any book I have ever read. It is truly awful. I am reminded of the old dictum of not putting this book down lightly, rather it should be thrown away with the greatest force.
The author is not a historian of any kind, she does not have even a basic grasp of the English language. Sentences consistently mangle the most basic grammatical structures, misspellings abound. That is bad enough but she is also far too sentimental in her descriptions of events which are not even a part of the story, in particular her descriptions of Gaelic cultural & sporting events. Gushing would be an extreme understatement.
She also has an annoying tendency to vent her own biased political views.
How can a book as bad as this be published without a review of any sort ?
A good book on Sam Maguire is an excellent idea. This is not it.

awesome book with tons and tons of photos and brief historys behind the carvers. way more pics than words...andy
