Northwest Books

This book is "chock full" of large color photos inspirational for gardening "phantasies" or simple meditation. The text within is perfectly informative without being too lengthy. This is a wonderful addition to any gardeners library.

This book features a host of characters that I could not help but love as my interest in them was captured early on and was captured for the entire work! This book has something for everyone as you become swept up into the action and mystery that largely takes place on the pacific coast. I can't wait for Mr. Wilks next effort, can I purchase an advance copy? Great effort Mr. Wilk, keep up the good work.

Phil Neuweiler was my Dad. He loved hunting and Alaska hunts were his favorite. Doug LaPasta did an excellent job of putting together the notes my dad kept while ill and the book reads as my father spoke. It is a wonderful tribute to the favorite stories and advice that depict the hunts and events my dad experienced during his many years as a big game hunter.

One of the best westerns I have read in a very long time. Can't wait for the sequel and maybe many more????

I am just a beginner birdwatcher and this book was so easy for me to locate the different birds I saw. Very informative-Good drawings and a great price. I just love this book. Being from the Pacific Northwest I didn't want to look through the books that displayed all North American birds. It would take me forever to find the bird I saw and I would forget most of the time what the features were. With this book-refined down to the pacific northwest birds- it is so easy and QUICK to identify the birds in my backyard and on the coast. Pick one up today....you won't be disappointed.

This book covers a large variety of birds without being too complicated. The pictures are located on the ends of the pages, making it easy to thumb and find the bird you are looking for. The text tells bird features and interesting habits.

The information doesn't seem to mention that there is a CD of bird sounds. It's very cool!

I used this book before a 7th grade field trip to a wildlife refuge. I put pictures of the birds (from the Internet) into a PowerPoint presentation and added the bird sounds from this disk. We listened to the sounds and made notes about what each bird looked like and sounded like. When we went to the refuge, the students could identify wigeons, grebes, and wood ducks. Waterfowl don't just quack.

I also liked listening to the songbirds and using the sounds to identify the little birds that hard to see in the bushes. If you enjoy figuring out what's in your yard or your neighborhood, you'll enjoy having this CD and book combination.

Dr. McDonald has written a novel based on historical facts as he takes us through the Bitterroot Mountains of Idaho. The Chinese laborers become real as they look for gold in the 1860s. The greed for gold touches the lives of every man.
Then in the 1960s McDonald brings us forward one hundred years. It is a mystery but also a well-developed look at forestry and the real grit of these men who preserve our national treasure of trees.

This book will keep you entertained for hours. Matt captured the true essence of good versus evil!
