Book Description
In communities throughout precontact Mesoamerica, calendar priests and diviners relied on pictographic almanacs to predict the fate of newborns, to guide people in choosing marriage partners and auspicious wedding dates, to know when to plant and harvest crops, and to be successful in many of life's activities. As the Spanish colonized Mesoamerica in the sixteenth century, they made a determined effort to destroy these books, in which the Aztec and neighboring peoples recorded their understanding of the invisible world of the sacred calendar and the cosmic forces and supernaturals that adhered to time. Today, only a few of these divinatory codices survive. Visually complex, esoteric, and strikingly beautiful, painted books such as the famous Codex Borgia and Codex Borbonicus still serve as portals into the ancient Mexican calendrical systems and the cycles of time and meaning they encode.
In this comprehensive study, Elizabeth Hill Boone analyzes the entire extant corpus of Mexican divinatory codices and offers a masterful explanation of the genre as a whole. She introduces the sacred, divinatory calendar and the calendar priests and diviners who owned and used the books. Boone then explains the graphic vocabulary of the calendar and its prophetic forces and describes the organizing principles that structure the codices. She shows how they form almanacs that either offer general purpose guidance or focus topically on specific aspects of life, such as birth, marriage, agriculture and rain, travel, and the forces of the planet Venus. Boone also tackles two major areas of controversy—the great narrative passage in the Codex Borgia, which she freshly interprets as a cosmic narrative of creation, and the disputed origins of the codices, which, she argues, grew out of a single religious and divinatory system.

Another Great Installment.......2007-09-01
Kat Bowen is living in Washington D.C. during the woman's fight for the vote. Her own mother is among the woman picketing outside the White House Kat writes down her own views and opinions during this time. She supports her mother but at the same time worries about her mother. Especially after Kat sees how women picketing are being treated. She also witnesses trouble in her family when her uncle is so against the picketing and noting of women voting to the point it almost ruins the marriage of her aunt and uncle. Its amazing how badly picketers were treated and at the same time the women who did picket and go through the hunger strikes and horrible time in jail they were all so brave. An excellent book.
Another Great Dear America book!Their addicting! .......2006-03-04
What can I say!!!Another great Dear America Book!!Their becoming addicting.As Kathleen Bowen lives with a topsy-turvy life you can see the real life features of Life in Washington D.C. 1917.Great book for anyone who is as addicted to the Dear America Series as I am!!
Taking a stand for a better life..........2006-02-24
Kat Bowen is a thirteen year old Washingtonian girl. Her family is generally wealthy, and she has a s many friends as she could need. Her cousin is her best friend, Alma, and her father is a well known and widely respected physician. But when the first World War and the women sufferage in her own home city begin to take the spotlight in her life, Kat finds herself being pulled deeper in with each day. Her mother decides to become a sufferagete, and her father supports her.
But Kat's uncle, Alma's father, is outraged, and refuses to allow the womenin her family to participate. Kat decides to help her mother sew banners for the suffragete movement, and do other deeds to help the women.
Real characters are incorperated into the book, which is one of the reasons as to why it is such a good historical reference. Another success in the Dear America Series.
One of the Best in the Series.......2005-10-09
A Time for Courage by Kathryn Lasky is one of my all-time favorite books in the Dear America historical fiction series. It is not particularly my favorite era of American history, but it is so well-written and interesting you just fall right in.
Kathleen Bowen's mother, aunt, older sister, and best friend's mother are all deeply involved in women's suffrage and equality rights, living in Washington D.C., 1917. Kathleen's father does not approve only because he worries for his wife's safety---many women have been arrested and beaten by police for protesting outside the White House. Yet Kathleen's friend's father disapproves of his wife's antics because he is a bit of a sexist. Soon, Kathleen becomes involved with the rights of women everywhere, just like her sisters and mother.
This timeless addition in Dear America will please all, and I promise you shall not be able to put it down. All the protagonists are extremely likable, and this book is just indescribably great. I just can't put it to words. READ IT!
Great book.......2003-11-17
I have read many books in the dear America series and this one is one of my favorites. I liked it because in addition to being well written it's also exciting. Not only does Kathleen Bowen's mother Join the picket line and get arrested, but America also joins the first World War. Kathleen's sister and cousin leave to become nurses in Europe on the front. So not only was the book fun to read, but I also learned a lot about the suffrage movement.
Book Description
Prophecy expert Mark Hitchcock deals with often-raised questions about America's future in this thoroughly researched, reader-friendly resource. Examining three prophetic passages that are commonly thought to describe America, Hitchcock concludes that the Bible is actually silent about the role of the United States in the End Times. He then discusses the implications of America's absence in prophetic writings. Along with Hitchcock's compelling forecast for the future, he offers specific actions Americans can take to keep their nation strong and blessed by God, as well as an appendix of additional questions and answers.

Thought Provoking.......2006-11-10
This book is more of a Q & A session with the author. It does bring out some very interesting points of view however. I know, most of us are curious about this subject, as I am. It will answer some very basic questions. In the end it leaves the final question up to the reader. What are your own beliefs?
this name "Maitreya" is the sum of 666........2006-07-12
Let any man who understands know that this name "Maitreya" is the sum of 666. This being is none other that the Light Bearer-The Bright Morning Star-THE FALLEN ONE...LUCIFER. Woe unto the inhabitants of the earth, for the beast has come down to you as a Lion, seeking whomever he may devour--Revelations. There is only ONE Christ. He was the ONLY son of God Yehovah. For God so loved the world, that he gave his ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, so that who so ever shall believe in him shall not parish but have everlasting life--John 3:16 "Beware, for many will come saying here is the Christ, or I am the Christ...they will come as wolves in sheep's clothing"--Lucifer will claim to be the Christ!. Do not be deceived...For The one and only Christ-JESUS-said in Matthew "There shall rise false Christs, who shall show great signs and wonders...he shall deceive even the elect." Maitreya who promises us something that he cannot give, has only one agenda...to destroy the human race. Christ will indeed return to earth after 7 years of Maitreya's rule. This time will be known as the Tribulation. This Tribulation's beginning will be marked by Maitreya's 7 year agreement w/ Isreal. This agreement, like all promises made by the Father of Lies, will be broken. There is no "Godhood" for any of us. This same thing was promised to Eve in the Garden... "for you will know the difference between good and evil and be as Gods" The real reward for this trespass against God (as Lucifer knew it would be according to eternal law) was seperation from God and the beginning of suffering. "And take heed to yourselves, lest anytime your heart be overcharged [with the cares of this life ] so that the day will come upon you unawares" Luke 21-34
This life is nothing in the scheme of things. God Speed in these last days.
Short but Concise and Well-Written.......2004-05-18
I bought this book and was glad to see a refreshing change compared to other books I've read. America is simply not in the Bible. The author does a careful job of avoiding foolish speculation. In the end, he believes the rapture is the key to the downfall of America. That answer will not convince everyone that it's true but I believe he is right. This book is a must-read, especially if you are not up to speed on the end times because the author gives enough information without going into complicated details.
Derek is wrong.......2004-04-17
The book is dead on.
We will be judged according to our faith and then rewarded by how WE treated God's chosen, the Jews.
Like yelling fire.......2004-02-17
My mother had always been a pretty sensible lady, but after my father died she became a bible-thumping Christian. And she was really into the evangelical cause. She'd never cared about politics much, but now she is full of paranoiac gibberish about Hillary Clinton and the Trilateral Commission, taxpayers' money being sent to a secret hole where the Catholic Church was developing mind control drugs to convert American presidents etc etc etc
This has become her favorite book. We live in an area that has been overrun by retirees, with new people moving in all the time, of all kinds. Pretty nice people too, but many of them are pretty different from the people we grew up with. To see the old lady peeping suspiciously out the window, then picking this Hitchcock nonsense up about the "Antichrist" and claiming these people are from the United Nations and the Pope and the Communist Party, it's driving us crazy. She thinks the Methodist Church is in on it too, since they came out against the Iraq War.

America's All-Time Favorite Songs.......2006-01-01
I have been buying music books for over 20 years and this is, by far, the most complete! I bought 5 copies for family and friends and they all loved it. It's THE book that should be in every music collection and schools. If you had a 10 star rating, I would give it a 10. Thank you, Amy Appleby for sharing your expertise with us. Write more!
Love this book.......2005-10-10
Even though I've been playing piano (and other instruments) for years, I'd never bought a complete music book until this one. It covers everything. It's the perfect start or addition to any musician's library.
Favorite songs.......2005-07-03
This is a great collection of all types of songs. Although I don't play an instrument, my son is learning to play the keyboard. I have used the songs for groups at work and now my son is getting use of it as he learns to play. It is truly a wonderful collection of music.
Music Lover.......2005-07-03
I have had this book for almost 10 years now and finally started to learn to play the piano. Over the years I have used it for the songs mostly with clients for music therapy. Several clients have used it to play keyboard. With over 200 selections, there is something for everyone. It has seen a lot of use but is still in wonderful condition. These books are made to last and the comb binding allows it to lie flat which is definitely a plus for all levels of musicians.
Super Choice.......2004-07-15
This was a very good choice for me, it gave me alot of different music to choose from. The style made it eay to read and turn pages. I was most impressed with the idea I could go from a lullaby to a marching tune without having to switch books.
Book Description
Selected by Choice magazine as an Outstanding Academic Title for 1996"[Marsh and Ronner make for] a highly successful combination in which faultless clinical detail and a broad social and cultural approach are seamlessly woven to produce a very impressive and beautifully written historical work of the first importance." -- Irvine Louden, Journal of the Social History of Medicine
In The Empty Cradle, Margaret Marsh and Wanda Ronner delve into the origins of the many misconceptions surrounding infertility as they explore how medical and cultural beliefs emerged throughout its controversial history. Drawing on a wide variety of sources -- including intimate diaries and letters, patient records, memoirs, medical literature, and popular magazines -- The Empty Cradle investigates the social, cultural, scientific, and medical dimensions of infertility over the past three hundred years.
Marsh and Ronner explore reactions -- among both physicians and husbands -- to the emerging scientific evidence that infertility was a condition for which men and women bear equal responsibility. The book concludes that infertility is still a subject affected by myth and misunderstanding. A lively and compelling history of a complex medical and cultural phenomenon, The Empty Cradle brings a valuable perspective to current debates about how we should think about and address the experience of infertility in our own time.
"Marsh and Ronner have sought to go beyond the published medical literature to disclose the voices of those most affected by the physiological and cultural condition of infertility... they have restored to the historical record the anguish and the hopes of women who experienced infertility." -- Rima D. Apple, American Historical Review
"The book's lucid explanations of medical terms and procedures will allow me to recommend it to my infertility patients. I plan to do so, trusting that it will give them a new perspective on their predicament. Knowing that it provided me a new perspective on both infertility and the practice of gynecology, I will also assign it an honored place in my medical library." -- Janet E. Shepherd, M.D., Journal of the American Medical Association
" The Empty Cradle demonstrates the profound impact of politics as well as culture on the development of medical practice. It is an excellent model for future scholarship on the complex relationship between science and society." -- Elaine Tyler May, Journal of the History of Medicine and Allied Sciences

Sacagawea's Child--a gem........2005-08-30
As a Lewis and Clark historical interpreter, I have found scholary articles dealing with Jean Baptiste or Sacagawea or Toussaint but the authors rarely cover all three. A few recent books have attempted to cover all the Charbonneau family members but failed to be as well researched and thorough as Ms. Colby's. Her insightful and well documented passages allow the reader to understand the motivation that led the Charbonneaus to action and made them crucial to Lewis and Clark and westward expansion. This is the definitive book for understanding the 100-year saga of Toussaint Charbonneau, his young wife, Sacagawea and their son, Jean-Baptiste, who became the prototype American adventurer and pioneer. As I historically present Toussaint Charbonneau, this book will be held in one hand as the ultimate historical reference.
A carefully researched biography of the son of the legendary Native American guide.......2005-08-06
Sacagawea's Child: The Life And Times Of Jean-Baptiste (Pomp) Charbonneau is a carefully researched biography of the son of the legendary Native American guide and heroine of the Lewis and Clark expedition, Sacagawea, and her French-Canadian husband. Paying attention to both what can be reconstructed from historical record and what scholars remain in dispute over to this day, Sacagawea's Child offers as full a picture as possible of events from before Jean-Baptiste's birth to the circumstances of his demise. Though Jean-Baptiste was flesh-and-blood with flaws like all human beings, he was also a "citizen Indian" who sought to remain mindful of his heritage while living peacefully among people of various cultures, and his story is ultimately one of exploration, wonder, and tolerance. A highly recommended addition to school, public, and reference library shelves, as well as personal biography and American history shelves.

One of the cookbooks I use the most.......2004-07-14
I own a few hundred cookbooks with a dozen or so being favorites and this is one of my favorites and for a variety of reasons. First because it is so complete and covers frying, poaching and steaming (a favorite),simmering and stewing, oven cooking, grilling,campfire (another favorite), smoke cooking and pickling. This makes it a well rounded fish cookbook.
The photos are excellent and the information on cooking utensils needed is precise and clear cut. Spices and other ingredients are covered so well as are step by step directions.
On page 6 there is a well laid out substitution chart that makes the book worth the price, and here are a few examples. A recipe calls for Whitefish, The chart notes that if Cisco is called for that Tullibee, herring o lake herring can be substituted. Page 7 shows detailed photos and text for preparing fish for cooking. Did you know that by sprinkling salt on the counter and laying the fish on the salt that this helps prevent the fish from slipping when filleting or deboning? Simply rinse fish with water when done. Or on page 11 that draining fried fish on cookie cooling racks placed over paper towels allows for more oil to drain and prevents the fried fish from becoming soggy?
Or on page 71 that pouring 1/4 to 1/2 inch of liquid like fish stock, wine, beer, or vegetable broth into the broiling pan before broiling adds moisture and flavor during cooking?
Some of my favorite recipes from the book are the Sauteed Trout with wild mushrooms, Potato flaked Fillets, the various Buttermilk based coatings, Northwest Salmon Burritos, Salsa stuffed Trout and Smoked Salmon Salad.
This is a cookbook for any serious, healthy eating fisherman/cook.
All-time Favorite Fish Recipes.......2000-05-19
This book is full of delicious recipes without exotic ingredients nor without exotic fish! It puts a spring in the step of eating fish again. I am now done with the same old recipes I had been using and now use this book as my source! My nephew saw this book on the table (he's the big fisherman in the family) and is ordering this book as well.
Good Cooking.......2000-05-10
I recently bought this book for my boyfriend for his birthday, and I must say, we both love it. He has this new cooking frenzy going on, and I am enjoying every bit of it, because I love to eat. We are both fish lovers, so this book has been very helpful to the both of us. The recipes are tasty and healthy as well. I would recommend it to anyone that likes to eat fish.
Book Description
Although evangelicals entered the century as full partners in the Protestant denominations and agencies that molded American cultural and intellectual life, since the 1970s evangelical Protestantism has been perceived as alien to other Americans. Mr. Hart unpacks evangelicalism's current reputation by tracing its development over the course of the twentieth century. An excellent interpretive synthesis. --Leo P. Ribuffo

To Exile and Back.......2006-12-07
The growth and vitality of Evangelical Protestantism and its ascendancy into positions of political influence has come as a great shock to many in the secular culture. It is as if this seemingly backward and insignficant group came out of nowhere and siezed the reigns of the nation against its will. This attitude, shared by many on both coasts, is largely a myopic one born in a period when Evangelical Protestantism had withdrawn into a self-imposed exile and slid into an isolated subculture where it built up walls between itself and other Americans. Now that Evangelicals are again exerting their influence, there is shock on the part of many who assumed their beliefs had been relegated to a tiny rural minority. Yet in many ways, Evangelicals are attempting to reassert a dominance once unchallenged in American society.
Historian D. G. Hart has undertaken a thorough study of the withdrawal and reemergence of Evangelicalism in American culture in That Old Time Religion in Modern America. Hart begins by pointing out Evangelicalism's once dominant position in American culture, it's loss of that position, and speculates that much of the reason Evangelicals tend to feel out of place in contemporary American society is the loss of their once privelaged position in American society.
Hart divides his study of modern Evangelicalism into two parts. The first, stretching from the period of roughly 1920-1960, details the construction of the Evangelical subculture within a self-imposed ghetto when Evangelicals separated themselves from the larger culture and had little interaction with the larger culture. The second period, covering the period of roughly 1960-2000, covered the reemergance of Evangelical Protestants from their cultural withdrawal and their recent attempts to retake the culture for Christian ideals as they perceived them.
Moving effortlessly between the Evangelical response to theological, social, political, and academic controversies, Hart never forgets the importance of the personal conversion experience to Evangelicals. Thus, he is able to understand the Evangelical position on their terms and not just that of an outsider or an antagonist.
The Evangelical movement is reaching a crossroads as many in the movement are now beginning to question its allegiance to conservative politics, its compromises with the popular culture, and its ahistorical approach to theology and worship. In order to judge where Evangelical Protestantism might go in the future, we must first understand its past. D. G. Hart has provided a masterful guide and for those who seek to understand the Evangelical movement, That Old Time Religion in Modern America is essential reading.
Take Up, And Read!.......2006-08-01
D.G. Hart does it again! If you've not read anything by Hart before, let this one be your first (it certainly won't be your last!). Hart combines accurate history telling with insightful analysis and draws profound conclusions. Through telling the story of 2oth century evangelicalism, Hart points up the inherent tension in evangelical thought and practice. Ever wonder why evangelicals have progressive (read: unchurchy) worship services and yet have conservative politics (i.e., wanting to make the world look like the church?). Hart answers this interesting question.
Here are just some of the better quotes from the book:
"For many evangelicals, the way they thought of their own quest for holiness was also the way that they ended up thinking about society . . . . The moral strenuousness of evangelical piety ordinarily invites born-again Protestants to demand of society the same sort of righteousness they expect from one another. [However] To conclude that Tim LaHaye, Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, the Moral Majority, or the Christian Coalition represent[s] the political views of all evangelicals would be a mistake." (D.G. Hart, That Old-Time Religion in Modern America, p. 169).
"Yet at Fuller's opening exercises, students, faculty, and well-wishers heard more about the wretched state of Western civilization and the need for Christian thinking than they did about the condition of American churches and the importance of well-trained pastors" (D.G. Hart, That Old-Time Religion in Modern America, p. 115)
"In other words, evangelicals seem to be inherently inconsistent, striking a pose at once adaptable and rigid, progressive and conservative, modern and old fashioned, at ease and at odds with American ideals. The result of these apparent anomalies is a religion that on Sunday is comfortable with the church looking like the world (such as CCM) and throughout the rest of the week insists that the world look like the church (as in family values)." (D.G. Hart, That Old-Time Religion in Modern America, p. 215)
Hart traces evangelicalism's current reputation.......2003-10-05
Hart traces evangelicalism's current reputation by tracing its development over the last hundred years, from its part in the Protestant denominations that modeled American religious thought to its controversies of the 1920s which marginzalized evangelicals in American denominations. An intriguing survey of the course of evangelical Protestantism in this century in America.
Tackles the history and concepts of evangelicalism.......2003-02-08
In That Old-Time Religion In Modern America, religious historian Hart tackles the history and concepts of evangelicalism, tracing its development over the 20th century in America from its roots in Protestant faiths and agencies to its more modern insertion into politics and culture. An excellent survey which provides much focus on 20th century evangelical effects on modern society.
