Away

Alan Dennis Burke is a wonderful writer. I've just discovered his novels and I can't get enough of them. His characters keep me involved and his plots keep me intrigued. I hope this wonderful writer comes out with a new novel soon!!!

I think this is an excellent Canadian book and I really like Andrea's character. I haven't been to Newfoundland but the practice of mummering has always been interesting to me. I hope Claire Mowat will write some more books like this.

Lucky me found this book at a book sale. I found the book so true, so down-to-earth, so free of opinion and dogma and theory, that I actually followed a number of practices described by the author. They worked terrifically well. So well, in fact, that I came in here tonight to see what else she may have written. It seems to me that anyone who realizes they always seems to be in the same place, in spite of the fact they always want to get out of it, will appreciate the info and attitudes offered by this book.

I'm sorry this is out of print because GAS is the only self-help book that has hit home for me to the point where I have used it successfully--for myself and as a therapist-- at various points in my life since I got it 10 years ago. It is simple, true, easy to follow and it works.

Giving Away The Keys: A Professor Unlocks The Secrets To College Success by academician Bruce R.

In Giving Away Your Money: A Guide To Effective Philanthropy, Raquel Newman draws upon her many years of experience with non-profit organizations as a funding solicitor and as a dispenser of grants and awards to provide the reader with a quick and accessible orientation to philanthropy in the United states. This highly recommended and informal guide to making intelligent financial decisions about donating to non-profit organizations will insure that anyone having a little extra money to give to a worthy cause or charity will be able to do so with confidence and an enhanced sense of fulfillment that accompanies sound philanthropy and charitable giving.

This book is very informative. It gives step-by-step directions, and lots of suggestions for leaders of small groups. It shows how to grow your group and how to get others to help. A key step is to give the ministry (or vision and responsibility) away to your leadership team who will help you to fulfill the ministry. It changed my way of leadership and helped my singles ministry to grow tremendously, both with a small group of less than 15, and later with a larger group of 50.

A really enjoyable history of baseball's World Series in the nineteenth century. Sorry it's out of print...

This is a great book. My daughter and I just happened to run asross this book in the authors local Middlebury, Vermont book store where she was having a signing the following week. We sat in the book store and read this fun little adventure of a book and loved it from the start. We purchased it and left it there for the auther to sign. A little over a week later we were the very proud owners of a signed copy of this work of art. We have made it a tradition of when we travel we like to purchase a book by a local author. What better souvenir could we ask for. We also like someone, be it the author or friends we visited to sign it. That reminds us of our adventures forever. My daughter can pass these wonderful books down to her childern. Books are truly timeless. Thank you very much. Love. the Halloween Red Head

"Go Away: Just For The Health of It" is a wonderful book for true travellers and arm-chair travellers alike! It is very easy to read and Mel Borins has really put into perspective how easy it is to become so "involved" in the everyday that we don't take the time to stop and evaluate the important things in life.

This book is filled with very funny, interesting and insightful stories about Dr. Borins' actual travel experiences as well as the experiences of his patients, family and friends.

An excellent addition to any one's list of books to read - for yourself or as a gift!

BUY IT - Just for the health of it!!
