Every husband needs to read this book to overcome ignoranceI have been a Christian husband for 29+ years and thought I was a very good husband. I read this book and it pinpointed my weakness as a husband, one item at a time untill I was exhausted - but had to agree with it. THE SCRIPTURE REFFERENCES ARE DYNAMITE!
This book is for MEN to learn WHY & HOW to Love their WIFE.This is an excellant book that will teach men why the are here and why they are married to their wife. It shares GREAT insight for men on HOW to love their wives and why their wife does the things they do and what she is expecting of her naturally as God intended. No other book that I have encountered teaches men the ins and outs of why they are where they are as this book does. It is a must read for all men looking to be what he is meant to be here on earth. It should be taught in school. The synopsis needs to be changed. Women benefit in reading the book to see where her husband maybe coming from, but MEN need to read the book to have a successful marriage and become the glory of God as God intended. It will do no man any good for his wife to read it untill he has read it himself.
Awesome! Separates the men from the boys."There is a way that seems right unto a man; but in the end ...." Most of us guys think we know what a woman needs from us and how we should treat the most important woman in our lives. Often we get left wondering what happened when this woman ends up gone or, at best, leaves us alone in our own house. Many such marriage let downs could be eliminated simply through discovering and using the practicalities of marriage which abound within this book. Every man could use a dose of this stuff on a regular basis. A great book for real men.

For late-20th-century culture, Berlin in the 1930s has become a place of mythic enchantment and decadence, a hypersexual Eden fraught with the danger of oncoming fascism. But this late-century fantasy of the Weimar Republic has always obscured the material reality of the actual time and place. Norman Page's Auden and Isherwood: The Berlin Years is a succinct, extraordinarily well researched, and perceptive look at a very complicated cultural and political point in history. While Page organizes his book as a joint biography of novelist Christopher Isherwood (whose Berlin Stories were the basis for Cabaret) and poet W.H. Auden--two politically progressive Englishmen who fled to Berlin to pursue the personal freedom they could not find at home--the book is actually a portrait of frantic Berlin culture from 1928 to 1933. While Auden and Isherwood were drawn to the city because of its open gay social life, Page makes it clear that the conditions allowing that freedom also created a vibrant, exhilarating artistic culture. From Josef von Sternberg's The Blue Angel to Magnus Hirschfeld's fight for sexual liberation, Page places Isherwood and Auden (and their work) in a clear and beautifully textured historical context. Using Isherwood's Christopher and His Kind and Auden's unpublished diaries, Page brings new insights to both these writers and an era that had a profound formative effect on their lives and work. --Michael Bronski

Seeds sown in the soil of turmoilBooks of fiction and nonfiction, films, paintings, and museums abound in the ongoing ceaseless inspection of the atrocity and madness wrought by Hitler in Nazi Germany. It is an unfortunate fact that such turmoil gives rise to some of the best art in the years after the strife. Norman Page, in his brilliantly researched and written AUDEN AND ISHERWOOD: THE BERLIN YEARS, has selected two men of great significance in literature and poetry as his points of entry into studying the Berlin that seduced the world before it jolted nearly to an end. These portraits of Auden and Isherwood are really an examination of an historical time that altered the art world as inevitably as it altered our sense of the dangers of dictaorship.
Initally drawn to Berlin from the hallowed halls of English academe because of the rowdy free sex/hedonisitc atmosphere that had become Berlin, "Berlin meant Boys" and both our artists fled the England that sacrificed Oscar Wilde to find the open sexual freedom of the City of Sodom. Author Page gives us such a rich, fascinating ride through the places and faces of pre-war Berlin that we are finally allowed to see why Modernism started, why cinema became important, how artists such as Grosz and Dix and composers such as Weill and Stravinsky, scientists (Hirschfeld) and writers (Brecht) found such acrid colors for their creativity. Page is not confined to his title characters, though we learn more personal characteristics than any writer has dared to date: we are informed about Marlene Dietrich, Stephen Spender, Benjamin Britten, as well as a constellation of other characters encountered by them. This volume reads like a novel (not without some kinship to Isherwood's famed GOODBYE TO BERLIN), but its importance as a publication is its uncommonly thorough view of why Hitler rose, why the Berlin Wall was destined to be (and to fall), and why the center of the artistic universe was for a few short years the glossy, naughty Berlin.
This book is a must for those who want to understand the beginnings of sexual freedom, those fascinated by the inception of WW II, and for those who happen to love the poetry of W.H. Auden and the stories of Christopher Isherwood. Keep this book on your literary Reference Shelf.

A Good Book!This was a GREAT book! I liked it a lot because she managed to have a good mystery, but have other little plots, like seeing Ethan steal, etc. The only bad thing is that she just left the plot hanging. I LOVE her books and I hope she writes more Christie and Company Books. I was VERY disapointed when I looked for more Christie and company books, but couldn't find any. I LOVE mysteries, and this was one of THE BEST I've ever read. Please read this, and, Katherine Hall Page, if you are reading this, this fan REALLY wants more Christie and company books!

Remembering the railroad fan's consummate writerDavid P. Morgan's editorship and molding of "Trains" Magazine have outlasted him, a true testament to a visionary. He took the founder's concept and gave it discipline, vitality and credibility.
This volume draws together the best of his writing. Whether he is describing a mundane ride on a now-forgotten train or the thrill of seeing a streamliner at speed, his prose is riveting. The photos, while not Mr. Morgan's, all complement each story and open windows on the past, proving that black-and-white pictures can have as much impact as the best in color.
Thankfully, Mr. Drury has memorialized Mr. Morgan and his stellar contributions in this work, so that future generations who are attracted to the rails, and to the magzine, can understand who made it possible. (Would that Mr. Morgan's successors at the magazine remember his contributions as beautifully as Mr. Drury has.)

History That Reads Like a NovelSisters of Fortune is a biography of a family during the Civil War era. It reads like a novel. Three sisters who live in a small town in New Hampshire, left by their fortune-seeking father, try to maintain their upper-middle class life style on the little money he sends them while they fall in and out of love, have their hearts broken, and finally marry. The sisters write wonderful letters to their father telling him of their loves, travels, parties, friends, relations, neighbors, domestic affairs, money worries, etc. and begging him to come home. When the eldest daughter Lizzie marries and moves to New York, the younger daughters, Annie and Charlotte spend winters with her there and launch themselves in a round of parties and social events. Since their father had been a Congressman, they know and write about many of the famous men of the day--for example, Daniel Webster was a family friend. They write about the the slavery debates, the coming of the Civil War, and the growth of New York City as well as their own private affairs. A touching and charming book.

A first-rate educational resourceMr.Zimmerman's book is a well-written and thorough work suitable for classroom, corporate, and individual use. Broken up into a series of eight learning projects, "Web Page Essentials" imparts a great deal of important information to the reader. Unlike many other technical manuals, however, "Web Page Essentials" is extremely accessible and reader-friendly--objectives and technical terms are clearly spelled out and defined, and individual lessons/tutorials are enhanced with numerous graphics and explanatory captions. "Web Page Essentials" is truly a first-rate educational resource.
