Heavy

I would have liked too seen more info on Heavy -Runner himself. Like for example where did he get his name.

I was impressed by the details of early problems and the way solutions to them by the company were presented.

Great learning series
Teaches you many essential riffs used in heavy metal and hard rock! Also touches on soloing. At the end of the book, a whole song is constructed using a typical heavy metal progression. Great!

I was amused the way Chris and Cec decided to write this book. They probably said, "well we experienced everything together so let's write together but from our own point of view". So, this they did, each taking turns in describing events along the way and what a long way they went. I found myself experiencing what they were feeling. Chris in her own zany way, self indulgent I thought at first but I later accepted her graphic gripes as trying to help the reader feel what she was feeling and this did come out in lots of amusing anecdotes and stories and confirmed to me that this was an enjoyable but difficult journey . Cec though, a different kettle of fish. He was more rounded in his descriptions, seeming more to take it in his stride but find later that it is a mere facade and there's a lot more going on underneath. His writing is comfortable and concise and feel there's a lot more he could achieve with this medium This is a good read and feel I shall enjoy the book on the second read. They were brave to do what they did. I truly appreciate all that they achieved knowing I could not have done so. They have given me the feeling that I have been on the journey with them but without the hassle. Well done!

For anyone who loves old time tractors and agrcultural machinery this book is a must.

This book contains a lot of very useful information about a number of industrial catalytic processes. Anybody studying catalytic processes should own this book. It has been a valuable help for my research.

i think this is the best book in the world, i didn't buy it, but one of my dad's friends gave it to me. I'm such a fan of GNR, it is not even funny, so i realy enjoyed the book, i can't single out any spot that i like the most, beacause all of it is great

gnr is the best!!

In similar genre as that classic "The Cult of The Big Rigs", this book is a valued addition to my collection, covering the turbulent days of Big Rigs... the 1970's in USA, and more particularly, the opinions and feelings of the truckers at that time. The "fuel crisis" features heavily on their minds. Today one might wonder what all the fuss was about back then.

Don't let the lack of color photos put you off. There are stacks of black and white pictures on 170 pages and some probably look better that way.

The preface to this book, first printed in 1977, reads " There are a lot of people who misrepresent truckers, like in songs, or in magazines, or in movies. As far as I am concerned, they're just makin' a buck on us. Your book better quote us right."

The book presents both an objective view and also captures the mood of truckers and trucking at that time. Seventies nostalgia.

Heavy Breathing is a collection from one of the most original poets from the Beat world. Although affiliated with the beats, Whalen's poetry differs significantly from that of Kerouac, Ginsberg, or Gary Snyder. The poetry is direct and simple, moving and often very funny. Through Whalen's poetry, one can get inside his head, jump around and observe the firing of his synapses.

It is a wonderful collection of previously published poems. Four works constitute this book: Severance Pay, Scenes of Life at the Capital, The Kindness of Strangers, and Enough Said.
