The classic backgammon book
This was the book I learned backgammon with in the 1970s. It doesn't have modern 1990s theory but still provides solid all-around advice on a variety of topics. The book's strengths are its discussions of probabilities, back games, late positions, and unusual plays. There is also a long history of the game and a lot of discussion of chouettes and other variations. The modern expert might not agree with the opening moves or the doubling theory, but all in all there's plenty there for newcomers to learn. ... Read more

Another lesson from Oswald to simply be still...
The writings of Oswald Chambers have long made me a dedicated reader and student of the black and white simplicity of his understanding of how God works in our lives. This second gathering of the best of all his books is yet another example of just how deeply in-tune Oswald was to his path...and offers a reminder with every subject listed. "You can never give another person that which you have found," Chambers wrote, "but you can make him homesick for what you have." You will definitely want this. Shelia...Fendersac@AOL.com ...

A for effort, and five stars for research!
Although this book could be a bit of a headache for anyone who's grown accustomed to an easy pulp-fiction read, it is nevertheless impeccably researched. The material presented, everything from court documents to official correspondence to casual correspondence, presents a startling factual picture of "the ties that bind", and manages to avoid the Usenet-style conspiratorial bent that shows up in most other books documenting the strange Dulles-Kennedy-Bush triangle. American history at its strangest!
Five stars for tracking down and formatting the immense volume of material in this book, and five stars for having the couage to print it. A bargain at any price- in fact I'll trade my copy for a nice Texas gusher, if anyone's interested...

Why Are So Many People Happy on EBAY?
I find this volume well researched and extremly incriminating. Why are so many people happy with this volume on Ebay. Adamson has many positive reviews on Ebay. Everyone who has purchased the volume has left a positive review, it seems on EBAY at user I.D. at ciajfk.com. If it is so hard to follow, why are they happpy? C.W.

NEWSPAPER WRITER STEVE PEREZ COAUTHORED BOOK
In response to negative review, Steve Perez worked at the Santa Cruz Sentinel for about 10 years. Perez wrote on the homicides in Santa Cruz County. The Sentinel is owned by a division of Dow Jones Inc, and one of the largest stockholder is Mary Bancroft's daughter under the Jane Bancroft trust. Mary Bancroft was a CIA agent and she was the lover of CIA Director, Warren Commissioner Allen Dulles and CIA assest Henry Luce. If you had read first half of the book and gave up you would have read Perez's work. There may be a couple of type'os possibly because when using Quark Express I had to take manuscript to Kinko's and another high grade printer. When I load program it reformatted the text for the entire volume. I went through to clean them up. Have had few complaints since 1996. Many in the JFK assassination community have praised the volume for it's damning evidence against on George de Mohrenschildt's ties to Prescott and George Bush Sr. Bruce Campbell Adamson ...

Powerful
This book really ministered to me concerning revival, and if you are a fan of folks like Leonard Ravenhill, you will enjoy this book. The only part of the book I found rather weak was the last couple chapters that were a large collection of sniplets from the personal Journal of Oswald J Smith. In my opinion, they did not add much to the book, and sometimes it made me wonder if Oswald J Smith really was sound in his faith. Overall though, good book.

Amazing Book.. A Must READ!!!
"Had I the wealth of a millionaire I would put "The Revival We Need" in every Christian home on this continent and confidently look for a revival which would sweep round the world." - Jonathan Goforth

I have read the book three times and I imagine I will read it many more times. I believe as Jonathan Goforth that this book needs to be read by all christians in these days. May God grant us a revival of religion and an influx of precious souls into His church before Jesus comes back. ... Read more

Let me make up my own mind!
I was very disappointed with this book. It could have been a very interesting story - Lee Harvey Oswald's mother's point of view. However, it was written not too long after President Kennedy was assassinated (1965), and Ms. Stafford obviously still had those events fresh in her mind when she interviewed Mrs. Oswald. Ms. Stafford's opinions of Mrs. Oswald were biased and she failed to allow Mrs. Oswald's point of view to come through. She refused to let the reader have his or her opinion of Mrs. Oswald. This was a total failure, since we may have been able to possibly understand (even a fraction) another side of Lee Harvey Oswald. As far as history is concerned, everyone has a right to his or her side of the story. ... Read more

Telling It Like It Is
Too many times christian writers try to make us believe that if we are good little boys and girls God will pave a way for us with rose petals. Not so Oswald Chambers in this book. He lets us know that life has ups and plunging downs; horrors as well as ecstacies. The trick for the christian is to develope a day by day realistic relationship with God and to depend on him every step of the way to not only take you through these times, but to lift you up as you go. Oswald does this by an analysis of the book of Ecclasiastes. Few are brave enough to tackle this but this author does it in a very down to earth, nuts and bolts fashion. It gave me a springboard from which to go in my mind and begin to think in a new way about the things that have happened in my life. Through the whole book the author himself shines through as a real three dimensional person and not just a preacher or teacher isulated behind a pulpit or sitting somewhere writing a book. He is right in the thick of things, hot sweaty body, next to hot sweaty body. This gives his words authenticity. ... Read more
