| 1. |  | The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt (Modern Library Paperbacks) from Random House Trade Paperbacks Price: $8.09 Customer Review:  Bottom line: this was one of the finest, if not the finest, books I've ever read. Having read this book's successor, "Theodore Rex," previously (which I reviewed favorably), I figured this book would be similarly dense and, though enjoyable, somewhat challenging at times. Nothing could have... |

| 2. |  | The Day of the Triffids (20th Century Rediscoveries) from Modern Library Price: $7.98 Customer Review:  Over a week passed since I got a message that the books had been sent. I emailed an inquiry, but got no answer. After I received the books, I realized they came from overseas. If I had known this I would have been more patient. This information should be made more clear. The books were in... |

| 3. |  | Theodore Rex from Random House Price: $4.60 Customer Review: This book seems overwhelming at first glance, but its hard to put it down. Reads like a novel, entertaining, and relevant to the present political issues. Great food for thought about political parties and power, corporate power, foreign policy, and great statesmanship. A must read for all political... |

| 5. |  | The Education of Henry Adams (Modern Library) from Modern Library Price: $17.40 Customer Review:  Who am I to say that this is not a great book? Numerous scholars have called it one of the best non-fiction books ever. But man, what a grind it is. Now that I've plowed through about half of the book, I'm throwing in the towel. To my tiny, contemporary brain, this book is hopelessly ponderous... |

| 6. |  | Beethoven: The Universal Composer (Eminent Lives) from Harper Perennial Price: $5.99 Customer Review: Edmund Morris has produced a readable and enlightening biography of one of the great classical composers, Ludwig von Beethoven. His work was approachable to a non-expert (such as me). Morris does his best to work through the many previous biographies of Beethoven, provides a discussion of what makes... |

| 7. |  | Ten Acres Enough: Small-Farm Self-Sufficiency Through High-Quality Produce. A Back-to-the-Land Adventure from 1864 from Norton Creek Press Price: $12.27 Customer Review: Robert Plamondon updated this book to todays economics which made it much more useful. Many of the concerns of 1864 are just as important today when thinking about how to make the small acreage pay off or be enough to support the family. Since reading this book, I have more organized questions about... |

| 8. |  | Dutch: A Memoir of Ronald Reagan from Random House Price: $0.49 Customer Review: As has been widely commented, historian Edmund Morris uses an extremely unconventional device in this Reagan bio by framing the narrative as his (sometimes dramatized and fictive) recollections as a character who weaves in and out of Reagan's life. Yet Morris is also meticulous about annotating all... |

| 9. |  | Ten Acres Enough - The Classic 1864 Guide to Independent Farming from Courthope Press Price: $22.84 Customer Review: good book - very interesting - some ideas are outdated but the story makes you want to cash in the retirement and buy a small place on 10 acres |

| 11. |  | Power and the Presidency from PublicAffairs Price: $8.68 Customer Review: This is a volume that I will keep nearby so I can refer to it whenever I want to remember something I read or share a passage with an interested party. Power and the Presidency is a great little book...short, easy to read, and informative. I didn't know about the severe setting and conditions under... |

| 12. |  | The Rough Riders (Modern Library War) from Modern Library Price: $8.00 Customer Review: Teddy Roosevelt was one of the most inspiring men in American history for a variety of reasons---and this book captures them all, from politician and military leader to writer and conservationalist. This is a book all schoolchidren should read...so don't expect public education to do so. |

| 14. |  | America's Library: The Story of the Library of Congress, 1800-2000 Price: $20.47 Customer Review:  This book presents an interesting overview of 200 years of the Library of Congress. "Overview" describes its strengths and its limitations. It does give a sense of the library's place in our nation's historical timeline. It is a worthwhile read along with Presidents: All You Need to Know to see how... |
