All The Fun's In How You Say A Thing: An Explanation Of Meter & Versification
Timothy Steele

Ohio University Press, 1999

All the fun really is in how you say a thing.
I am currently a student in an undergraduate creative writing program, and I love (and write) free verse. A previous reviewer criticizes Steele for his "rejection" of free verse; this reason is the basis of his/her low rating of the book. Timothy Steele doesn't have ...

Discover Older Literature
If you are looking for something good to read, you might want to try this older American Literature by Conrad Richter, The Trees--what a great story. I have really enjoyed this, and it helped that years ago I had seen the film of The Awakening Land, so it was easy to ...

Ohio University Press, 2002

You must have this book!!
Dr. Brose's "Guide to EKG Interpretation" is a resource that all physicians in training should seriously consider acquiring. It is an extremely thorough book, and its size is deceptive. You wouldn't think a small pocket-size book could pack this much information! As ...

Conrad Richter

Ohio University Press, 1991

Historical fiction at its most authentic.
Conrad Richter's "The Fields" is the middle book of his "Awakening Land" trilogy, and is no less powerful than the first, "The Trees," with its authentic use of pioneer speech and dialects, and its realistic depiction of the triumphs and tragedies of real Americans. ...

Alexander The Great: A Novel
Nikos Kazantzakis

Ohio University Press, 1982

A winner in all aspects
First I would like to mention that I have read all of Kazantzakis's work in Greek, and most of it in English. The translation of this book if very good, and most of the meaning of the original text is properly conveyed. Kazantzakis aspect of Alexander the Great is a ...
  
  











  



  
The Last of the Husbandmen: A Novel of Farming Life
Gene Logsdon

Ohio University Press, 2008

Not Just a Novel...
Gene Logsdon has hit a homer again with not just a novel, but an enjoyable morality tale parroting the Last of the Mohicans. It could be the Last of the American Farmers if people don't wake up to what's going on in the agricultural world around us. Read all of ...
  
  











  



  
Ever Present Origin: Part One: Foundations Of The Aperspectival World (Englis Series, No 1)
Jean Gebser

Ohio University Press, 1986

Gebser's Magnum Opus
This book is not a light read. However it is a fascinating read penned by one of Europe's hidden philosophical treasures: Jean Gebser. The Ever-Present Origin is a translation of _Ursprung und Gegenwart_, a book which was published in German in two parts around 1949 ...
  
  











  



  
Mound Builders
Robert Silverberg

Ohio University Press, 1986

Brings light to a mysterious subject
I am fascinated by historical structures and some of the most interesting to me are those made primarily of heaped up soil. Though the building material is basic, the great work involved makes one wonder about the motivation required and the purpose of the builders. In ...
  
  











  



  
DEATH OF CONTRACT: SECOND EDITION
GRANT GILMORE

Ohio State University Press, 1995

Saved my neck in law school--and I enjoyed it, too
When I took Contracts as a first-year law student, I read the cases, went to class, and didn't have the faintest idea what it all meant. It seemed to be a mind-numbing mix of similar facts with different conclusions. Then I read this book and--voila--it all seemed to ...
  
  











  



  
Blood of the Prodigal (Ohio Amish Mystery Series #1)
P. L. Gaus

Ohio University Press, 1999

Enthralling!
P.L. Gaus is quite a storyteller, and his first novel is a page-turner! He has a way of moving the action along and seamlessly blending in bits of local color and culture that compel the reader to stay with the book, just for the sheer pleasure of watching the story ...
  
  











  



  
LANGUAGE FILES 9TH EDITION: MATERIALS FOR AN INTRODUCTION TO LANGUAG AND LINGUISTICS
OHIO STATE UNIV OSU DEPT LINGUISTICS

Ohio State University Press, 2004

A Good Reference!
This book gave excellent explanations for learning linguistics. I enjoyed reading this book and working on the helpful exercises at the end of each section. I ended up learning about linguistics without an instructor as a result of this smartly designed textbook.
