Captain America: War & Remembrance

Roger Stern, John Byrne, ...

Marvel Comics, 2007

Arguably the best run of Captain America...
This collects the full 9-issue run (247-255 in 1980) on Captain America by Roger Stern and John Byrne. As far as I'm concerned, these are arguably the best Captain America issues of all-time. First of all, Byrne was at his artistic peak (circa his work on X-Men), ...

Harper Perennial, 1992

Borderline Disorder Personality?
I bought this book primarily to find out Silverman's take on Poe's being found (just before his death) in clothes that did not belong to him (as indicated in a video in the Great Authors series). That odd fact, combined with the alter egos he created in stories like ...

This is another page-turning, suspenseful mystery by this author. Her fans, as well as those who enjoy books by Mary Higgins Clark, will not be disappointed. The author is clearly a master of this genre. When Caroline Corday lost her five year old daughter Hayley ...

Grains, Greens, and Grated Coconuts: Recipes and Remembrances of a Vegetarian Legacy

Ammini Ramachandran

iUniverse, Inc., 2007

Authentic and amazing
This is a really remarkable book, self-published and free of hype. There are no glitzy photographs of the food, which is a shame because I'll bet it's beautiful, but there is a pithy history of Kerala and then there are the recipes. They are exquisite, and the ...
