Dogs. What can you say about dogs?
They are loyal, trustworthy, anxious to please, bubbling with personality and above all...man’s best friend.
Regardless of their size, breed or gender-dogs love humans and will do practically anything to please them.
Unlike cats, dogs crave human attention and bond to them for life.
No matter how long (one hour or one year) a dog owner is away from their beloved canine companion, dogs are overjoyed to see them again.
In Carlton Books’ new The Dog Book, by Annette Conn , dogs are transformed into wonderful works of art.
Pages feature individual dogs, of all breeds, that when popped out of their die-cut pages, stand up in silhouette, making the book a 3D gallery of canine goodness.
Full-color photos of the lovable critters come with informative text about each dog all wrapped up in a small hardbound book dog lovers will...love.
When I taught high school I was somewhat dismayed to learn that most history classes don’t delve too heavily into World War II history.
It’s a shame that current generations don’t full appreciate the magnitude of the war and what would have happened if the Allied Forces had not succeded in defeating the Axis enemy.
Just try to imagine what it must have been like for that generation of young people-most in their late teens or early twenties (many who had never left their farms or small towns) to suddenly find themselves knee-deep in blood and the horrors of war in a foreign land.
Scared, unable to speak the language and thrust into a nerve-wracking and body debilitating circumstance the young men and women who fought so gallantly laid down their lives so that we here in the USA and those in the Pacific and in Europe might have freedom.
In “Everything We Have” D-Day 6.6.44. Author Gordon H. “Nick” Mueller and the WWII: The National WWII Museum New Orleans, recount that famous day when Allied troops landed in Europe and faced off against the invading Nazi military machine.
This ‘museum in a book’ is filled with archival photos of weapons, actual battle front stills and graphs and maps complemented by first-hand accounts, personal recollections, historical facts, examinations of the various beaches stormed and much, much more.
The war, with all of its horror, bloodshed, triumphs, failures and how it affected troops on both sides of the conflict are brought alive in chilling detail.
This is a book schools need to provide/teach to students so that they may be introduced to one of the most important military conflicts in history.
The planet Mars has fascinated mankind ever since its discovery.
Wild speculations about intelligent life, alien cities and strange, unearthly phenomenon spur on the imaginations of writers scholars and scientists.
Often referred to as ‘the angry 'Red Planet’ Mars is our closest planetary neighbor and many believe at some point in its history it was very much like Earth.
In Rod Pyle’s Mars: The Missions That Have Transformed Our Understanding Of The Red Planet, readers are invited to traverse the past few decades and discover how mankind has gone about exploring this strange red orb.
Photos, satellite and probe sectional and enhanced visuals and charts and maps lay out the decades old exploration of Mars by NASA scientists and other space and science agencies.
Every aspect of the planet is examined from its various zones, atmosphere, gravity and dozens of other facts about the Red Planet.
For a first-hand examination of space and planetary exploration this is the book for any aspiring space scientists.
