The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge
AuthorCarlos Castaneda
ISBN0671227424
You may find this book has a lot of chaff on how they prepare peyote and other drugs, mundane descriptions in diary... yet when you less expect it, they hit you with a boulder of wisdom that leaves you freezed.

Kalamazoo Gals: A Story of extraordinary Women and Gibson's "Banner" Guitars of WWII
AuthorJohn Thomas
ISBN0983082782
I am midway through this book and just have to say that it's an entertaining and fascinating read! The author's self-effacing style and heartfelt manner in which he conducted his interviews with these "gals" in their 80s and 90s has really kept my attention. The author has brought history to life with...

Black Elk: The Sacred Ways of a Lakota
AuthorWallace Black Elk
ISBN0062500740
I wanted to like this book more than 3 stars... it probably deserves more than that. But I fall into the category of people Black Elk refers to as "educated". Which means I've been to school, college, etc and some of the more basic truths have probably been schooled right out of me. I did like the ideas he talks...
The Illustrated Encyclopaedia of Arthurian Legends
AuthorRonan Coghlan
ISBN1566198763
Often plundered and even plagiarised – frequently online and most notably in print by Mike Dixon-Kennedy in his Arthurian Myth and Legend: an A-Z of People and Places (1996) – this was the first really accessible dictionary of Arthurian personages, locales and other miscellanea. While not an...

Loving John
AuthorMay Pang
ISBN0446379166
Reading this book, the phrase that keeps coming to mind is "what a mess."

If you're a Beatles person, chances are you know about John's 18-month "lost weekend" in which he was separated from Yoko. What you may not know is that Yoko herself orchestrated this "weekend," even handpicking a young...
The Beatles: Complete Scores
AuthorThe Beatles
ISBN0793518326
A 40th Birthday gift.... the ultimate in such gifts for an absolute Beatle nut!

There are very few Beatles songs that I do not love.... perhaps "Why don't we do it in the road?", "Revolution 9" and "Blue Jay Way" come the closest to accomplishing that task.

But as for my favourites......

The Great Anglo-Boer War
AuthorByron Farwell
ISBN0393306593
This is an amazing book! I identify with the Boers in several things. In fact, one reason why I wanted to learn more about the Boer War is because I think there is much to learn about how and why a primarily Dutch Reformed, family-oriented, dominion-focused, and well-armed country went to war with one of...
