Josanie's War: A Chiricahua Apache Novel (American Indian Literature and Critical Studies Series) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Josanies's War is one of the best novels I've ever read on the final Chiricahua outbreak of 1885 under Geronimo, Naiche and band leaders like Josanie. The author appears to know the country very well and blends history and fiction together in way I've rarely seen. Chiricahua Apache beliefs are handled well and with respect and these people come alive as living, breathing human beings. The narrative moves swiftly and being Apache I see many of the places described in the novel clearly. There are one or two mistakes but they are minor and the average reader would never catch them so I won't dwell on these. A joy to read and part of my permanent collection of great novels on tribal American people.

Uncovering the Mysterious Woolly Mammoth Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great book for young earth creationists. The evolutionists have tons of books for children to promote their faith. There are many fewer for those of us who belive in the literal interpretation of the Bible. So don't begrudge a good book that promotes our views. If you choose to put your faith in evolution then just skip this book. Those of us who put our faith in God will be glad to have another book to help us teach our children.

Woolly mammoths have fascinated adults and children alike for decades. How did so many get preserved in ice, why did they go extinct, and how did they live?These are questions that many have asked, and the answers given are usually in line with an evolutionary world view. But is this the only answer? Is there a better explanation for the evidences found in the remains of these unique creatures? What is a believer in the young age of the earth to do when confronted with these questions?Author Mike Oard gives answers to these questions for young readers. He also gives fascinating facts about these hairy, elephant-like creatures, in this sequel to Life in the Great Ice Age. Oard tells the story of how they disappeared from the earth as a result of entrapment in the ice and snow that resulted from the flood of Noah's day. Complete with beautiful, full-color illustrations from award-winning painter Bill Looney (illustrator, The True Story of Noah's Ark), this book fills an important niche within the scientific community.
