Wedding Planning For REAL People.......2001-12-29
FINALLY! A book that doesn't assume I work as a designer for Martha Stewart Weddings. It offers guidance to all with such wonderful common sense (which I've found all TOO uncommon in today's wedding guides!) This book does not tell the bride that she can do anything she wants becasue after all it's HER day. Ms. Shaw comes straight to the point and tells you the truth. Just like a best friend. Only this best friend knows exactly how to word the invitations and seat the groom's family. And this book is actually funny! The examples of faux pas are excellent reminders of just how ridiculous and childish people can get when it comes to weddings. This book will help you make your day special, AND help you expertly manage the delicate situations that will surely arise along the way. Above all, its humor will remind you that weddings are supposed to be fun. This is a great gift for a bride-to-be.
A great reference book for everyone involved in a wedding`.......2001-11-25
I am getting married in July and my sister is getting married in August. She is my maid of honor and I will be her matron of honor. She bought a lot of wedding ettiquette/planning books that we have both been consulting, and this is by far the best. The author has obviously been involved in planning many weddings, from the most elaborate to the most simple, and she offers great advice. A must-read for the bride who wants as many personal touches as possible, but also wants to know what's acceptable -- and what's not. A very funny read, as well!
Witty and Helpful Book.......2001-09-20
This wedding book is very well done. The best part of the book is the fact that it uses humor. In an age when weddings have become the focus of obsessive mothers and brides that are out of touch with reality, Shaw uses humor to foucs on keeping the wedding tasteful and nice. The book is full of tons of practical advice. The use of humor makes it very readable for grooms!

I read all four books. They were great. Iwould like to find more like these.
NOW AMERICANS..........2004-01-02
This is the last volume in a quartet of books by one of Sweden's greatest authors. Translated from Swedish into English, this work of historical fiction was originally published in 1961. Aptly titled, "Last Letter Home", it is the final epic in a four part opus, the first three of which are "The Emigrants", "Unto a Good Land", and "The Settlers". One should read them in the order in which they were written for maximum reading pleasure, even though each book can stand on its own.
In the first volume, "The Emigrants", the author details the emigration of a Swedish family to the New World, grounding it in the reasons for the exodus of so many Swedes from their mother country in the middle of the 19th century. The focus of the first book in this four part opus is on the family, relatives, and friends of Karl Oscar Nilsson, a peasant farmer who unceasingly worked his farm, only to find that, no matter what he did, he could not progress and would continue to live on the cusp of total poverty. The focus of the first book is on their life in Sweden. Gathering up family and friends of the family, the Nilssons decide to take the monumental step of making a fresh start by emigrating to the new world, specifically the United States of America.
The second volume, "Unto a Good Land", focuses on the arrival of the Nilsson family and friends in the United States of America. It details their journey from New York, a journey that was to take them across the Midwest by rail, steamer, and foot, to arrive in the wilds of what would one day be the State of Minnesota. It is in this wilderness that the Nilsson family and friends would homestead and struggle to make a new home. The author regales the reader with the travails this hardy group of settlers would encounter in their efforts to create by the sweat of their brow a new home in the wilderness. The early struggles of the Nilsson family to succeed in what was an unknown frontier is engagingly chronicled.
In "The Settlers", the author continues the story of the Nilsson family and friends. It is the story of a family who struggled to prevail in Minnesota, an alien land of harsh, inhospitable winters and scorching summers. The book continues to chronicle their lives and their adaptation to the adopted country that they would forever call home. It tells the story of the divided Nilsson brothers, each of whom would forge a path alien to the other. The author hones in on the fact that the early settlers were subject to being taken advantage of by the unscrupulous. He highlights the mass migration of disaffected Swedes to Minnesota and details their contribution to the prosperity of that part of the country. The author shows how these early Swedish settlers consolidated themselves into a thriving, bustling community, despite the obstacles and hardships that were to be their lot in the early years of their struggle to make the new land yield to their will.
This last volume, "Last Letter Home" is a bittersweet continuation of the story of the Nilsson family, as well as that of their friends. With the fabric of their lives now firmly woven into the fabric of their adopted country and with the birth of a new generation, they have earned the right to call themselves Americans. With their destiny now firmly intertwined with that of their adopted country, they face new challenges in this new country. Having conquered the wilderness and having achieved a measure of stability and comfort, they believe that the worst is over, only to find themselves thrust into a Civil War. Moreover, the blood of their friends and family would be shed, as a Sioux uprising, an angry outgrowth of broken treaties and governmental promises, wreaks havoc in Minnesota and its surrounding environs, a region mostly inhabited by Swedish settlers. Still, the Nilssons prevail and leave their mark, not only on the pages of these books but in the heart of the reader.
I have enjoyed all four volumes of this well-written and vibrant epic work. The author, a master storyteller, has woven a captivating tapestry alive with period detail and beloved characters. These are books that those who enjoy historical fiction will love reading.
One of the best novels that has been translated into English.......2001-08-23
This is one of those novels you savor. A novel you will never forget. This one is translated from the Swedish and it loses nothing in the translation. It is helpful, however, to read the three books before this novel. It is the fourth book in the saga, although it isn't absolutely necessary. This novel holds up very well on its own. Thank You!
A touching finale.......2001-04-21
The Last Letter Home follows the experiences of Karl Oskar Nilsson, and his wife Kristina, from 1860 to 1890. The American Civil War has come, and Karl Oscar agonizes over whether or not to join in the defense of his new country. However, things become a good deal worse when the Dakota Indians become tired of the treatment they are receiving at the hands of the United States, and begin a war against the white inhabitants of Minnesota. Life goes on after these upheavals, but not without costs. This bittersweet book follows the emigrants through to the very end, as the new generation grows up and becomes Americans.
This book is the fourth and final book of the Emigrants series. Crowning the masterful first three books, this book continues to show Vilhelm Moberg as one of the great authors of the Twentieth Century. As before, the characters are so human, that I found myself suffering with them, and sharing their joy. I wish that I could do justice to these books, but fear that I am not eloquent enough to convey just how wonderful they are. If I could recommend any books above all others that I have reviewed, it would be the Emigrants books. Please consider reading these books!
[For those of you with young children, I would like to recommend the Kirsten books in the American Girls series. Written for young readers (primarily girls), it tells the story of a Swedish family that immigrates to Minnesota in 1854.]
Book Description
War letters are, by their nature, intensely emotional, honest and heartfelt documents. They are letters like no others, written when the extreme peril of battle forces one to look at life in an entirely new way. Moments and memories are cherished with an urgency they hadn't been before. The future is a dream.
Especially poignant among war letters are the last letters home. These messages may express many things--hope, pride, fear, exhaustion, love--but they take on an extraordinary new weight when the reader brings to them a foreknowledge of what has occurred. The letters in this LIFE book, from Robert Wise's comic pick-me-ups to his mom to Michelle Witmer's and Rachel Bosveld's dramatic accounts of action in Iraq to Jesse Givens's passionate last words to his young family--a letter that he told his wife not to open unless he was killed--give a thoroughly human face to the war in Iraq. Beyond the statistics are these lives, bravely lived.
In Last Letters Home, fourteen families share their stories with LIFE's readers and come before LIFE's cameras, just as several of them participated in the HBO/New York Times project of the same name, which has produced a documentary to air on Veteran's Day, November 11. It took courage for them to publicly recall bygone sons, daughters, spouses and parents. Courage--theirs and the courage of those now departed--is on every page of this book.

Last Letters Home.......2004-11-21
I read this book on a flight from Houston to Raliegh. The young man sitting next to me was riveted. He read the book over my shoulder. He wondered how I could read a book like this after I told him my son was in the 3rd Infantry Division. My son was in Iraq from March 2003 to August 2003 and returns in January.
I told him books like these are important in keeping us in touch with the reality of what we face over there. All Americans should feel the pain along with the families of the soldiers who have died. This book brings home the painful reality.
I, too, was compelled to write our story for this very reason. Our son came home and for that we are forever grateful. Yet I want people to know the complexity of emotion that raged through my family while he was there. My book can be found on Amazon and is called "Letters Home - From 9/11 to Operation Iraqi Freedom A Military Mom Shares Her Family's Story of Patriotism, Courage and Love."
Thank you to the families who so painfully have shared their lives with us.
Astonishing, meaningful, heart-wrenching.......2004-11-12
When I was a student of political science, I had a professor who read to us letters home from the war front. He had a collection of pieces from lots of different countries, but messages were remarkably the same - human beings caught up in situations and conflict far beyond their making and often beyond our comprehension, not writing for king and country, but writing of home, writing to home.
This collection follows many fine examples of this genre, from fourteen families; these letters are made all the more meaningful and poignant by the fact that their authors didn't return home alive. The concerns are very basic, but take on a palpable feel to them for the reader today -- care for home, family, plans for the future, honest emotion including fear. This collection spans the range of people from the most recent conflict -- it shows that many of the aspects of war are depressingly the same, no matter what historical era one is in.
The courage of the families to put forward this kind of emotional part of their lives is matched only by the courage of the men and women who themselves lost their lives. The book, companion to a documentary produced by HBO, strives to be non-political; far from being an indictment of the current administration, it focuses instead upon the people involved at the 'ground level' of the conflict. Many of the families are in fact supporters of President Bush, firm in their convictions that the sacrifice of their loved ones was done in the name of democracy and the country.
There is a forward by Senator John McCain, himself a veteran with experiences to tell, but even his family did not suffer the fate of receiving a last letter home from him.
On this Veteran's Day, originally Armistice Day, after the war-to-end-all-wars (that in fact did not), it is proper to remember also those involved in the current struggles, which includes families back home, whose connection is largely through letters, and whose prayers are always that there will be another letter soon, that no letter becomes the last letter home.
Read a part of our current affairs that will become a part of history in these letters, from the perspective of those actually doing the work in Iraq.

Product Description
Letters offer a deeply personal perspective of the war, and remind us that every one of the hundreds of thousands of brave men that died during the four brutal years of the Civil War was someone's father, or son, or brother, or husband. Numerous first-hand accounts of the harsh realities of war have been published, often including or comprised of the letters of survivors. This unique volume contains the final correspondence written by brave soldiers that did not survive the conflict: some died on the battlefield during combat; others understood they were about to die of wounds received in battle and were able to counsel their family regarding their final disposition. What is the price of freedom? Anyone that has ever asked that question should read these letters. A bibliography, photographs, and an index enhance the text.

Read This Book !.......2005-07-31
On a two-hour drive home across the Mississippi Delta, I began to think again about this book I read about a month ago and realized I really need to recommend it to others. Each soldier's story presented life and events of that time in a way that I had never experienced it. The soldiers' actual words along with the information the author provides about the family and the events occurring at the time of the letters made a powerful impact. Although the disease and death descriptions were wrenching, I did not want the book to end. I will never forget Thomas Morrison, the Sultana, Thomas H. Brown...well, the whole thing.
The man in the picture.......2005-05-24
It is almost impossible for us to "see" the men who fought the Civil War. Very few of us have talked to a Union soldier or even someone who had talked to one. With each year, the number of greats increases before grandpa as these men slip away. Photography was a toddler during the war and the stiff formal posed pictures taken do not help either. The carefully posed "candid shots" look almost as formal as their portraits and that blur, in the back, is someone who moved. We cannot see them marching past in movies, smoking and laughing as we can soldiers of the World Wars. No matter how many books we read, war games we play or movies we see, these men stay stiff and formal frozen in time. This removes the human aspect from the war, costing us a real understanding of the feelings it invoked. A cannon ball flying through the ranks was much more than a subtraction from regimental strength or an increase in casualties. Real men, fathers, husbands, sons died or were maimed. They had hopes, dreams, suffered lonely days, laughed and sang. This book is a step toward recapturing 21 of the Union dead, restoring flesh and blood to that formal picture, while telling the story of the war in very personal terms.
Mr. Crawford has struck a balance between history and humanity in this book. The format is simple and elegant; each chapter is one Union Soldier's story told in a simple way that helps us understand him. In some cases, the story contains information from his letters in others the last letter is the focus. Six officers and 15 enlisted men, important to their families but not to the overall history of the war, populate this book. They die in big battles, skirmishes, as POWs, from illness and possible foul play. Some anticipate their death and those letters show how brave a man can be. Expecting to die, these men went forward determined to do their duty no matter what their fears. Others are struck down unawares. They write home saying they are fine but within weeks are dead from illness or an unexpected bullet.
Reading this book has brought home how little armies at war change over the years. From the American Civil War to Viet Nam to now, lonely soldiers far from home determined to do their duty write letters home. This book drives home that point not by preaching but by showing us the man behind the picture.
Superb!!! A 'must have' for any Civil War Buff.......2005-05-20
I recently received my copy of 'Proud To Say I Am A Union Soldier' by Franklin R. Crawford. What a profound book! There are 21 Chapters, each one focuses on a specific soldier. You get to know those soldiers 'personally'. Some died on the battlefield, others of disease. Do you know how a person suffers when they have Malaria or some of the other diseases?? No? You will when you read this book. You will read the last letters written home to families, some very sad and some offering strength to the folks back home. At the end of each chapter are the footnotes. There is a Bibliography in the back of the book along with the Index. You'll want this book for your personal library.
I was so impressed with it, I ordered a copy for my local library.

Two of the best books ever written.......2005-03-08
Vilhelm Moberg (1898-1973) was one of Sweden's leading men of letters, and is chiefly remembered today for his peerless emigrant tetralogy. These four books tell the story of Karl Oskar Nilsson, a Swedish farmer, who decides to emigrate to the United States to find a better future for his children. But, emigration is hard, and building a new life in a strange land is harder still. These books spoke to all Swedes who saw family members leave and never return, and they speak to Americans whose ancestors made similar voyages.
Overall, I found these books to be very moving. The characters are so human, that I found myself suffering with them, and sharing their joy. I wish that I could do justice to these books, but fear that I am not eloquent enough to convey just how wonderful they are. If I could recommend any books above all others that I have reviewed, it would be the Emigrants books. Please consider reading this volume and The Emigrants I and II!
Here are what the two books contained in this volume are about:
The Settlers - This book follows the experiences of Karl Oskar Nilsson, and his wife Kristina, from 1853 to 1860. In 1853 Karl Oskar is surprised to find something new in the woods around his homestead - a neighbor. The mass migration of Swedes has begun, and soon there is a community, with a schoolhouse and a church. Karl Oskar's younger brother Robert returns from the California gold rush, seemingly broken in health and spirit, and reluctant to say what happened to him. It is a bittersweet time of change, a time of gaining and a time of losing.
The Last Letter Home - This final book follows the experiences of Karl Oskar Nilsson, and his wife Kristina, from 1860 to 1890. The American Civil War has come, and Karl Oscar agonizes over whether or not to join in the defense of his new country. However, things become a good deal worse when the Dakota Indians become tired of the treatment they are receiving at the hands of the United States, and begin a war against the white inhabitants of Minnesota. Life goes on after these upheavals, but not without costs. This bittersweet book follows the emigrants through to the very end, as the new generation grows up and becomes Americans.
[For those of you with young children, I would like to recommend the Kirsten books in the American Girls series. Written for young readers (primarily girls), it tells the story of a Swedish family that immigrates to Minnesota in 1854.]
THE SWEDISH STATE OF MINNESOTA..........2005-03-05
This is an epic work by its Swedish author, who is considered to be one of Sweden's greatest writers. Translated from Swedish into English, this beautifully written work of historical fiction contains the last two books in a four part fictional opus on the nineteenth century Swedish emigrant experience, "The Settlers", which was first published in 1956, and "Last Letter Home", which was first published in 1961. The first two books in this critically acclaimed quartet are "The Emigrants" and "Unto a Good Land". In these wonderful books, the Swedish emigrant experience is viewed through the lives of the fictional Nilsson family and their friends. One should read these books in the order in which they were written for maximum reading pleasure, even though each book can stand on its own.
In "The Settlers", the third part of the author's opus, he continues the saga of the Nilsson family and their friends. It is the story of a group of Swedes who emigrated to the United States and then struggled to prevail in Minnesota, an alien land of harsh, inhospitable winters and scorching summers. The book continues to chronicle their lives and their adaptation to the adopted country that they would forever call home. It tells the story of the divided Nilsson brothers, each of whom would forge a path alien to the other. The author hones in on the fact that the early settlers were subject to being taken advantage of by the unscrupulous. He highlights the mass migration of disaffected Swedes to Minnesota and details their contribution to the prosperity of that part of the country. The author shows how these early Swedish settlers consolidated themselves into a thriving, bustling community, despite the obstacles and hardships that were to be their lot in the early years of their struggle to make the new land yield to their will.
The fourth and last part, "Last Letter Home", is a bittersweet continuation of the story of the Nilsson family, as well as that of their friends. With the fabric of their lives now firmly woven into the tapestry of their adopted country and with the birth of a new generation, they have earned the right to call themselves Americans. With their destiny now firmly intertwined with that of their adopted country, they face new challenges in this new country. Having conquered the wilderness and having achieved a measure of stability and comfort, they believe that the worst is over, only to find themselves thrust into a Civil War. Moreover, the blood of their friends and family would be shed, as a Sioux uprising, an angry outgrowth of broken treaties and governmental promises, wreaks havoc in Minnesota and its surrounding environs, a region mostly inhabited by Swedish settlers. Still, the Nilssons prevail and leave their mark, not only on the pages of these books but in the heart of the reader.
I have enjoyed all four volumes of this well-written and vibrant epic work. The author, a master storyteller, has woven a captivating tapestry alive with period detail and beloved characters. These are books that those who enjoy historical fiction will love reading. Bravo!

My very favorite book ever.......2000-07-12
My grandmother gave this beautiful book to me for Christmas the year it was published. (I believe it was 1980 or 1981). I feel madly in love and am still madly in love today. I re-read this book every year in October, it has become a most beloved ritual. I took a chance in early 1992 and wrote to John Nichols and was I ever surprised! He wrote me back. I have two copies and now that they have a new edition, I plan on buying it too! I have a hard back signed copy that I treasure and I know it is authentic because the signature is exactly the way he signed his letter to me. Read this book and plan to be thoroughly enchanted. I was and still am after almost 20 years.

Mr. Jager perfectly captures the rhythm of this small town........1996-06-10
Ron Jager has used his considerable store of dry wit and keen
sense of observation to create a book that wonderfully portrays life
in a small New Hampshire town.
His book is consistently entertaining, whether meditating on
nature as observed near his pond or contemplating the ups and downs
of life in a town that still practices the most basic form
of participatory democracy - the annual town meeting. Mr. Jagers
rural life does not begin in New Hampshire however. He also
gives us glimpses of his own boyhood in the midwest; a background
that makes him uniquely qualified to write about rural life in
a very different part of the United States.
Clearly the people that appear in this book are not just subjects
but neighbors and friends and his affection for them and for his
"last house on the road" come shining through.
