|
By: Jane Austen
Publisher: Signet Classics
September 30, 1961
Appropriate for children, this book has excitement, history, and christian thinking in the ways of social behavior. Safe for reading , I think a parent should read it first to clear it for their children, but it can be a good novel for children to read.Pride and Prejudice (Penguin Classics)... more

| 2. Treasure Island | 
|
By: Robert Louis Stevenson
Publisher: Signet Classics
March 01, 1965
This book is one of the "Classics". It is a swashbuckling tale, full of incidents/adventures that will enchant a young reader. I purchased it for the N.C. Wyeth illustrations ( I am an artist , a grand niece of Charles Woodbury who founded the Ogunquit School of Art) with which I am very familiar. Born and raised in Maine, I enjoy ALL the Wyeth works, and own an original N.C Wyeth print. My husband... more

| 6. Atlas Shrugged |
|
By: Ayn Rand
Publisher: Signet
July 01, 1959
The author (Ayn Rand) makes a case for the value of individual responsibility and rewards, but it's got serious holes.
For instance:
1. She would have us believe that all needy people are lazy leeches and communists. This simply isn't true. Our outcomes do not always reward our effort. Some people are hit by tragedy and we should feel some obligation to help them in a way that gets... more

| 7. Kisser: A Stone Barrington Novel | 
|
By: Stuart Woods
Publisher: Signet
August 31, 2010
I am amazed at what a piece of trash this was.
Stuart Woods' books have always been great, holding your attention to the very end, the first one I read (White Cargo) was the absolute best, Kisser was hard for me to get thru, too much sex, very unrealistic and certainly not what I had come to enjoy with his books.

| 8. The Man in the Iron Mask (Signet Classics) |
|
By: Alexandre Dumas
Publisher: Signet Classics
May 02, 2006
I was actually a bit disappointed. I absolutely loved The Three Musketeers. I thought this book would be as adventurous but it is not. We never know much about the man in the iron mask, his part is very small in the entire book and there is no ending for him. I was also disappointed in the end as I felt the political conversation of the king went on and on while the characters that we have grown... more

|
By: Howard Pyle
Publisher: Signet Classics
October 17, 1986
Told with charm and gusto, here are the "true" merry tales of Robin Hood. No goofy guys in tights here, but loyal fellows proudly donning hunter green to join the band of outdoors men, out of work and outlawed by an unjust government that confiscates unfair taxes from the unfortunate... more
