This splendid illustrated history of the Santa Fe Railroad?s flagship passenger trains carries readers back to an era of luxury travel on America?s rails ? when movie stars and moguls booked their places on the Chief for the 40-hour trip ...             Going Home to the Fifties Bill Yenne Last Gasp, 2005 A great look at the "good old days." I've been fascinated with the 50's since I was a child. Almost everything I've read on the 50's has been clouded with cynicism. While reading this book, I really felt like I was transported back in time and into the minds of people who were living in this time. I ...             Rising Sons: The Japanese American GIs Who Fought for the United States in World War II Bill Yenne Thomas Dunne Books, 2007 WOW!!!

This easy read is a must for anyone with an interest in beer, or the Guinness ...             Atlas of North American Railroads Bill Yenne MBI, 2005 Atlas of North American Railroads This is not a typical atlas in the classical definition of the term. Rather the author somehow found maps produced by the several railroads he covers in his book to provide the mapped details of each specific route. This makes it a bit unconventional and some who ...             Inside Boeing: Building the 777 (Motorbooks ColorTech) Bill Yenne Zenith Press, 2002 Excellent. A very well researched and written book with a great deal of factual information and accurate technical data. I could spot no errors. Very, very highly recommended!             San Francisco Then & Now (Then & Now) Bill Yenne Thunder Bay Press, 2002 Welcome to America's Most Conservative City! I'm not using "conservative" in the current political sense, obviously. Everybody knows that John McCain has less than a snowball's chance in Gomorrah of winning in SF. I using the term conservative in its root meaning, something like "saving what was valued in the ...             The American Aircraft Factory in World War II Bill Yenne Zenith Press, 2006 A MUST HAVE THIS COFFEE TABLE BOOK IS SO WELL PUT TOGETHER, THAT I THINK SOMEONE WOULD HAVE A DIFFICULT TIME FINDING ANY FAULT WITH IT.

It starts around the time of the early settlers and moves to ...             100 Authors Who Shaped World History (One Hundred Series) Bill Yenne Bluewood Books, 1996 Not a true and fair selection. This is not a fair selection. It has far too many American writers. It has writers mostly the most recent American ones who have no major standing in world - literature. It is even unfair to the best American writers of this time, and has neither Bellow nor Updike. And ...             The Story of the Boeing Company Bill Yenne Zenith Press, 2005 Not for business, too detailed I was hoping to find a book that would help me understand Boeing better in order to do business with them. This book is interesting but not good for my goal. I also did not like the excruciating detail of the book. For example, many times the author tells us how a ...             Seaplanes & Flying Boats Bill Yenne BCL Press/ Book Creations, 2003 Profusely Illustrated Beautifully illustrated. Largest most complete book I have found on its subject. Not quite as complete as it claims "Every classic model" on the dustjacket, there's no mention of the Colonial Skimmer IV, Lake LA-4 Buccaneer, or the Princess flying boats, for example.             100 Events That Shaped World History Bill Yenne Bluewood Books, 1993 Don't Be Fooled _100 Events_ turns out to be, sadly, a pretty shallow overview of world events. Readers anticipating a companion to, say, _The 100 Most Influential People_, will find themselves disappointed. To its credit, _100 Events_ does include a few events outside the canon of ...          products you might be interested in search for books colortech, evolution, microbrew, motorbooks, revolution, seaplanes      geepe.com    web randomly chosen book: Druidas: Oraculos, Invocaciones y Ritos de Poder--Oracles, Innovations, ...
