I enjoyed this book. There are points where it does get a bit "tiresome" with all the information about Chuck's career, but that is part of his story. I am not a sports fan, so that could be the reason. The rest of Chuck's story is quite compelling. I am donating the book to my church's library.

Love this book. It is great and shows butterflies from all over the world. Easy to use. My eight-year-old granddaughter has been using it to identify the butterflies in our butterfly garden.

Interesting because I live fairly close. My husband's great great grandfather is buried at the arms house, however, his grave has been destroyed by construction of apartment houses.

I have had this book for at least five years and have read it at least once a year. The book that I ordered from PBS was for a friend. He is enjoying the book.
This is a book that takes forty days to read. You must read one chapter each day and try to make the changes that the author suggests. The changes are in the way you think, so they are easy to accomplish. My friend is in the middle of the book and told me that he is enjoying it as much as I do. Great book, great thoughts!

Just a bit too basic for me. Most information on the Internet, so really do not need the book.

Dr. Jeremiah does an excellent job or relating the Bible to current events. A must-read in understanding the world that we live in today.
