101.On the Road to Mr. Right by: Belinda Jones July 01, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £6.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.49 You Save: £3.50 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £0.01
Like Belinda Jones' previous and following books, I loved every minute. What I don't understand is why people think the characters and plot are unbelievable and how conceited Belinda is for naming a character after herself...Hmmm...could it be that this is autobiographical?? Well I never...

102.The Wisdom of Donkeys by: Andy Merrifield March 06, 2008

I don't have a donkey, so I cannot comment upon the accuracies of Mr. Merrifield's observations, but like so many people, I am fascinated by them. The book is written largely in the present tense, and Merrifield uses the experience of an extended walking excusion with a donkey (aka philosopher for hire: Gribouille) as a stem from which assorted autobiographical and literary musings (all donkey related, however tenuously) sprout. It's a stream of consciousness style that at first I found somewhat overblown and possibly a little pretentious, but, as I continued to read, I found myself becoming more and more involved and interested in the slow, meditative atmosphere that the book creates. At the beginning ... Read More:

These maps are really useful when walking. I took this map on a Duke of Edinburgh expedition in the Peak District and it didn't stop raining. The other two maps we took fell apart, even in "waterproof" cases, but this map was brilliant and shows no signs of wear and tear.

This book is just a list of adverts that appeard in the original magazine. They do not tell you anything about the premises. No price guide, nothing on facilities, food, area or transport links. No effort at all has gone into writing this book it is next to useless. Don't waste your money use the web instead.

108.The Rough Guide Map Venice (Rough Guide Map) from: Rough Guides Ltd June 28, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £4.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.24 You Save: £0.75 (15%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £3.70
A very, very good map of Venice, with lots on it. In fact, perhaps, too much. You have to read this map in advance of your trip - become adept at finding a grid reference for a restaurant, for example, or a "sight" if that's what you are on your way to see. Good: - the public transport routes are right, though not very obvious from the map, but there's an official "venice transport" map on the back. - even the traghetto routes are right(a gondola ferry - E0.50 this year, 2008) - "road" names are clear and easy to read, if you've got the right glasses on... you reach an age..... - many reasonable restaurants/bars marked, but coded by cost, which means there are 20 or so entries marked as B on the map, the grid is crucial ...

109.Comprehensive Road Atlas Ireland (Road Atlas) from: Collins April 07, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £8.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.74 You Save: £2.25 (25%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £14.70
I have just returned from a tour of southern Ireland and I used this atlas with no problems at all. It has a full page map of Ireland inside the front cover and then four pages to show more detailed areas before the pages detailing final 3.2 inches to the mile maps. On the inside of the rear cover are distances between major towns in both kilometres and miles and a full index of town. Local attractions are marked and described and there are street plans of a number of the major towns and cities. Great value!

110.Travels with Charley: In Search of America (Penguin Modern Classics) by: John Steinbeck March 01, 2001

(4.5 stars) When John Steinbeck obeys a life-long urge to drive from coast to coast in 1960, he little anticipates the variety of the "American experience." Beginning in Maine and traveling along the northern states through Wisconsin, the Badlands, Montana, and all places in between, to Washington and Oregon, Steinbeck then decides to visit his childhood community of Salinas, in northern California. After meeting with friends there, though many have died, he then drives southward through the length of California and then eastward through the southwest desert to Texas, Louisiana, and eventually up to Virginia before returning to New York. Carrying the reader along with him as he reconstructs this journey for publication in 1962, Steinbeck observes ... Read More:
