Book Description
Mohandas K. Gandhi, called Mahatma (“great soul”), was the father of modern India, but his influence has spread well beyond the subcontinent and is as important today as it was in the first part of the twentieth century and during this nation’s own civil rights movement. Taken from Gandhi’s writings throughout his life,
The Essential Gandhi introduces us to his thoughts on politics, spirituality, poverty, suffering, love, non-violence, civil disobedience, and his own life. The pieces collected here, with explanatory head notes by Gandhi biographer Louis Fischer, offer the clearest, most thorough portrait of one of the greatest spiritual leaders the world has known.
“Gandhi was inevitable. If humanity is to progress, Gandhi is inescapable. . . . We may ignore him at our own risk.” –Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
With a new Preface drawn from the writings of Eknath Easwaran
In the annals of spirituality certain books stand out both for their historical importance and for their continued relevance. The Vintage Spiritual Classics series offers the greatest of these works in authoritative new editions, with specially commissioned essays by noted contemporary commentators. Filled with eloquence and fresh insight, encouragement and solace, Vintage Spiritual Classics are incomparable resources for all readers who seek a more substantive understanding of mankind's relation to the divine.

gandhi as a philosopher.......2007-04-12
The format of this book is a little unusual, it's basically an abridged version of Gandhi's writings, supplimented with editorial comments which set the scene for when and where his statements are coming from. If you're not entirely familiar with Gandhi's life or some of the basic aspects of Indian culture at the time, these editorial comments are very helpful. For example, just before some statements about Gandhi's use of the Gita (around page 160) the editor gives a brief summary of the what the Gita is.
Moving on from the basic format, I found this book very enlightening, and not in the way that other reviewers seem to have. I doubt very much that I'm in a position to change anyone's opinion on him, but I ask that if you buy this book, look closely at the ways in which Gandhi supports his claims. Oftentimes he makes grand statements and then leaves them in the air, unsupported. This is not in an of itself a bad thing, as sometimes the truth value of a statement is obvious to the casual observer, but then again sometimes it is not.
Gandhi was certainly a great leader, but I think it's stretching to call him a great philosopher. His ideas were not new, even if the grand-scale application of them was. He seeks truth but seems largely unconcerned with methodology, which undermines the grand statements he makes.
If you do read this book critically, it may help to keep in mind persuasive techniques, even beginner things like appealing to authority. Watch for strange analogies, as in page 168's equating atoms to people and Love to hydrogen/ionic/covalent bonds.
It probably seems a little weird to hear someone object to the methodology of someone like Gandhi, but these days we have to be aware of the methods by which the people around us seem convincing, whether we like what they're saying or not.
Inspirational.......2007-01-10
This is a wonderful book about Gandhi's whole life, his personal growth, relationships and tells how Tolstoy's "What I Believe" influenced the man that he became. A inpiring story that proves that peace is the way.
Very well organized, and informative.......2006-12-29
I really liked the way everything is laid out in this book, allowing you to read Gandhi's own words coupled with an explanation of events that was driving him.
EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION OF GANDHI'S WRITINGS FROM VINTAGE SPIRITUAL CLASSICS SERIES.......2006-11-14
but why not get the originals instead, avaiable here cheaply on amazon.
This book draws from a number of original sources, including "My Experiments with Truth", etc., and you may choose to skip these excerpts and get the full writings. The more in this case the better.
Yet please take a moment to view the back cover using amazon's remarkable "Search Inside" feature, to read the quote about Gandhi's inevitability written by our nation's greatest Christian preacher, the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr., slain for doing and preaching non-violence, including opposing profitable warmongering and warmaking that only killed and wounded his and other peoples of color. King learned much about Christianity from Gandhi, and we can do no less. Lucky if we do as well.
Again, please search the mighty amazon for all of Gandhi's orignal works and read them in their entirety,and not only these excerpts collected originally long ago. (In fact one chapter heading, not quoting Gandhi, refers to Negros, a term which fell out of use some forty years ago).
I in particular now study with gratitude his Tous les hommes sont freres, whose topics are tellingly urgent today. His Way to God is also very very helpful and consoling.
But if you need a fine introductory text, begin here if you promise not to rest here. Vintage Spiritual Classics series are a decent popular source, but not the deep river that runs nearby. It is a division of Random House here recycling and reprinting old works still in the catalogue in new wineskins.
Go to the originals! These are the leaders and voices we most sorely need today: Dr. King and Gandhi. Or just read the Reverend Father John Dear, SJ, and you'll get the idea if not the Spirit. Or better yet, get Father Dear's collection of Gandhi's writings instead, from Orbis Books' Modern Spiritual Masters series entitled, Mohandas Gandhi: Essential Writings.
No better time to get your Ahimsa and Satyagraha.......2006-06-27
This is a book that should- and will- profoundly affect you. On the one hand its wonderful and inspiring. But I find myself instead feeling heart-broken. Mournful. I grieve for an alternate reality where our leaders have either the education, curiosity, wisdom, or courage to embrace the lessons of great people such as Gandhi. It's not exactly esoteric stuff. Everyone knows the name Gandhi and has at least some sense of where he stands historically. Even for the non-readers, there was the movie. It was a big deal.
Gandhi's true transformation occurred when he realized that violence is demeaning not just to victims but to the perpetrators. It is an intoxicating release of sadistic impulses. Impulses that are addicting and toxic. I was reading this book and think about the state of the world, and found myself thinking the tired cliché: give peace a chance. It feels so trite, a well-worn sixties throw-back. But it also a courageous sentiment. Peace takes courage and creativity, and it isn't as quick and easy as violence in the short-term, but it is more than just a dream. Peace is a bold assertion.
What kinds of things crossed my mind when I was reading this book? When John Kerry returned from Vietnam and testified about atrocities being committed by both sides, he was vilified by the right wing, portrayed as a traitor. But it was an act of courage. He obviously wasn't saying we should stop the war because American soldiers are bad people. He was showing how violence leads to more violence, how the violence of an unjust war corrupted the souls of good young Americans who were drawn into warfare. Violence leads to violence, but most importantly the converse is also true. Non-violence is just as contagious. We see peace leading to peace on all levels, from the macro international level all the way down to individual relationships. Another example that crossed my mind is the all-to-recent transformation in the culture of inpatient psychiatry. In the past, restraining people was considered a good treatment option because it quickly stopped dangerous behavior and gave staff a sense of control and safety. But now, the attitude has changed. Restraints are no longer seen as a treatment option but instead as a treatment failure, a last ditch resort for extreme cases only. And the results? People are actually safer. Violent patient behavior eventually goes down when staff thinks creatively of non-traumatic solutions. Those are some of the things that crossed my mind as I read this book.
Something else I like about Gandhi, as reflected in his writings: Whether or not you believe he was born destined for greatness has to do with your spiritual bent, but either way, he accomplished what he accomplished as a political leader and philosopher through the hard work of personal journey and spiritual exploration. He was an anglophile when he was young, buying into the classism of the oppressors. When he became radicalized after witnessing the cruelty and the glee with which the British soldiers repressed rebellion, the pendulum at first swung all the way the other way. He became a separatist, not unlike Malcolm X prior to his spiritual transformation. In fact, Gandhi was almost a middle-aged man before coming up with the magnanimous observation that violence degrades all involved, victims and perpetrators alike. That was a surprise to me actually, that Gandhi rejected separatism at an older age than Malcolm X did.
So read Gandhi. Read, share your books, talk about what it stirs up. Dream of a better way. And find a way to act on your dreams. And read John Stuart Mill, Emma Goldman, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., Edward Said, Chomsky... Agree, disagree, but read with an open mind.
Sorry for all the chatter. Thank you for listening, bye bye.
Book Description
The Curtiss Helldiver was the backbone of the United States Navy's offensive in the Pacific from 1943 until the Japanese capitulation. Despite early problems, it evolved into an effective and reliable airplane that was able to absorb severe punishment. Peter C. Smith tells the full story of this remarkable machine in this paperback reprint of a popular Crowood title. Packed with rare photographs, this lively and informative book describes and often neglected airplane.
Customer Reviews:
Good Book on an Ugly Airplane.......2005-04-23
There is an old saying that if an airplane looks good it will fly good, and I've always thought the Helldiver was an ugly airplane. In reading this book I can see why it was so ugly. The original specifications issued by the navy were that two airplanes had to fit on the elevator of the Essex class carriers. This made the plane shorter than it should have been and resulted in the short, fat look of the plane. This caused instability in flight that really didn't get resolved until the -4 and -5 revisions. By then it had turned into quite an airplane, finally living up to its expectations and replacing the much older SBD.
Peter Smith obviously loves the plane and has collected an amazing amount of material to write about and photographs to include in this book. He of course covers the use of the plane by the US Navy, but also talks about the Army version (A-25 Shrike) which was developed but fell into disfavor because the USAAF didn't want a dive bomber. Some interesting politics in this area.
This is probably the best written, most complete single airplane book I've read. But I still think the Helldiver was ugly.

Excellent photographs of all details.......2002-03-03
I bought this book because I was interested in the SB2C. This book is focused at the modeler, with many photographs of all details. However, this extra coverage to every detail is what alot of books on airplane types miss. That is why I bought this book, to see the cockpit panels, gunners stations, etc, which are frequently not covered in mainstream works. Great book.
Book Description
Robert Timberg weaves together the lives of Annapolis graduates John McCain, James Webb, Oliver North, Robert McFarlane, and John Poindexter to reveal how the Vietnam War continues to haunt America. Casting all five men as metaphors for a legion of well-meaning if ill-starred warriors, Timberg probes the fault line between those who fought the war and those who used money, wit, and connections to avoid battle. A riveting tale that illuminates the flip side of the fabled Vietnam generation -- those who went.
Customer Reviews:
First Class History.......2007-07-01
A little lower than the angels, we are. This story of five military men with high ideals shows how great aspirations interacted with those about them and the world in which we all live.
Beware!.......2007-04-20
The writing here is topnotch and the inside stuff pretty interesting, but in the end, "The Nightingale's Song" is little more than a political hit-job. Poindexter, McFarlane and North are exceptional in their weaknesses and faults; McCain and Webb knights in shining armor. Eleven years after this book came out I doubt that Timberg would even treat McCain as well. If you are of the conservative bent you will find this book tough going.
Ollie's Follies.......2007-02-19
Timberg is a very good writer. He weaves together the lives of his five principals, John McCain, John Poindexter, Bud McFarlane, Ollie North and James Webb. Webb, McCain, and, surprisingly, Poindexter, receive favorable treatment, though flaws are pointed out. McFarlane is treated fairly, but his dissembling and deceit during Iran-Contra clearly bothered the author. North is treated as a bit of a buffoon. Timberg writes carefully and gives both sides of North, but he does not come off well. Then again, how could he?
In my view, Timberg's only truly unfair portrait is of Ronald Reagan, where Timberg follows the standard inside-the-Beltway line of "Reagan was a doofuss who didn't know anything that wasn't in a script." Timberg's Reagan is not the same man who faced down the Russian bear and started the crumbling of the Iron Curtain.
McCain is treated well, but his philandering, opportunism, and stubbornness will make for some interesting times in his presidential campaign. I did not know, for example, that he and his first wife were close to the Reagans. After McCain left his severely crippled wife, she went to work for Nancy Reagan, and, the book leads one to believe, McCain chased every skirt he could find, much to the Reagans' dismay.
Timberg's book stands the test of time. He focuses on the mens' personal foibles and problems and links them convincingly to their time at the Naval Academy and during Vietnam. It is an interesting character study. Enjoy.
Well told story.......2007-01-06
Read this for book club. Really enjoyed it. Learned so much about people (McCain, North, Poindexter, etc) and about Vietnam and Iran Contra. Told really well (journalist author).
A Great Story.......2006-11-13
Robert Timberg's book covering the lives of five men and how they reacted to their shared experience at the Naval Academy, in Vietnam, and during the 1980s serving or supporting the Reagan Administration is an outstanding example of capturing a certain aspect of American life since the end of the Vietnam War.
The subjects, John Poindexter, Robert McFarlane, John McCain, Jim Webb and Oliver North, all have their own personal strengths and weaknesses they demonstrate in various stressful situations, either combat or in testimony before Congress. However, they illustrate an often overlooked aspect inherent in some Americans: they were equally prepared to serve their country by putting their lives in harm's way (McCain, North, McFarlane, Webb), and could also become disillusioned with the actual administration of American power and might (Webb). They could also become seduced or blinded by American power's limits (North, Poindexter, McFarlane).
North comes out of Timberg's treatment looking the worst. At turns a liar and an incompetent, he had little in the way of a moral compass. Poindexter was the genius at both science and management, but the intellectual feeb when it came to deciding between right and wrong. MaFarlane aspired to gain acceptance by both the Ivory tower and the Marine Corps, and was crushed under the weight of it all. Webb, the constant warrior, never backed down to a challenge. McCain was the high flying fighter pilot put Hell at the Hanoi Hilton and able to come out to serve his country in uniform and in Congress. (Reading his opposition in Congress to the military presence in Lebanon in 1983 against his current policy in Iraq is an illuminating activity.)
The one complaint I have with this book is that, due to the nature of the subject matter Timberg is forced to jump around his timeline from chapter to chapter, and it can occasionally be confusing as to when the events he is describing are taking place. But this is a minor quibble.
Newly relevant today since a few of these names are fresh in recent events of the past few years, I highly recommend this book.
Book Description
Fireworks was one of the works that brought the young Stravinsky to the attention of ballet impresario Sergei Diaghilev. Song of the Nightingale (based on Hans Christian Andersen's "The Emperor and the Nightingale") is a symphonic poem for orchestra, "the last of the richly scored and 'spectacular' stage works of [Stravinsky's] first period." — Grove's Dictionary.
Customer Reviews:
Too many unsolved mysteries. . . not a convincing romance.......2000-10-28
Despite having read the first in this four-volume "trilogy" several months ago, I still had difficulty keeping all the characters straight in my mind. And I have to confess to a prejudice against stories that leave "cliffhangers" at the end to ensure that the reader will buy the next book(s). At the end of this one, we still don't know what happened to the hero's mother and brother, and frankly, Lord Nightingale doesn't seem to play much of a part here except to keep singing the little ditty about Hiram kissing someone's sister!
I'll let you in on another secret: I happen to have the next book ("Lord Nightingale's Triumph") on hand (from the book club) and I took a peak at the end to satisfy my curiosity...and discovered yet ANOTHER agonizing cliffhanger! (So I won't be reading THAT one until "Lord Nightingale's Christmas" is in hand.)
A reviewer of "Lord Nightingale's Debut" suggested that these books would have been better as stories in an anthology, and, as a reader, I certainly agree with that. It wouldn't be so difficult to keep the characters straight, the cliffhangers would be resolved in the end rather than making the reader wait several weeks until the next book comes out, and the superficial romances--which are not very convincing in my opinion, at least not for a full-length novel--would not be so obvious.
Lovely, just lovely ..........2000-10-20
If, once you've read Lord Nightingale's Love Song, you can honestly say you haven't "falled right down into love" with all the various enchanting creatures that frolic through its pages, then with all due respect to you, the author and the publisher, I suggest that you never again pick up a book by Judith Lansdowne. Because this is, quite simply, classic Lansdowne, one with smiles and giggles and love and laughter on very nearly every page, along with a classic assortment of animals and people you won't soon forget.
There's a lot of plot to go along with all these characters, but after all, this is just book two of a four book series, so there rather needs to be a lot of plot and a lot of characters. And a lot of love and laughter to accompany them on their adventure.
Eugenia Chastain is the second of the three cousins to be featured; the absent, but frequently mentioned Nicky was the first. One can but hope that Neil will be the next. Or if not next, then the next one after that, because one gets the sneaky suspicion that Peter, the long-lost brother of the Marquess of Bradford, will be the hero of book three. Seems only fair, as the Marquess has found his true love in the petite form of Eugenia.
Of course, Delight and Stanley Blithe and Sweetpea and Lord Nightingale--and let us not forget Nod--helped these two who'd thought they'd never find a love of their own, so we can but hope they'll help Peter and Mary, and then Neil and Alice, too. And anyone else who gets in their way, for that matter. What a truly lovely holiday gift to us all! Thank you Judith Lansdowne and Zebra, for your thoughtfulness!
Good story........2000-09-07
Eugenia Chastain never expected her Season to end with a marriage proposal. Her Season passed exactly as she expected --uneventfully. When her aunt Diana asks her to join her in Kent and help care for 8-year-old Delight, she is glad to be leaving London. She is enjoying a stroll with Delight and Delight's menagerie when they meet the man renting out the neighboring estate. Bradford has retired to Kent with his aging, beloved horse-- Nod. Nod is a strawberry roan that Bradford has owned since he was a newborn foal. Bradford has also been searching for his mother and twin brother, as he has seen neither one since he was eight. He is a bit upset to realize that his neighbors are a trio of females in possession of a puppy, kitten, and a Macaw parrot. His heart has been long locked away, but when Eugenia smiles at him he feels something stir within him, and he is quite sure it is not pity for the young woman who dreams of dancing with him. In spite of her limp. Lord Nightingale's Love Song is the second in what was originally slated to be a trilogy, but is now a quartet.
Lord Nightingale's Love Song.......2000-08-31
The blurb on the front cover of the book asks if a spinster can strike "the right note with an eligible bachelor?" And that, in a nutshell, is the plot of this novel. Plain and almost penniless Eugenia Chastain, having spent a dismal and unhappy Season in London, returns to the country, where she again crosses paths with the Marquess of Bradford, a very unhappy and angry young man. Will the gentle, kind hearted and good humoured Eugenia be able to humanise the emotionally scarred Marquess?
The answer, is of course, yes. And while the novel does chart the romantic relationship that develops between Bradford and Eugenia, the story is mostly Bradford's. As the novel unfolds, the Marquess' unhappy childhood and his agonising search for his twin brother are carefully painted in; and Ms Lansdowne does a skilful job at allowing for Bradford's emotionally "thawing" to take place gradually. One small note of criticism: there were times, because of the delicate pace of the book, when I got the distinct impression that Bradford cared much more for his horse than he did for Eugenia.
It is however advisable to read "Lord Nightingale's Debut" first before reading this book. Certain familial relationships within the Chastain family; who Lord Nightingale is and how he fits into the scheme of things (he is a parrot); and certain past events that are alluded to, all make better sense if you have the first book for context. With "Lord Nightinglae's Love Song" one gets a better picture of the Chastain family. Also more clues are dropped as to who, what or where "Knollsmarmer" may be. I believe that this is a mystery that is to thread all four book is the series.
The character that steals the show in this book (as he did in the first as well) however is Neil Spelling, the ne'er-do-well cousin. His is a character that is supposed to be well past redemption. However, I cannot but hope he does end up with a book of his own and that his character is redeemed. He certainly deserves it.
All in all, a pleasant read and a nice way to spend an evening.

Book Description
Song of the Nightingale is a book that will inspire readers to claim their unique vocation in life. Drawing on naturalistic imagery from the poetry of St. John of the Cross, journalist, lecturer, and broadcaster Michael Ford invites readers to join him as he retraces the steps of his own spiritual pilgrimage. Starting with a serious car accident in 1990, Ford has kept a journal to chart the highs and lows of his inner life. He uses the nightingale's song as a metaphor for God's calling us to claim our distinctiveness--particularly during the dark times.
Throughout the book, Ford shares the ups and downs of his search to find his true calling. We follow him as he weighs whether or not to become a priest, his foray into a seminary and out again, and his far-flung assignments as a BBC religious affairs journalist. As he reports outwardly, he reflects inwardly. His inner story is always close to nature in which he sees symbols of the divine hidden in the world around him. After more than a decade negotiating his way through ambiguity, uncertainty, joy and struggle, Ford discovers that the secret of his vocation lies much closer to home.
This is a unique book in which a journalist turns the table on himself. In the spirit of Carl Rogers' words, "what is most personal is most universal," Ford spurns the utter objectivity of the journalist for a view that is totally subjective. In this context, this book could be described as 'a spirituality of searching.' Song of the Nightingale is written for people from all walks of life and denominations and it will be especially meaningful for seminarians and parish priests.
