Coast-to-coast with one relationship, two perspectives.......2000-06-01

Reading this book is like floating down a river with a little whitewater, glorious scenery and intelligent company--it's a joy! The two perspectives add depth to the forward movement.

A pleasure.......2000-05-10

This is one of those books whose real storytelling power sneaks up on you. It's a case study in Americana, in the guise of a travelogue. Dudley and Seaborg met a remarkable group of characters on their journey -- a cast few novelists could dream up -- and they share their new friends with us in a delightfully readable way. The writing is so crisp and the imagery so vivid that you can practically hear the crickets chirping as you read!

Modern day Lewis and Clark.......2000-05-04

Seaborg and Dudley have made an incredible journey, and done a great service to the hiking community. They had an audacious mission, to link the nation's great long-distance trails with the cities in between and lay out a way to get from coast to coast under one's own power.

To many of us, this sounds like a dream assignment. But Eric and Ellen faced many challenges-finding a route through a maze of mountain ranges, urban parks, farm roads, rail trails and river crossings; securing the cooperation of local hiking clubs and wary landowners, enduring a cold winter, networking with the media, writing a guidebook, and taking their case to Washington to gain designation as a National Scenic Trail. It was hard, often frustrating work, yet their good humor, physical strength, and boundless enthusiasm saw them through and got the job done.

We're all the richer for it. The book is a real page-turner. Eric and Ellen take turns telling their story, and they make you feel you're right there with them. Especially compelling are the times they get separated. You'll experience first-hand the fear of a woman alone in the wilderness, and the grim determination of her partner to find her. In the end, they'll have you cheering as they accomplish their task.

An adventure for the ages. Don't miss this book!

A great start.......1998-04-19

Finding routes for hikers to cross against the grain of this country's physical geography is this book's ambition. Seaborg and Dudley succeed admirably. This is no Sierra Club/Appalachian Traiil Club guide (trail 26: Old Rag to Shiflett Hollow...). This is the chronicle of an ambitious attempt to chart a way to walk across America.

Book Description

What relationship exists between indigenous and settler/immigrant populations? This fascinating volume answers this question by examining societies where Europeans have settled and become politically dominant over indigenous people-and where a heterogeneous society has developed in class, ethnic, and racial terms. A distinguished cast of contributors explores the racial and ethnic cleavages of such societies and invites comparison with a variety of contemporary societies that have involved encounters between native and migrant groups. In all the case studies discussed (New Zealand, Australia, Zimbabwe, Algeria, Israel, the United States, Mexico, Peru, Canada, and South Africa), special attention is paid to the role of gender. For scholars and students in the fields of gender studies, race and ethnic studies, sociology, and political theory, this book is a must.

Book Description

The history of Zimbabwe has always been reflected in its oral and written literature. Much of the serious fiction written in the 1980s and early 1990s focused on the effects of Zimbabwe's war of liberation. Little has yet been written about post-independence Zimbabwe and the complex and challenging issues that have arisen in the last twenty years. This anthology of twenty-two short stories provides a representative sample of the range and quality of writing in Zimbabwe at the turn of the century, and an impressionistic reflection of the years since independence in 1980. Included are stories by established writers Shimmer Chinodya, Charles Mungoshi, Brian Chikwava; and some younger or less established writers, , Clement Chihota, Wonder Guchu, Chiedza Musengezi, Mary Ndlovu, Vivienne Ndlovu and Stanley Nyamfukudza. The collection also reflects a slightly broader perspective with stories by Alexandra Fuller, Derek Huggins, Pat Brickhill and Chris Wilson, who engage with historical memory of the conflicts out of which Zimbabwe arose, and the lessons to be drawn from living within a culture other than one's own. Overall, the anthology reaffirms the persistent value attached to imaginative writing in Zimbabwe, and illustrates that the country's literary tradition is alive and well, and reshaping itself for new times.

Very Good, Very Interesting.......2000-03-14

This book is an excellent description of one experience of government intrusion into media freedom. While it leaves many historical questions unanswered, it portrays the way in which an insecure and intolerant Southern Rhodesian government used the legal system to suppress media outcry over racial and political issues of great domestic importance. For anyone interested in Rhodesian history this is a must read!

LAMP - An Usefull guide to Account Planning.......2002-02-15

LAMP is the best book I have read about Key/Large Account Planning. Most salesreps and hates the planning process and struggle with their plans. This down to earth approach helps a salesrep to organize his work in developing his account plans in a straightforward and pragmatic way. Instead of focusing on history, LAMP is targeting the future and helps you to align your resources through action plans.

This is a must have!! EXCELLENT BOOK!.......2001-08-16

The first chapter of this book was like reading an unauthorized biography of all my short comings in managing my largest accounts. Even as a top five performer, I still felt like I was flying by the seat of my pants. This book set out a course for improvement that has changed my professional career forever. If you manage large global accounts this book should be your bible. Mine is still drying out from massive highlighter use!

Building Strategic Relationships.......2000-01-29

In this age of consolidation, big companies keep getting bigger. For suppliers, losing any large account can be at least dramatic or at worst devastating. Large Account Management Process (LAMP) from Miller Heiman presents a logical, team friendly method of knowing how your company is positiioned in your large accounts, and what needs to be done to maintain or improve that position. Highly recommended.

Proven to be effective in real businesses.......1998-05-15

Answers the question "how should I be working with field sales." Contains tables, worksheets, lists, and step-by-step approaches with examples. The problem will be getting an entire sales and marketing team to adopt it. Even if they don't, after reading this book, you may find you relate to your sales force in a different, more productive manner. The only reservation I have about this book is that for the concept to be truly effective, an entire work team must complete the training described in the book. I know from personal experience that, when a work team completes the training, it works, and works well. The book, as well as it may be written, cannot substitute for the group training. If it did, I would rate it a 10+.

An eye-opener!!! It's an action-oriented book........1998-05-06

LAMP helped me see how critical it is to take care of our large accounts. I realized that our survival as a company depends on them. Right now, we are taking the necessary action to apply the concepts that we have learned from the book.
