Fact

I have mixed feelings about this book. It's a thoroughly absorbing read and makes a very cohesive argument for looking after our planet, and being careful with our natural resources. I feel Mr Gore has gone out on a limb here and gathered a lot of the evidence from a wide variety of sources - some of it first hand, through travelling across the world - and cannot be faulted for his passion and singlemind-set and if he can make America change its position on rapidly raping the planet then I say more power to him.

There is no doubt about it, this book is definitely one that every Tolkien fan should have. It is pocket sized and packed full of information as to where everything is geographically as well as being beautifully illustrated.

If you want to follow Frodo's journey with his companions in a more visual way then I highly recommend this book.

Barack Obama by Tim Alexander and read by Kerry Shale is packed with information about the new President of America, his family, his hopes and his influences on how he became the man we know today.

This book is full of so many facts and suggestions that I wished this book had been out quite a few years ago, it would have been a great gift to my children when they started at university or in the work place and with alll the insight these two outstanding personalities bring to their book from their own experiences it certainly will open yours eyes to many a basic home truth.

Well this book really speaks to, especially if you do read lots of books, or belong to a book club.  I found the book amusing and yet so true of many people, who talk about books when all they have read is a write up in a magazine or heard the book spoken about on radio!
