Book Overview

The enchanting prequel to The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit is the classic fantasy that inspired Peter Jackson's major motion picture trilogy When Thorin Oakenshield and his band of dwarves embark upon a dangerous quest to reclaim the hoard of gold stolen from them by the evil dragon Smaug, Gandalf the wizard suggests an unlikely accomplice: Bilbo Baggins, an unassuming Hobbit dwelling in peaceful Hobbiton. Along the way, the company faces trolls, goblins, giant spiders, and worse. But as they journey from the wonders of Rivendell to the terrors of Mirkwood and beyond, Bilbo will find that there is more to him than anyone--himself included--ever dreamed. Unexpected qualities of courage and cunning, and a love of adventure, propel Bilbo toward his great destiny . . . a destiny that waits in the dark caverns beneath the Misty Mountains, where a twisted creature known as Gollum jealously guards a precious magic ring.

Texas Ranger Cookbook

I like this book. Not so much for the recipies but for the Texas Ranger history. It does have some humor to it. Check out the Best-Ever Rum Cake on page 70.

Authentic Texas Cooking!

I was born and raised in Texas. Now I am 69 years old, and this cookbook has recipes for dishes I have experienced in my life. I found this at a gas station, scanned it, bought it, and laid it on a shelf. Recently I picked it up looking for a recipe for King Ranch Chicken, and found it in there. Since then I have tried 4 more recipes and all of them are Outstanding. If you want a cookbook that has Authentic Texas cooking,...

Authorized Texas Ranger Cookbook

The book is a gift for my husband's birthday in September. However, I took a peak at the recipes and can't wait for him to try them. He is a wonderful cook, bar-b-ques and smokes meat. Service was very prompt. I received my book in a matter of days. Condition was perfect. Cudo's to the author's. heather

Entertaining collection of recipes and anecdotes

More than a cookbook, the Authorized Texas Ranger Cookbook includes a brief history of this unique law enforcement agency. As a recent Texan-by-marriage, I was pleased to learn about the Rangers, and was tickled by such recipes as "Beer in the Rear Chicken."

The Beauty of Exploring Poetry
Published by William Shelton • April 27, 2023
As a reader, and an avid one at that, I struggle to apply the same level of zeal to poetry as I have my more preferred topics, such as historic fiction, or biography.
