Book Description
With this book, anyone can work successfully with chine colle. And it also a valuable and useful addition to any artist-printmaker's library. Brian Shure's thoughtful comments about paper and printing, his description of the colle techniques employed in China, his references to Balzac's story Lost Illusions, and his protrayal of Rembrandt's experiments with paper all provide a rich and engaging context for the carefully detailed process he describes.--Done Kelley, Assoc. Prof. of Art, Univ. of Cincinnati

informative.......2004-05-19
As an artist and printmaker, I found the technical and historical advice in this book illuminating. No printmaker should be without it!
Not worth a dime.......2003-02-07
I really had high hopes for this book, but was sadly dissappointed. All of the instructive photographs are taken from video stills and are very poor quality. None of the finished pieces are in color. There is no step-by-step for anything and the directions are vague, at best. As a printmaking student, I was hoping for a great new book to inspire me with ideas.... instead, I returned it.
Answers and Context.......2001-06-09
A straightforward handbook which is also very informative. Shure communicates the subject matter and techniques with uncommon clarity. This book is used by the printers at Pace Prints among others.

Wanda Gag: A Catalogue Raisonne of the Prints by Audur H. Wi.......2005-02-16
I hope anyone who is at all interested in the real Wanda Gag reads this book. It is a collection of many of her prints and examples of her children's books and some slices into her life after she was on her own in New York. She was very timid and very reserved as a young woman but as an adult in the Big Apple she became open to many things. She married but only to save her long time partner Earle Humphries from being fired from his job. Both of them had many outside bed partners that seems to have been ok with the other. She tried to write a book a year to give her time for her print making but her greatest source of income was her children's books. It gave Wanda and her family a life away from her near destitute beginnings in Minnesota. She never kept much for her self since she was the main source of income for the family until the next two older siblings began to work and that freed up Wanda to do more as she wished.
This book is a bit disjointed as it is more or less in parts that are not connected well but her art and her diary entries make up for this. Highly recommended.
Book Description
In 1945, an American G.I. mailed home a Japanese flag. Fifty years later, his daughter unfolded the past. Growing up, Louise Steinman knew little about her father's experiences in World War II. All she knew was that the whistling teakettle was banned from the kitchen and that she was never to cry in front of him. Years later, after her parents' death, she found an old ammunition box, filled with nearly five hundred letters her father had written to her mother during the War. She also found a silk Japanese flag inscribed to Yoshio Shimizu. Who was Yoshio Shimizu and why did her father have his flag? So began Steinman's quest to return this "souvenir" to its owner, and in the process, to learn more about the war that transformed the expressive young man in those letters into the reserved father she had known.
Weaving together her father's raw, poignant letters with her own journey, Steinman presents a powerful view of how war changed one generation and shaped another.

A Moving Memoir.......2007-06-30
Louise Steinman has hit it out of the park with this wonderful, moving memoir about her father, Norman Steinman, his war experiences, and the way those experiences shaped his life--and his relationships with his family. It is also about Ms. Steinman's own odyssey in experiencing her father's war, through reading hundreds of her father's war-time letters discovered after her parents' deaths, talking to other Pacific War veterans, and visiting long-forgotten battlefields in the Philippines. Ms. Steinman eventually makes a special journey to Japan to visit the family of a long-dead Japanese soldier. It involves a simple errand: she needs to give something back...
Ms. Steinman shows that the scars of war run deep and the impacts are felt through succeeding generations. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
AN EXCELLENT READ AND A WORK VERY WELL DONE!.......2007-06-06
Like so many in my generation, the author, like the rest of us, really had no clue as to what made her father tick. These men, and women, of the "Greatest Generation" were a different breed. I had to blink twice when the author described her father, his attitudes, work ethic, treatment of his family and on and on. She could have well been describing my own father.
The author, after her father's death, discovers a box of letters written to his wife (the author's mother) during the war. Her father fought in the Pacific, taking part in some of its most brutal of battles. Amongst the letters, in an envelope, was a Japanese Flag, a "souvenir flag" which her father had sent home. The flag was of the type carried by many Japanese soldiers, which was a sort of good luck piece. The story is basically Ms. Steinman's search for the family of the soldier whose body it was taken from and a story of Ms. Steinman's search for her father, i.e. who really was her father, and how had the war changed him?
Now I will be honest, there were parts of the book that disturbed me. I am not all that certain if the author ever did have a clue as to what made her father the man he was and how the war truly affected him. The author never actually says it, but after reading her description of her father, which gave us some idea of the kind of man he was, there is really no doubt where he got the flag, and how he got it. He did not seem the type of man who would simply pick up a flag off any old dead body and keep it. While this falls into the realm of speculation, I think it probably would have been better if the author had faced reality. Be that as it may, the author did quite a good job with her research and I certainly admire her objectives.
The book is well written, easy to read, and quite informative. Like another reviewer here, I have the feeling the author actually found out more about herself than she did of her father, and that is actually a very good thing. I do recommend this one highly. You certainly will be richer for having read it.

Beautiful story, beautifully written.......2006-06-12
A page turner, I could hardly put it down. Moving and poignant. Through reading about "the war" of the author's father, I learned a lot about my own father and "his war". He too faught with the 25th Division at Balete Pass in 1945, earning a combat intantryman badge and purple heart. He has rarely spoke of his experience and after reading this book, I better understand why. The Souvenir is a must read for anyone whose father fought in "The Pacific War". Thank you Ms. Steinman, The Souvenir is truly a gift.
The Souvenir: A Daughter Discovers Her Father's War.......2005-09-03
I have just finished reading Ms. Steinman's THE SOUVENIR, and through her skill and persuasion, her souvenir has now become "my" souvenir too. I find myself thinking about her journey as a daughter as well as the unspeakable journeys our fathers, brothers, and sons (now daughters too) have made in times of war.
If You Believe in it, You Win.......2005-08-08
Louise Steinman weaves war, family and an unsolved mystery into a fine story about how a daughter trys to uncover the meaning of the deep, inconsolable silence her father brings home from one the worst battles of World War II: MacArthur's famous "return" to Luzon, the Philippines.
She retraces history with the help of more than 700 letters her father wrote to her mother during his time away, and with her friends, family and a handful of old infantry vets she is able to puzzle together what was the most momentous time in her father's life. Her journey forges a new understanding of her father and, most importantly, her relationship to him, even many years after his death.
The story tantalizes with descriptions of jungle warfare, imperialism and young men in the throes of battle, especially from the vantage point of Japan, where like their American counterparts, families were torn asunder by the conflict. They too carry the remnants of pain and sorrow sixty years later. Here, at least, Steinman could have spent more time illustrating the cultural differences-and similarities-that propel leaders and their societies to sacrifice their young men for nationalistic fervor.
In the end, the tale reveals just as much about the author as it does about her father. The care, grace and sensitivity with which she tells her story reflects the same qualities her father had, then lost, then struggled to regain after he returned home from 165 consecutive days of brutal warfare.

Book Description
It is World War II. The corpse of a soldier lies someplace in the mountains of central Italy; in Milan, a German hidden in the cellar of a house in Via Monte Nevoso is captured by partisans; in Turin, German soldiers look at the body of a member of the partisan organization, who has just been killed in a shoot-out.
These are only three of the photographs Paolo Ventura has included in War Souvenir, a book which reflects and recounts the crude intensity of that war. But unlike the work of other photographers, Ventura's pictures are clearly fake: the images are the result of meticulous preparation, and each one presents a non-existent but apparently truthful memory. The soldiers are dummies, the scenes and objects in which they act are all in miniature.
Ventura represents war as a game in a grotesque dollhouse, but he does so without abandoning either war's emotion or its pain. His photographs constitute a profound and surprising reflection on the power of documentation and memory.
About War Souvenir, Francine Prose wrote: "Looking at these photos creates a moment of suspension, a melancholy hush in which we almost imagine we can hear whispers about the riddles of life and death, time and age, childhood innocence and adult knowledge, art, war, history, and such questions as: What are we seeing? What do we think we are seeing? And what we are concluding about what we think we are seeing?"

In Nazi-occupied Poland, schools, courts and newspapers were operated by the Polish Underground secretly, right under the nose of the Gestapo. The author who was liaison officer between the underground and the exiled Polish government in London, wrote this amazing report right after the liberation.

Karski's Historic Trip: A Polish Underground Operation.......2006-06-21
Jan Karski's trip to England and the US, which warned the Allies of the Holocaust in progress, is well known. However, Karski is often incorrectly thought of as some sort of unusual moral giant who tried to save the Jews all on his own. In fact, as this book makes clear, his heroic trip was planned, ordered, and performed in the context of his active, multifaceted involvement in the Polish Underground. For example, Karski's visit to the Belzec death camp was facilitated by a rendezvous on the nearby property of a Polish farmer who was also a member of the Underground (p. 340).
Karski was involved in the defense of Poland from the first hours of WWII. A few authors (e. g. Alfred-Maurice de Zayas) have tried to deny the existence of a German fifth column during the German-Soviet conquest of Poland (September-October 1939). In actuality, Karski's very unit came under fire from members of this fifth column (p. 8). The attackers were Polish citizens of German descent.
Karski ended up in Soviet and then German captivity. He repeatedly writes of the unbelievable barbarity of both conquerors. While in a Gestapo prison, Karski slashed his wrists in an unsuccessful suicide attempt. He had feared that he might break down under the incessant torture and betray his confidants in the Polish Underground. Karski was freed by a daring commando attack by the Underground combined with a well-placed bribe of a German guard.
Karski elaborates on the forced Germanization of Poznan (pp. 78-82), something attempted unsuccessfully before under Frederick the Great and then Bismarck. The Poles were brutally expelled. Very few of the remaining Poles chose to register as Germans and thus become Volksdeutsche.
Karski (p. 132) succinctly summarizes the attitude of almost all full-blooded Poles to the Nazis: "The German occupation was never recognized by the Polish people, and there could be no doubt on this score because, in Poland alone of all the occupied countries, there never appeared anything resembling a legal or pseudo-legal body composed of Poles and collaborating with the Germans. Indeed, in all of Poland, not a single political office in the German-controlled administration was ever held by a Pole; not a single head of any province was Polish".
Jan Thomas Gross has insinuated that Poles had no Quisling because the Germans did not want any Polish Quisling. Jan Karski's personal experience with the Germans adds to the refutation to Gross' silly claim. While a captive of the dreaded Gestapo, Karski was personally approached by a high-ranking SS man (pp. 155-163) who tried to induce him to become a Polish Quisling. The SS-man promised him relief from torture, and then appealed to the hopelessness of the Polish cause and the certainty of German victory in the wake of the fall of France and the seemingly-incipient peace treaty with England. The SS-man also cited the sensibleness of all the other nations that had formed collaborationist governments under German rule and said that Poles should also, for once, come to their senses and do the same. Karski refused.
Karski visited Nazi Germany itself. He reports (p. 217) never encountering any sign of German opposition to the Nazi rule. (Of course, some developed later as Germany began to lose one battle after another, and the attempt was made to assassinate Hitler in order to save Germany's skin from increasingly certain defeat).
A certain amount of detail is given to Karski's visits with British and American leaders. It is a shame that Roosevelt made such supportive statements about Poland while, behind Karski's back, he was already selling out the Poles to the Soviet Union.
Riveting True Story.......2006-06-01
In Story of a Secret State, Jan Karski recounts his work with the Polish Underground during WWII. The book was fascinating overall, though I found a few short sections to be overly detailed and a bit dry. Impressively, Jan speaks of his own heroic actions without sounding boastful. I especially enjoyed the his depiction of all the brave people who helped him carry out his work. Karski's account of his visits to the Warsaw ghetto and the death camp surely benefitted from his precise description, making the events horrifically real. I highly recommend this book to all.
Polish History Classic.......2002-06-17
This book belongs on everybody's short list of Polish and East European history. Jan Karski was a truly heroic man and is story is told in plain, straightforward langauge as the story of one man who took enormous risks to tell the story of the Holocaust. A necessary corrective to much of the polemic on the complex issue of Poles and the Nazi occupation. Not to be missed. This is the second anniversary of his death here in Washington.
An amazing, true story that reads like a gripping novel.......2002-05-29
This book was assigned for a graduate course I took in Eastern European history; I couldn't believe that any required reading could be so exciting. It is the true story of Jan Karski's experience as a messenger for the Polish underground, and it doesn't include a dull page. Karski completed several missions, was captured by the Germans, and escaped. The leaders of Poland's Jewish community, knowing that Karski was going to the West, arranged for him to disguise himself as a guard in a death camp so that he could witness the atrocities. He not only went and included his horrifying experiences in this book, he personally reported what he saw to president Roosevelt and other prominent Americans. Karski knew that the West was betraying Poland and, as a last ditch effort to influence Western policy, he wrote and published this book in 1944. It was a best seller and, I believe, a Book-of-the-month club selection. So much for not knowing about what Hitler was doing to the Jews! Do read this amazing story and, to get the full background, read the book "Karksi, How One Man Tried to Stop the Holocaust," by E. Thomas Wood.
Story of a Secret State.......2002-02-05
"Story of A Secrete State" is the tale of the Polish resistance movement to the Nazi occupation of Poland (1939-1945) told by Jan Karski, a member of the "Underground". Jan Karski, a true patriot of Poland, gives you an "insider" view of what life was like for Poles during this period of time and the variety of methods used by the Polish Underground to resist the Nazis. Karski is an EXCELLENT writer and vividly details the travails of Poland from the initial invasion by the Nazis in 1939 through the Warsaw Uprising. It is a must read for anyone whom is interested in WWII, Poland, or how the Nazis operated in the nations they occupied. As a special bonus it gives detailed information on how to set up a resistance movement, a secrete newspaper, urban warfare, and intelligence gathering, should the need arise in your life. TWO THUMBS UP!!

If this story of espionage and survival were a novel, readers might dismiss the Shackleton-like exploits of its hero as too fantastic to be taken seriously. But respected historian David Howarth confirmed the details of Jan Baalsrud's riveting tale. It begins in the spring of 1943, with Norway occupied by the Nazis and the Allies desperate to open the northern sea lanes to Russia. Baalsrud and three compatriots plan to smuggle themselves into their homeland by boat, spend the summer recruiting and training resistance fighters, and launch a surprise attack on a German air base. But he's betrayed shortly after landfall, and a quick fight leaves Baalsrud alone and trapped on a freezing island above the Arctic Circle. He's poorly clothed (one foot is entirely bare), has a head start of only a few hundred yards on his Nazi pursuers, and leaves a trail of blood as he crosses the snow. How he avoids capture and ultimately escapes--revealing that much spoils nothing in this white-knuckle narrative--is astonishing stuff. Baalsrud's feats make the travails in Jon Krakauer's Mt. Everest classic Into Thin Air look like child's play. In an introduction, Stephen Ambrose calls We Die Alone a rare reading experience: "a book that I absolutely cannot put down until I've finished it and one that I can never forget." This amazing book will disappoint no one. --John J. Miller
Book Description
One of the most exciting escape narratives to emerge from the challenges and miseries of World War II chronicles Jan Baalsrud’s escape from Nazi-occupied arctic Norway.

Decent read but not an epic one.......2007-09-07
I enjoyed the story but it did take me longer to finish than I would have wanted. The local citizens who helped him were the real heros. He just sort of went along for the ride. The locals left him up in the mountains a few times by himself without the ability to move. They basically left him to die and by shear chance he didn't. After a while they felt so bad for him they came to the conclusion that he had suffered enough and at that point risked their lives to get him over the mountain range, out of enemy territory, and into the hands of the allies. He lived to tell the tale but I'm not overly impressed with his actions.
we die alone.......2007-07-19
Husband is history buff - hasn't read it yet - but I am sure he will get a lot out of it and be able to discuss it with his friend who is also a history buff on ww11
Well Written niche of WW2.......2007-02-12
Story about a Norwegian named Jan who goes back to Norway in 1943 to protest the German occupation as an agent of sabatoge and organize resistance. Things go awry and he is forced to rely on the people there for help in getting thru to neutral Sweeden as the sole survivor of his group. It is very well written and a great story. Every bit of what Jan went thru, and it was unbelievable, seemed to be there. The writer some how transformed himself into Jan, it was so real. It may be tedious to some, but to others who are truly interested in what happened and what Jan and his helpers when thru; it was hard to put this book down. People who enjoy psychology and moderate to heavy deep thinkers would enjoy this especially. There is some action as well, but much of it dwells on how Jan gets thru day to day on the edge of death, sick and crippled and waiting for his saviors, and what his saviors go thru as well. Little piece of WW2 for those hungry for something different about that war, like me. Next Up, 'Seven Days in January'.
A Norwegian Saboteurs's Story.......2007-01-12
This book starts off with a real Hollywood type beginning, a crew of Norwegians saboteurs attempting to implant themselves back into Nazi occupied Norway after receiving training in England. As the team is landing, the Germans capture or kill the whole team, except one escapee, Jan Baalsrud. Jan performs heroics to escape the initial ambush, scaling icy cliffs, while wounded and barefoot, swimming bays to elude German search parties. Jan's goal is to survive and escape to Sweden
A non-fiction book can not twist stories the way Hollywood can. In this case the action is at the beginning. The remainder of the story is really the story of a frostbitten crippled man being stored in remote huts and ice caves, enduring the cold, while Norwegian patriots are scheming to provide him with food, transportation and safe passage to Sweden. The story of this hero's endurance becomes a little tedious. I did not find it a story of the ultimate endurance, but it is well worth reading. The lifestyle and landscape of small isolated fishing villages in Northern Norway during World War II is very interesting. The fact that Jan Baalrud was often stored with a sledge and some meager provisions in an ice cave for a week or two while his destiny was being planned by Nature's storms, German search parties and local villagers.
Inspiring.......2006-11-01
A classic survival adventure tale taking the reader through the frozen reaches of Norway and Sweden along with the cultural study of the Laps people of the far north. Very difficult to put down and a rewarding theme of overcoming not just the Nazi pursuers but the wild and chilling glacier wilderness. It is a moving story of the bravery of common people caught in the clutches of a ruthless regime. The help they provided and the number of them that risked their lives for the well being of one man is inspiring. It will restore your faith in that inner spark of humanity that wins out over so much evil.

Waste of Paper.......2004-05-09
I'm not sure why anyone would bother to publish this. It's not really about history. It's basically a bunch of pictures and a map of the Civil War era bawdy houses, with an occasional sentence or two. I thought I was going to get an interesting slice of history. Instead I got someone's collection of tidbits and pictures and a map of where the bawdy houses were.
I'm not sure what the whole point of this book is.
A interesting look inside the Federal Capital during the CW.......1997-06-13
Here's just three sample reviews of this fine text and outstanding 2by3' map...
"Following his book, The Story The Soldier's Wouldn't Tell, about sex during the Civil War, Tom Lowry focuses here on a ... small area of central Washington, DC during the Civil War. Close to the heart of government lay this hot bed of vice and prostitution, catering largely to the military. Fascinating reading." John Bancroft, M.D., Director, Kinsey Institute, Indiana University
"With this book on the bordellos of Washington, D.C., during the Civil War, Lowry has presented insights into a previously neglected aspect of the great conflict, which touched not only active-duty soldiers but also long-retired veterans. The usual description of 1861-1865 Washington portrays muddy roads, confusion, and men hurrying along the streets. Now we know where ... some of them were going!" Jack D. Welsh, M.D., Author of Medical Histories of Union Generals
"A concise, open-minded, and lucid look at the vice district of Mr. Lincoln's City, where even the pressure of war could not change the hierarchies of power and the ordering of class, of race, and of gender. This is a scholar's illuminating look at the difficult questions about America's future which emerged in those sin-sodden streets. Future studies of this neglected subject will have a difficult time matching Dr. Tom Lowry's compassion, coherence, and class." Benedict R. Maryniak, President, Buffalo Civil War Round Tabl

Tom Lowry has done it again!.......1997-05-10
Tom Lowry has done it again! With this book on the Bordellos of Washington, D.C., during the Civil War, he has presented insights into a previously neglected aspect of the great conflict, which touched not only active-duty soldiers but also long-retired veterans. The usual description of 1861-1865 Washington portrays muddy roads, confusion, and men hurrying along the streets. Now we know where at least some of them were going!
This book will interest not only Civil War buffs, but also present-day Washingtonians interested in the past of their city. An excellent map shows the location of more than sixty houses of ill-fame, and tables contain official U.S. Government ratings of their quality. Every Civil War enthusiast headed for our nation's capital must pack a copy of this book, along with the usual contemporary guides.
