Bob Dollar is a reluctant land swindler. When the 25-year-old protagonist in Annie Proulx's That Old Ace in the Hole signs on as a location scout for Global Pork Rind, an industrial hog farming corporation, he has no idea what kind of moral quandaries he's in for. Well, maybe he does. His assignment, after all, is to infiltrate a tiny town in the Texas Panhandle and find a tract of land his employer can turn into an industrial hog farm. Bob tells the locals he's scouting for luxury home developers ("They feel there is potential here"), but as a cover story it's less than clever. Only a fool would build mansions in the godforsaken Panhandle country, a place of light soil, bad wind, killing drought, and end-of-world thunder. "To live here," one Panhandler tells Bob, "it sure helps if you are half cow and half mesquite and all crazy." The narrative follows Bob's hapless quest to ink a deal, but Proulx's mission is bigger than that. She's out to tell the story of the Panhandle itself, to write an entirely new literary territory into existence. With the help of a menagerie of eccentric characters set down in "the most complicated part of North America," Proulx succeeds admirably. --Claire Dederer
Book Description
From Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award winner Annie Proulx comes That Old Ace in the Hole, an exhilarating story brimming with language, history, landscape, music, and love.
Bob Dollar is a young man from Denver trying to make good in a bad world. Out of college and aimless, Dollar takes a job with Global Pork Rind, scouting out big spreads of land that can be converted to hog farms. Soon he's holed up in a two-bit Texas town called Woolybucket, where he settles into LaVon Fronk's old bunkhouse for fifty dollars a month, helps out at Cy Frease's Old Dog Café, and learns the hard way how vigorously the old Texas ranch owners will hold on to their land, even when their children want no part of it.
Robust, often bawdy, strikingly original, That Old Ace in the Hole traces the waves of change that have shaped the American West over the past century -- and in Bob Dollar, Proulx has created one of the most irrepressible characters in contemporary fiction.

A fun cowboy read.......2007-06-20
The things that caught my attention in this novel were the personification of landscape, role of landscape, use of back-story, use of story within the story, and use of stereotype.
Although I did not find the book particularly compelling, and I imagine that it is not among Proux's best, the novel nonetheless moves quickly and gives a view of a landscape and a culture not often explored in literature--the dry ranch life of rural Texas.
Proux opens the novel with a long, ambling description of landscape. She describes the history of the land, the naming of the land, the impact of people on the land. The land is at once beautiful and ruined.
The novel ends with the idea of a land revitalized by the people through a more sustainable form of ranching. The community foils a plot to bring large-scale hog farming to the land, an operation that would spoil the land with lakes of hog poo. As I think about it, this is the true movement of the novel--this change in the way in which people interact with this landscape. There is also a change in the protagonist--Bob Dollar.
Bob Dollar is a wounded man, abandoned by his parents on the doorstep of his gay uncle's junk shop. The uncle and his partner did a fine job raising Bob, but he can never really get over his sense of abandonment and he has a misguided sense of duty. Dollar works for the hog company that is trying to buy up land.
It feels as though Bob is only a necessity to the telling of the story. I do not find his sense of abandonment all that compelling and as Proux moves back to it in an effort to give justification for his action, it feels contrived, forced to fit where it perhaps should not.
The characters that live on the land, the ranchers and business owners, save the book. They are far more interesting than Bob Dollar. And I could not help but wish the story were about one of them--the Cowboy Monk, the obsessive compulsive sheriff, the dozen or so women, young and old, who carry the stories of that particular community.
The book has at its core the desire to make a particular political statement about the people of the rural west. It presents the reader with stereotypes and then quickly breaks apart those stereotypes--and those are the moments when the book really shines. It also speaks to the idea of sustainable farming practices and value added commodities in Western agriculture--which all felt somewhat tired to me out here in Oregon, land of value added everything. But perhaps it is new information to people living in the East. I would have much preferred hearing more of the stories of those old ranch women.
Proux does not shy away from back-story. She uses objects (shoes, cheap plastic jewelry) to dive into her character's history. And these stories are always engaging.
I wonder about the value of having an outsider, Bob Dollar, tell the story of this place. The book is populated with other, far more interesting characters. And I constantly wanted to hear more of them.
Late history of the Texas Panhandle.......2007-02-05
The story drags as it informs. Hard to continue it, hard to quit it. One learns partly where the settlers came from, Germany, but not where the others came from and where the Panhandle got its religion: Puritans and Fundies. The sense of place and characters is incredible, as if one were there. I think, if you want to understand the mentality of a bedrock Bush supporter, then simply read this book. One should in addition read Larry McMurtry's "Walter Benjamin at the Dairy Queen", which tells more of the earlier story of the settlement of the Texas Highlands (we rarely drove through there in winter without facing an ice storm, and the remaining grasslands in that season are incredible to see). In particular, McMurtry explains why women of the earlier generations of the Panhandle 'did not talk'. By the time Proulx got there, they couldn't stop talking.
Ok, ok, 5 stars!
A fun and pleasurable read.......2007-02-02
Another well-executed profile from Annie Proulx of a rudderless clod who fumblingly finds his small measure of grace in life. As in the Shipping News, the main character is gradually prodded towards a new level of awareness by the subtle native beauty of an unfamiliar landscape, its rich buried history, and the colorful characters that help him unravel it.
Not as haunting as Shipping News, but nearly as funny. Fantastic characters and dialog, and interesting tidbits of history, too. At times this book looses its focus, and its plot does tend to drift along a bit and takes a few dead-end turnoffs -- but still, That Old Ace in the Hole is a highly pleasurable and frequently charming read. Proulx is a helluva talented writer in full command of her powers.
The Unexceptional Made Exceptional.......2006-12-30
Proulx has once again given us a captivating story about the most mundane and unexceptional set of circumstances imaginable.
In this story we have Bob Dollar, a young man who has lived much of his life without purpose, suddenly hired by Global Pork Rind to scout out possible hog farm locations in the Texas Panhandle. Though he doesn't care one iota about the hog farming industry and he personally thinks that hog farms ruin the quality of life wherever they spring up, he is determined to complete his job because so many people in his past have left things unfinished. Little did he know that in investigating the lands and people he hopes will sell out, he would build relationships with both not easily set aside.
Though Proulx gives us a story devoid of any major action or catastrophe, she nails every aspect of what it means to be a human with inexplicable emotions and passions, and I can only imagine that if I were to visit the Texas Panhandle, the people from this novel would likely be who I would meet.
Her usual aptitude for ingenuous dialogue, wit, and charm exude from the pages of this work. Her characters, as easy to imagine as your next-door neighbor, grow on you despite all their quirks and shortcomings (perhaps also like your next-door neighbor). I thoroughly enjoyed reading this novel and suspect that you will as well.
Wild in Wooly(bucket) .......2006-11-29
I just finished a weeklong trip to Paris, about 4 hours of which were spent whipping through this thoroughly entertaining comic novel by Annie Proulx, whom I knew before only as the author of the story upon which the wonderful film "Brokeback Mountain" (anything but comic) was based. Proulx out-McMurtrys the master of Panhandle literature as she takes us to Woolybucket, TX through the eyes of young Bob Dollar, a recent college graduate trying to find his place in the corporate world. Dollar (known also to the locals as Dime and Nickel) is dispatched to the Texas panhandle as a site scout for Global Pork Rind, a pork processing conglomerate, which thinks of pigs not as animals, but as pork units. What a way Proulx has with names and cultures--Bob, who works for Ribeye Cluke, lives with his Uncle Tam and his junk business partner "Bromo" Redpoll, and meets LaVon Kronk and her son Coolbroth, 90-year-old town matriarch Freda Beautyrooms, bedwetting and sister-loving sheriff Hugh Dough, and rancher/adulterer Francis Scott Keister (and his wife "Taz") among others. They all swirl in a duststorm of a story about who decides how to use the land--even such apparently godforsaken land as Woolybucket County. A few of the oddball characters seemed placed purely for comic effect, but the overall impact is still a rollicking and delightful read.

Hog Heaven.......2006-04-15
Annie Proulx's("The Shipping News") wonderful sense of humor brings to life a group of characters with names like LaVon Fronk, Ace and Tater Crouch, the Beautyrooms family, and Frances Scott Keester. As the story progresses, you will find these humorous names fit the characters perfectly. They are residents of the Texas town of Woolybucket, also very fitting. Bob Dollar, an unemployed college grad, who's life is going nowhere, takes a job with a company called, and get this..."Global Pork". His mission, which he tries to accomplish undercover, is to try and convince the quirky but lovable residents to sell their ranch properties to hog farms operators.
The residents know all about hog farms. The can't get away from the stench that is so bad it often sends some of them to the hospital. Bob thinks this is cause enough to make them sell and get the heck out of there. But these are a loyal and proud group of ranchers. Their parents and their parents before worked the land that they have come to love so much, and are a might bit stubborn about letting it go. The personal stories of the people of Woolybucket and Bob Dollar are intertwined into the story and make for some very entertaining adventures, and a growing relationship. Bob is on the verge of getting fired if he doesn't make a sale, and really needs the work. How will he handle the town he has become a part of?
Each character has their little idiosyncrasies that will bring a smile to your face and keep it there. I enjoyed the read very much. There is an abridged, but wonderfully read audio edition(cassette) of this book, read by Arliss Howard. If interested in that edition the ISBN is 0743524977. Put the number in the book search and it will take you to it and see my review(5/18/05) for more details on the audio edition.
Spend some time in Woolybucket,you'll be in hog heaven and you may not want to leave!
Enjoy.....Laurie
"To live here it sure helps if you are half cow...".......2005-09-19
Stating that "nothing of the original prairie remain[s]," Proulx presents the Texas Panhandle through the eyes of 25-year-old Bob Dollar, a newcomer, who sees railroad tracks, grain elevators, drive-in restaurants, "welcome to" signs with mottoes, a plywood Jesus, irrigation rigs, condensation tanks, fences, "the raw material of human use," and not incidentally, long, gray hog farms, with their effluent lagoons in the rear, the stench overpowering the grasslands for miles around.
Hired by Global Pork Rind to find the acreage needed for additional hog farms, Bob ingratiates himself with the townsfolk of the Panhandle town of Woolybucket, posing as a buyer of land for luxury housing. His meetings with cutely named townsfolk--Francis Scott Keister, Tater and Ace Crouch, Jerky Baum, Pecan Flagg, Blowy Cluck, Coolbroth Fronk, and Waldo Beautyrooms--and his discovery of their stories constitute the loose primary plot of this novel, which more closely resembles a quirky collection of short stories than a fully developed novel. "Eccentricities were valued and cultivated" here, but none of these earthy folk are eccentric enough to want more hog farms.
Proulx raises some big issues here, such as the alarming depletion of the water table in the Panhandle, the pollution from oil fields and chemical plants, and the illnesses associated with proximity to hog farms, but she keeps her narrative from becoming polemical by weaving these into other threads about windmill-building, quilting, cock-fighting, social life in the local diner, and plans for the upcoming Barbwire Festival. She keeps things light and amusing, using the eccentricities of her characters and the setting to spice up her narrative about their not-very-exciting lives.
Proulx is a real pro in controlling the pace of the novel. Whenever it starts to bog down or threaten to become dull, she gives us a new, outrageous name or an amusing digression (like the one about a lightbulb cemetery), or references to Bob's uncle's collection of "art plastic," or the visit of Bob's ex-con friend who, with some friends, made a recording of flatulent "Rock Hits From Prison." All these save the novel from being prairie-flat, as Bob tries to save his job without hurting the people he meets. The book is entertaining, and its feel-good ending, which explains the title, will please many readers, but ultimately, I found myself wanting more substance and story and less artifice. (3.5 stars) Mary Whipple

Lori Wick strikes again.......2003-06-25
I love lori wicks books your always ensured for a happy ending like this one this is one of my favorite series. But I liked this story about ross and amanda because the fact that ross wouldnt consider some one who didnt share his faith (just as god wants), but helped her to christ.and then found love to share with her
A great and entertaining read!.......2002-05-25
I enjoy all of Lori Wick's books. This is one of my favorites, as it is a story really about love and family. It's well worth reading as are all of her books. The characters have chalanges, but through it all remain loving and rely on God. It's worth the 5 stars.
The second best book in the series.......2001-03-29
I thought this book was a good end to the Place Called Home Series. After being disappointed with Song for Silas, and the Long Road Home it was very refreshing to read such a well put together story. I thought Lori Wick did a great job tying up all the loose ends in her character's lives, however, I still think it lacked some of the punch I've come to expect from Lori Wick.
Bre's.......2001-03-18
This was a very sweet book. Unfortunately, in some parts it wasn't much more than that. The thing with Lori Wick's characters is that more often than not they are . . . well, too perfect. I have met plenty of people who are as good as the characters in many Christian novels, but I have never met anybody who did not struggle with being good all the time. Still, Mandy and her siblings were quite realistic, and it was my attachment to Mandy that gave this book four stars instead of three. The big disappointment was that what should have been the climax was only remembered by Mandy, not experienced. All the tension had just . . . disappeared. I felt something not unlike jet-lag.
Just finished this wonderful book!.......2000-01-05
I love Lori Wick's books. And this series is soo good. I received the first three for Christmas, and made my husband run out to the bookstore with me to purchase this one! The whole Cameron family (featured in this series) is such a role model for any Christian. Lori Wick has done it again! Her books are so poignant and moving. Makes me reflect on my Christian life and marriage and how I want it to be better.

Three Generations of Memories.......2001-06-24

Memories of times and things gone by surface as the mother packs her mother's belongings and moves her into her own home. Grandmother's hat box, the hand-made wooden box long forgotten by mother, and the daughter's own shoebox provide 3 generations of the joy of saving!
Book Description
We live in a forgetful age, and our collective memory loss can be dangerous. In this intriguing book, Charles Pinches examines the nature of true memory as it appears in family, nation, and church, the three structures that preside over memory's territory. He takes a look at the power of memory in a fallen world, shining light on both the lies that disconnect us and the solution to the problem. Pinches deftly shows how memory is tied to community and ultimately to God. Pastors, lay leaders, and readers in the emerging church movement will appreciate this clear exploration of how memory works to make us human.
Product Description

Book Description
From science fiction legend Alan Dean Foster comes a thrilling new Pip and Flinx adventure, wherein a certain red-haired, green-eyed young man blessed (or cursed) with strange powers finds himself and his mini-dragon sidekick on a top-secret mission concerning deep space, alien worlds . . . and a primordial horror intent on devouring all of it.
In the outer depths of the universe lies the Great Emptiness, where something dreadful lurks, hidden behind a great gravitational lens of dark matter. Something horrific that howls and writhes and rages across three hundred million light-years of space–and is now heading straight for the Commonwealth and moving faster all the time.
One slim chance exists to avert catastrophe, and only Flinx can take it. Roaming the galaxy is a conscious planet-size weapons system, the legacy of a long-extinct race. As Flinx is the only one who has ever experienced mental contact with the machine, it is his job to find the powerful alien artifact and coax it into joining the battle against the behemoth from beyond.
So Pip and Flinx valiantly sail into the unknown aboard their little spaceship, which is immediately forced down for emergency repairs on planet Arrawd, home to less advanced sentients and therefore off-limits to space travelers. But what with Arrawd being very beautiful, and Flinx being Flinx, this particular rule doesn’t stand a chance.
Now, Flinx is no stranger to murderous attacks and stalking assassins–evading them occupies most of his waking hours–but to be besieged by hordes bent on worshipping him as a god? Worse still, escaping this fate is going to be as impossible as fulfilling his dire mission. What’s a deity to do?
From the Hardcover edition.

A diversion but a good read.......2007-09-19
While RUNNING FROM THE DEITY may diverge from the central story line of the series, it does add more depth to the universe of Flinx. As in BLOODHYPE, which I came to enjoy due to the way Flinx is introduced and has somewhat limited "screen time", RFTD is another view into Flinx's life away from trying to save us all. Remember: These are the "adventures" of Flinx and Pip and as the adventure continues so does Flinx's maturation.
Pip and Flinx.......2007-06-08
Whenever I read a Pip and Flinx book, I have such fun I hope A.D. Foster had half of much fun writing it. If you're looking for something profound, find something else. This is escapism and just plain enjoyable.

ADF does it again!.......2007-01-09
Mr. Foster has a great style in writing which is both accessible to the new reader and entertaining for the veteran. In this latest installment we were not disappointed.
The story takes Pip and Flinx on another side road from the main "save the universe" stroyline. The Aann are a race which brook no humor or mery, or is this truly the case. Every group (race) has their rebels. Flinx discovers what (cultural) rebels do in the context of the Aann race. I found this to be a refreshing study of one of the major racial players in the ADF universe.
The disappointment was small in this installment: I wished we had seen more of the action we saw in the Tar-Aiym Krang (arguably the best of the series). However, there is plenty of intrigue and excitement to go around.
It will be great to see Pip & Flinx meet back up with Bran Tse Mallory and Truzenzuzex...
Failed to advance the story.......2006-07-25
I reviewed this when it first came out and it looks like my review and some others I recall were "lost". This story stunk. I love this series but the last several installments were very lame. Save your money until he gets back to telling the story we all fell in love with. Tell me about the galactic threat, his growing abilities, his sometime girlfriend...come on man.
Barely worth reading..........2006-06-23
This book and the one that preceeded it 'Sliding Scales' appear to be nothing but filler in the Pip & Flinx story arc. They add next to nothing to the story we've been reading for a couple decades now. When I saw them sitting next to each other on the library shelf I was beside myself with glee, new Flinx! Sad to say I was sorely disapponted by what I got. Mr. Foster's writing style has changed in just the last couple years, the humor, the characters to care about, the continuing story line that started in Tar-Ayim all seem to have been lost. I read the book, I didn't really enjoy it. On with the story, Mr. Foster! Enough filler and books that go nowhere!

Egermeiers Bible Story Book.......2007-07-13
This Bible Story book has always been my favorite. It is true to Scripture and has beautiful illustrations and especially after each story has questions to ask the children which helps them to remember and think about the lesson to be learned from each story. I give Egermeiers Bible Story Book to each grandchild and also to the little ones in our church.
An excellent choice.......2007-02-13
If you are looking for a well-written Bible story book, Elsie Egermeier's is an excellent choice. Even adults who know and love the Bible will gain new insights as they read this book. Two equally good Bible story books are by Rev. Jesse Lyman Hurlbut and Pearl Buck.
Friends in California with three young children recently wrote me that their kids LOVE the Egermeier Bible Story Book. They read stories aloud each Sunday as they drive to church.
The BEST Bible story book ever written!.......2007-01-20
I had this book read to me numerous times as a child, and I read it myself as a teenager.
About three years ago, when my wife and I were expecting our first child, I was looking for this book and couldn't find one ANYWHERE (out of print) - my sister has the copy we had as children and absolutely WOULDN'T part with it (her kids are older, but they still read from it daily).
In despair, I was planning to digitally photograph each page of the copy my sister has and try to have it printed and bound somehow, but I finally found one used here on amazon.
If you want the very BEST Bible story book every written; buy, this one TODAY while you can find it!
Amazing way to learn and understand the Bible.......2006-11-16
This book makes God's Word accessible to children, providing them with an overview of both Testaments. It is suitable for young children first being introduced to Scripture, as well as for teens and adults who have a hard time reading through the Bible. It's kind of like Cliff Notes...not a substitute for reading the real thing, but an invaluable study tool.
My kids and I are currently reading this aloud, and no doubt it will be re-read many times.
The next best choice to the KJV Bible!!!.......2006-08-19
If you are looking to share the TRUTH with children about the Holy Scriptures, this is the ONLY Bible story book to consider.
This well-done, intellegently-easy-to-understand book (which was originally written in the early 1900's...this version is mildly abridged) uses God-inspired TRUTH to captivate it's audience rather than cartoons and silly nonsense.
If you are looking to avoid the 'dumbing down' of God's Holy Word, sticking as close to Scripture without the extra details that lose those of a shorter attention span, THIS is your book!
Invest in this gem with confidence...you'll enjoy it as much as the children :)
