Is this product review positive? Title: Short, but worth reading Review: This is a very short work studyin the role women played in Anglo-Saxon society. I think the work is mostly solid (with caveats, see below), and provides a unique look at gender roles in Anglo-Saxon society.In a work this short, one does not expect to find the authoritative study on the subject. I would have liked to see a longer work here. Additionally, a survey of important women in society does very little to show more general trends. For example, Joan of Arc's campaign shows very little about women in medieval French society by itself. I couldn't help feeling that Herbert was glossing over more difficult points.All in all, I would recommend reading this book among many others. I would not recommend it as the only book on the subject, however. Answer:
Yes

Is this product review positive? Title: Show music to hum to Review: This is a fine collection of songs from the musicals of Rodgers and Hammerstein. But by and large, it is only instrumental music. If you're looking for Rodgers AND Hammerstein, i.e., music and lyrics, look elsewhere. Answer:
No

Is this product review positive? Title: Poorly printed / published Review: This score is very poor quality in terms of readability... The French lyrics are barely discernible. It looks like the score has been copied too many times with a low quality copier. The English translation has just been typed-in (with an entirely different bold font and size) and placed in the score "wherever." Nothing lines up well. There don't seem to be many other "Pearl Fishers" publications available, but there has to be something better than this. Answer:
No

Is this product review positive? Title: Grew up with this book and buying it again. Review: This is a book for all ages. I grew up with this book when I was young. With it I came to know the contellations and astronomy. Today my career is in the field of science partialy because of writers such as H A Rey who took the time to make seemingly complex subjects understandable to everyone. I'm buying this book again so that I will have an up-to-date edition. I'm an amateur astronomer and I still use and love this book. I also rely on it mainly because my image of constellations was built on the information in this book. I can't see constellations as "a box with four sticks". I have to see them the way they are in this book. Answer:
