Title: Finally a readable book for local history Review: The amazing deluge of tourism each summer truly ignores the elaborate history of some of New England's most beautiful coastline. For many of us who live or travel there when time and traffic allow there is this fine book to fill in the grey areas.Unfortunately, regional history is not as popular to most readers as a spy novel or biography. This book bounces between the author's journeys in Kayak along the islands and coastline and the chronological history of travellers and settlers to the coast. There are humorous accounts of indian encounters, misguided settlers and an all too unpleasant tale of life aboard the Mayflower. Not all as we had once been told in grammar school.The endnotes are substantial and the book can at times seem more academic than entertaining. However, I passed this on to two friends and we have laughed and shared our favorite stories over beverages. A good book and a nice read. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: stewie griffin the untold story Review: the write up proclaims "never before seen footage" making the consumer believe it is an original and unique film...in actuality, it is like one of those Bugs Bunny movies where they throw in 30 seconds of new stuff in between all the cartoons you have seen before...essientially, this is stewie and brian searching for stewies father stretched out over an hour...pretty disappointing Is the review positive or negative?
