Review title: Crap Product review: I've read it many times since my youth (early eighties) and I've read it again some other time. And my opinion hasn't changed: this book is crap.I mean, as a propaganda tool is superb (to some of my friends this was the bible), but as a reality analisis it sucks real bad and big time.Just compare the history of socialist Cuba and capitalist Chile, the antipodes in Galeano's cosmogony, since the sixties. Or take a look at the evolution of Uruguay (no natural resources) and Venezuela (full of natural resources).Both examples show the falacy of "Open Veins".

Review title: Enjoyable, wholesome fantasy for teenage boys Product review: This is one of the first Hardy Boys books that I read in my youth and it remains one of the best. It begins with Chet Morton being passed a counterfeit twenty-dollar bill and involves the counterfeiters as well as a group sabotaging a local factory engaged in secret industrial techniques. The action is regularly spaced, there is a double date with Callie Shaw and Iola Morton and Frank and Joe are knocked unconscious.While the action in the Hardy boys series is largely a teenage boys fantasy, it is a good one. I was so fascinated by the stories that I won a fifth grade reading contest by reading so many Hardy Boys books that I easily outdistanced the competition. There is little real violence and the reader must think a bit to follow the story. This combination makes the series some of the best and most enjoyable reading that budding men can do.

Review title: Violent Rape does not Equal Romance Product review: This book was great until the hero hauled the heroine off to brutally and violently rape her. Definitely not my idea of a romance.
