Book Description
Out of school, out of work, and out of motivation, Abby Rose is contemplating her life and wondering what to do next. It's the kind of situation that would get some girls down, but luckily Abby's got a heart the size of Texas-and a bank account to match. But when she discovers the gardener dead in her greenhouse, Abby realizes what she needs to do with herself: she needs to solve a murder...

Great detective.......2006-08-24
First in the Yellow Rose series, this series is in Texas, featuring Abby Rose. Abby's gardener is murdered, and she wants to find out why: why he was killed and why he was there. Abby's fraternal twin Kate helps her run the computer business that their father left them, and she also gets roped into helping Abby find the answers to her questions. In this, Abby finds out answers to other questions, ones she wished she hadn't asked. I found this to be better than your average cozy - I was leery of the basis of the spoiled rich girl playing detective - but Abby redeems herself.
Witty, Charming Début!.......2006-07-29
Introducing Abby Rose...a privileged woman living in River Oaks, Texas...a wealthy town near Houston. In the first book in the Yellow Rose Mystery series, we find that Abby has inherited her late father's home and computer business along with her twin sister, Kate. The business runs fine without them, and they are able to pursue other interests while having a steady income. Having no real ambition in her life, and feeling left out now that Kate is finishing her dissertation and moving in with her boyfriend, Abby longs for something meaningful to fill her time. When their hard-working gardener is found dead after he promises to share a large family secret with the twins, Abby begins to investigate both his death and her past. Questions about their adoption begin to loom again in Abby and Kate's mind, and she wonders if they have the whole truth about their birthparents. When the trail to a killer leads her directly to a shady adoption agency, Abby begins to ask some tough questions. Will she discover the killer and the key to her past in time to stop a murderer on the loose?
This was a great start to a new series! The fact that Abby and her twin sister, Kate, sometimes work together in the book (but are not "joined at the hip"), made a likeable, interesting combination. The mystery itself offered a lot of twists and turns, and I was kept guessing throughout the book as to the twin's past, and to the identity of the killer. The only thing that I disliked in the book was the overuse of clichés. I know previous reviewers have mentioned this as well, and I completely agree with their feelings on the subject. However, the book was too good to pass up even with this minor flaw, and I will eagerly pick up future installments in this fun, witty series.
The next book in the series is called "A Wedding to Die For". Enjoy!
Enjoyable Read.......2005-12-16
I enjoyed the book. However, I agree with the Reviewer that said the main character used too many bad cliches. It did seem forced and got to be a little "too much". I thought the ending could have had a more interesting twist but I knew that wasn't going to happen because it is a series so all the main characters had to stay in tact.
Delightful.......2005-08-15
My second book by Leann Sweeney and I laughed all the way through at the antics of Abby Rose, an amateur sleuth who manages to get in and out of trouble in delightful ways. I'll be buying a third book by Ms. Sweeny as they are easy reads and keep you entertained.
Fabulous first mystery! Abby's a winner........2005-02-15
Abby Rose is trying to decide what to do with her life. Since she has a large bank account, she doesn't have to rush to decide. Her twin Kate is soon moving out to be with her boyfriend, and Abby doesn't know what she will do with the large house their father left them - it's too big for just her.
After she discovers her gardner, Ben, dead in the greenhouse, she realizes how little she knew about him. She begins to look into his life so that she can express her condolences. That just opens up more questions, like who killed Ben's wife years before? And why was he working for Abby's father?
Abby contracts with her ex-husband, who swears he is clean and getting his life together, to help her renovate the house in Galveston. It hasn't been lived in for years. She finds herself having to interact with him more than she likes.
The sexy detective from the Houston P.D. who is investigating Ben's death, adds some spice to Abby's dull life. Especially when he tells her that Ben was poisoned. Now Abby is determined to unravel the mystery surrounding Ben and who killed him. She finds more questions to have to find answers to.
In her investigation, she finds herself in many sticky situations. Can she discover the truth before someone puts an end to her?
This is the first Yellow Rose Mystery. LeAnn Sweeney has a real winner. I had trouble putting this book down. Abby and Kate are terrific. The Texas setting is fabulous. I've always wanted to go to Galveston, and I feel like I've at least had a short visit there. I just started reading A Wedding to Die For, the second in this series. It looks to be just as great as the first.
I highly recommend this book!
Book Description
"Daughter of the Yellow River is a testament to perseverance, determination, courage, and success." - Deepak Chopra, best-selling author of Peace Is the Way
"Diana Lu's memoir effectively weaves autobiography, advice, cultural insights, and career journey to reveal what many women already know: work is intensely personal. Her self-reflection is contagious, and hopefully her perseverance will be as well." - Joanne Gordon, former Forbes staff writer and author of Career Bliss: Secrets from 100 Women Who Love Their Work
"Daughter of the Yellow River is an inspiring story of a remarkable woman. From the deprivation of the Chinese Cultural Revolution to success in the Western world, it depicts the victory of determination and pluck over personal and business adversity." - James Pammenter, former director, KPMG Management Consulting
"This book vividly proves the power of `You will never know until you try.' Diana Lu provides a simple, compelling approach to building the life of our dreams. This is an authentic road map for anyone pursuing lasting and transformational change in their lives." - Darryl Quan, chief financial officer, Image Global Impact.
"Diana's beauty masks a dynamic entrepreneur who knows what she wants to do and does it. Her life story takes her from the struggles of an impoverished childhood in China to success in a highly competitive global industry to a commitment to helping people forge their own paths to fulfillment. She shares her challenges and disappointments, triumphs and achievements, and the lessons she has learned about business and about life." - John Edward, former divisional director, Corning Incorporated.
"Inspirational, motivational, and stimulating are words that describe this book. Diana Lu's `can do, can achieve' attitude makes this book a must for those who want to get more out of life. She is proof that if you are an intelligent woman dealing in a male-dominated industry, you can be successful while maintaining an air of sophistication and femininity." - Mike Yell, general manager, Fujitsu Australia & New Zealand
When Diana Lu was three years old, her family was forced to leave their comfortable middle-class life in the city to live an impoverished coal-mining village at the edge of the Gobi Desert for China's culture revolution "re-education."
Life in that remote place was a constant struggle against hunger and fear. Passionate & determined, Diana resolved to create a better life based on her own talents and dreams; she turned down prestigious job after medical school. Overcoming parental & societal objections, she explored university teaching, real estate, and other fields before finding her niche as a top executive in the optical fiber industry. In 1997 Diana moved to the United States, and launched her own international enterprise, melding the Western & Chinese business cultures to work with clients globally.
Operating in a competitive, male-dominated high-tech field, she achieved astounding success -- from earning $30 a month in 1993 to in ten years making sales worth hundreds of millions of dollars. This inspirational book -- part memoir, part guidebook to personal and business success -- illustrates her remarkable journey.
* I am a daughter of the Yellow River. Its waters flow within me like the blood in my veins.
* I didn't need to define or limit myself by the circumstances I came from -- what counted was where I was heading.
* I realized that our lives will be what we choose to make them… That can be a daunting challenge, but the rewards are immeasurable.
Customer Reviews:
Three valuable themes.......2007-06-01
I met the author at an entrepreneurship conference in San Francisco and found the meeting interesting enough to order the book. I found the book to be a mixture of biography, history, and motivational parables. While the biography was perhaps a bit too long, it provided a stage for discussing three very important issues. The first was the potentially destructive impact of dogmatic national policies (The Chinese Cultural Revolution) on a family at the very personal level. The second theme presented the difficulties inherent in and evolution of the relationship between Asia-born parents and their westernized children. The final theme presented the riskiness of small businesses doing business with big companies in China.
Bizarre Revenge Fantasy.......2007-05-27
Buy this book--if you want to read a bizarre, narcissistic revenge fantasy. Otherwise, save your money.
Grabbed Me!.......2007-05-15
The book just grabbed me ...
Being a fan of Eastern Phylosophies and Worlds, thsi was just my best ride. China from a point of view that is heartmoving. A distinctive culture, on stage for the world.
Reading this book feels like Diana Lu is telling it live to you. It's not and easy ride since it might change the way you experience a couple of things in your life. Escpcially if your are western like me.
Enjoyment and understanding of global human life at large.
Incredible! Must Read! Delicate prose.
Creat chance for yourself!.......2007-01-12
No pay no gain? No, no pain no gain. For this generation (born 1970's even 1980's) how to chase dream, complete dream, could find some clues from "Daughter of the Yellow River". For western, through Diana Lu' story to know her growing background and understand china.
Height of narcissism!.......2006-12-30
Albeit it started well and gave some insight into an average family's life in China under the Gang of Four, it quickly derailed and became self-adulatory, patronizing and boring. I could not stand her own praise of her smartness, insights about life and prettiness. What's up with all those self portraits of her in different cities? As another reviewer suggested a visit to a shrink might help. To summarize, ended up being a waste of time; Don't waste your money on this book.
Book Description
In the best tradition of southern storytelling, Uke Rivers Delivers features raconteurs as beguiling as the tales they tell. These lyrical, darkly humorous monologues portray a range of denizens of the American South desperately trying to come to grips with their inherited pasts. A Confederate reenactor receives a message from the beyond to lay to rest the remains of Stonewall Jackson's horse. A docent at Washington and Lee University's Lee Chapel offers prim instruction on the facts and legends about "the General" with both reverence and irony. The young son of a lewd, alcoholic, self-dubbed evangelist acquires the wits—and the will—for survival by protecting the family's sunflower crops. A midget ukelele virtuoso is so surprised by his own eruption into violence that he can attribute it only to genetics. One of Jeff Davis's fellow cross-dressers; the killer of John Wilkes Booth; a Rebel deserter whose superior exacts his pound of flesh—all these characters and more, through their twisted and torn vernaculars, seek understanding and revival in R. T. Smith's superb collection. AUTHOR BIO: R. T. Smith's fiction has been published in Best American Short Stories, New Stories from the South, Best American Mystery Stories, and two Pushcart Prize anthologies. He is the author of thirteen volumes of poetry and has received the Library of Virginia Poetry Award. Raised in Georgia and North Carolina, he now lives in Rockbridge County, Virginia. He is the editor of Shenandoah:The Washington and Lee University Review.

Uke River does Deliver.......2007-01-27
This is a wonderful, poetic short story collection. The writing is like lightening. Some of stories (Uke River Delivers & Bitterwolf) rank among the finest stories I've ever read.
R.T. Smith's writing, though charged, controlled, and always rhythmic is sometimes hard to follow. But so is Laurence Durrell and James Joyce. And, I dare say, they couldn't write stories with such historical, emotional flair.
I highly recommend this to anyone, especially those interested in intelligent, Southern literary fiction.

Insightfull, well reasearched, covers every angle.......2002-12-17
I have studied under this profesor for two years and he studied under one of the leaders in the field at Yale. And let me tell you he knows his stuff and this book is proof of that. All the knoweldge and expertise and time in the field pays off in this fasinating study of Chinese technology and how it applies to one of the major forces that has shaped Chinese history. If you are interested in Chinese history, engineering or the history of technology this book is a must have.
Book Description
After years of passionate labor, Sam Hamill has translated both familiar and little-known Chinese poems from three millennia (330 BC to the 16th century) to compile the most comprehensive collection of its kind. Crossing the Yellow River:Three Hundred Poems from the Chinese represents a "lifetime's devotion to the classic originals," in the words of W. S. Merwin, begun when Hamill was introduced to classical Chinese by Kenneth Rexroth and the Beat poets of the late 1950s.
Unlike earlier translators of Chinese and Japanese poetry, Hamill attempts to bring the poems into English with their directness and simplicity intact, at the same time attempting to remain true to the poet's orginal message. Hamill includes the rarely-translated social poems of Tu Fu, the poems and songs of Tzu Yeh and Li Ch'ing-Chao, and lyrical selections from Li Po, Shih Ching, Wang Wei, Su Tung-p'o and others. Hamill's introduction provides the most definitive overview to date of aesthetic impulses propelling Chinese poetry and reveals his own reasons for his "lifetime's devotion." "I sit at the feet of the great old masters of my tradition not only to be in a position to pass on their many wonderful gifts," Hamill says, "but to pay homage while in the very act of nourishing, sustaining and enhancing my own life."
Sam Hamill's celebrated translations include The Art of Writing: Lu Chi's Wen Fu; The Essential Chuang Tza; The Essential Basho; The Spring of My Life & Selected Haiku by Kobayashii Issa and Only Companion: Japanese Poems of Love & Longing. He is the author of a dozen volumes of original poety and three collections of essays. He is Founding Editor of Copper Canyon Press, director of the Port Townsend Writers' Conference and contributing editor at The American Poetry Review. He lives in Port Townsend, Washington.

An Embarassment of Riches.......2001-06-09
Here are 270 pages of the most sublimely beautiful poems in English that I have ever read. Sam Hamill has brought us one step closer to the music of an ancient and culturally distant aesthetic that, until the modernist revolution of the last century, was closed to English speaking readers and writers.
It is difficult to overestimate the impact that Chinese poetry in translation had on modern poetry in English. Arthur Waley's *170 Chinese Poems* and Ezra Pound's enormously important adaptions in *Cathay* are cornerstones of modernism. Kenneth Rexroth's translations, starting with *100 Poems from the Chinese*, were equally as important to the last quarter of the 20th century. Moreover, the interest that these translations produced sparked an interest in world poetry, that completely transformed poetry in English during the last 50 years. The obvious issue that is always before the reader of poetry in translation is authenticity. Octavio Paz said all poetry is translation. Still, as a reader, it's impossible to know what distance is really spanned in the journey from Tu Fu's mouth to my ears.
I think this book goes a long way toward settling, if not answering some of these concerns. I don't read classical Chinese, so I don't know exactly how accurate these translations are. Nevertheless, Sam Hamill's informative (though somewhat loopy) introduction makes a strong case for thier reliability. By showing his method, he inspires confidence that not only are you reading beautiful English poems, but that what you're reading is speaking to over the bridge of centuries and cultures.
The center 100 pages of this amazing book contains probably the finest translations to date of China's great 8th century poets, Li Po, Wang Wei, and Tu Fu (who is, according to K. Rexroth, the greatest non-epic, non-dramatic poet in any language in the history of the world). These treasures are surrounded by a generous selection of poems dating from the 1st century BCE to the 16th century CE.
Whether you already love poetry or you want to start loving it, don't pass up the enrichment that these poems can bring to your life.
One of the best.......2001-04-27
The first book, after Rexroth, of Chinese poems I ever read from cover to cover in one sitting, for the pure joy of it, was Sam Hamill's first book of translations. Crossing the Yellow River is simply more and better, as far as I'm concerned. Great reading.

In this moving autobiographical picture book for older children, Chinese-Canadian artist and book illustrator Ange Zhang tells the story of his teenage involvement in China's Cultural Revolution. The son of a famous Chinese writer, Zhang grew up in a comfortable Beijing home with his extended family. When the Red Guards first infiltrate his school in 1966, he feels only pride, for both his parents are high-ranking officials in the Communist Party and helped bring Chairman Mao to power. But before long, he witnesses his father's public humiliation as an intellectual and finds himself blackballed from joining the Red Guards with the rest of his friends because he is one of the "bad guys."
In simple yet unflinchingly direct prose, Zhang describes how these injustices did nothing to dampen his fervour for Mao's revolution. To his mother's unspoken horror, he forms his own one-person unit of the Guards, shaving his head and arming himself against other rebel groups. "All I wanted," he recalls, "was to be just like the other kids, to wear the olive green uniform with the red armband." It is not until he climbs to the top of his house one day and gazes over the tiled roofs of Beijing, that he begins to see his way as an artist and an individual. Illustrated with lush digitally rendered pictures of everyday life during the Cultural Revolution, along with family photographs, Red Land, Yellow River delivers a poignant reminder about the essential vulnerability of youth. A fine appendix expands the historical context. --Lisa Alward
Book Description
When Mao's Cultural Revolution took hold in China in 1966, Ange Zhang was 13 years old. He lived with his family in Beijing, he attended school and excelled in drawing, and his father was a famous writer whose "Yellow River Cantata" was widely considered to be the anthem of the revolution. Yet soon, Ange's life — and his family's — would change forever.
Complementing this autobiographical narrative with evocative color illustrations, archival images, and some of his own black-and-white photos, Ange gives a moving account of difficult experiences: from his early longing to join his peers in the Red Guard, to witnessing his father being publicly humiliated, to his growing alienation and disillusionment. But he finds some good fortune, too: during his "reeducation" in the countryside, Ange discovers enough emotional space to develop his own ideas and to find that he, like his father, is an artist in his own right.
Customer Reviews:
gorgeous art , fascinating history and important lesson .......2005-10-18
Experience the Chinese Cultural Revolution through a teen's eyes in Ange Zhang's straightforward and poignant autobiography. After his father, an intellectual seen as a counter-revolutionary, is publicly humiliated and later arrested, Zhang's shame grew, as an adolescent's could, towards his own family. In 1966, at the age of 13, he wants desperately to fit in, and not be labeled the "bad guy's son". In time, Zhang creates his own faction of the Red Guard, alienating himself further from his family until an experience unravels his fervent idealism. Gradually, he is re-awakened when he discovers his father's hidden books. Locked in bookcases sealed with paper strips bearing the Red Guard's seals, Zhang takes the hinges off the book case doors to keep the locks and seals intact. Day after day he stays inside his house reading banned books by Victor Hugo, Charles Dickens, and Jack London. He realizes through reading that each of us is unique and needs to pursue our own destiny. By the end, his family is re-united and Zhang is able to pursue the life of an artist.
Zhang's moving account is illustrated with lush digitally rendered pictures of everyday life during Mao's Cultural Revolution, and accompanied by reproductions of period posters, black and white photos and artifacts. His striking artwork is reminiscent of silk-screened posters, and you will be astonished by his lovely work. A fine appendix expands the historical context.
Earning a *Starred Review* from Booklist, Zhang's stirring experience gently unpacks a hopeful message to resonate with all pre-teens: oppression cannot squelch individuality and the power of dreams. For ages 8 and older.

Book Description
This text had a major impact in its original Chinese version. Reviewed in the Far East Economic Review as 'one of the richest portraits of the Chinese countryside published in the reform era', the book charts a long journey through the hinterland region of the Yellow River undertaken by the author between 1994 and 1996. It examines in exhaustive detail the lives and work of peasants, Party and local government officials, providing a wealth of data on the nature of life in post-reform rural China. The author argues that global integration is but the latest 'great leap forward' in a succession of periodic reforms going back over a hundred years, that in every case it is China's farmers who bear the brunt of the changes, that in the past they have always rebelled, and, he predicts, they will do so again.

Personal view of a displaced person.......2003-03-15
Even after being a Civil War buff for years and years, it was after reading this book that I finally realized that this war wasn't a soldier's war but really a war about normal people who brought all their fears and worries and preoccupations with them to camp and the battlefield and learned to adjust to being soldiers, and that is what makes this book so interesting. Eli rarely speaks of battle or carnage, but rather focusing on the mundanities of camp life, or musing on some piece of news from back home, or apologizing for how he can't finish his letter correctly because "the boys are pestering me", or that he misses his mother more than anything in the world, that he'd love to be back on his "settlement", begs the local girls not to all get married before he can get back, or giving salutations to his "connections" and "inquiring friends".
The book doesn't have any footnotes except for an introduction at the beginning and a list of short bio's on the other people mentioned in the book. Landers was a middle to lower class yeoman farmer from Gwinnett County Georgia and it shows in his provincial worries, and his punctuation and spelling (very humerous), but Eli is an incredibly blunt, verbose, and honest writer. He wears his emotions on his sleeve and pours out his feelings and quite detailed observations of everything around him. He is constantly talking about what everyone is doing, what they're cooking, what the weather is like, where the camp is located, who's sick, and who dies. In one poignant and chilling part of the book, he mentions the death of a comrade who succumbed to fever and in a rare civilian letter, his sister writes back recounting the same soldier's funeral. He also gives out numerous instructions to his mother and sisters as to ploughing and sowing fields, taking care of the newly born horses (which consequently grow and cause him heartache for he doesn't want to give them up), giving advice to his little nephew, clarifying that, despite rumors, he hadn't "been killed" (he has to do this quite often), explaining the reasons for why his letters are "poor" or "sorry", and commenting on local news from the homefront. The book actually gives an interesting window into what life was like on an average farm in the 1860s thanks to the spattering of civilian letters and Eli's responses to his family. But rarely does he speak of the war itself except for a patriotic phrase here or there, or a brief overview of where they might be headed or what they had recently done. He often expresses his enjoyment of camp life and how he feels about the idea of a battle or just hanging about with his comrades. Yet, also, in nearly every single letter he mentions how he yearns for his home, misses everyone, wishes he was at home, and tells his mother that he's reconciling himself with God for the Eternal Life to come and that she should too. The awareness of death, from the very beginning to the end of the book, is acute and gives this work a dark and foreboding side. Tragedy strikes hard and often, the family endures quite a bit of hardship (also fascinatingly pointed out in a handful of surviving letters from the homefront that explain what's in shortage back home), and makes you marvel at the strength of the human spirit.
Through the course of the book Eli always sounds like a fellow fresh off a farm, though alternately he quite obviously sounds like he becomes a veteran soldier. But as his anecdotes become more war savvy as the book progresses, he never seems to stop being a civilian and that is what gives this collection it's profundity. These were the boys who fought this war and the people who endured it.
A fantastic, if not different, book. Not full of exciting battle descriptions, but an earnestly compelling, very poignant, and always fascinating look at the day to day life during the Civil War of one very endearing young man.
thoughts from the camp.......2000-04-13
Excellent history of the inner feelings of this soldier during his time in the army of the Confederacy. Simply, these are, word for word, his letters home to his mother. We get his thoughts, not the thoughts of a reviewer or historian. A true glimpse into the camp, not the battles, is what we find in Mr. Landers' letters home.
