1. The Indwelling Book seven in the "Left Behind" series by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins. Interesting read, but nothing on which to base your end times philosophy. Even if you follow the scenario it's all a little too "easy."
2. The Life You've Always Wanted by John Ortberg, Zondervan Publishers. Ortberg is a Pastor at Willow Creek Community Church, so that may be a negative for many freepers. But he offers some practical advice for living out your Christian walk.
3. When Character Was King by Peggy Noonan. Noonan takes an intimate look at the life of Ronald Reagan. 5 FREEPS - Should be a must for every freeper. I still miss Ronald Reagan.

If Two Shall Agree by Carroll Fergusen Hunt. The Story of Paul A. and Kay Rader, former General of the Salvation Army. Dr. Rader is now President of Asbury College in Wilmore, Kentucky.
Joseph Smith: The First Mormon by Donna Hill. Appears to be a pretty good historical read.

Did you ever want a real understnding as to how the balance of these two "wings" lifted the founders of our republic? THIS IS the book, IMHO.
The link above actually takes you to a page describing the 5th Edition
By Paul Mcfedries.
I innocently agreed to put up a web page for our Sportsmens club knowing nothing of HTML. Luckily, I found this little gem at a discount/closeout store for three bucks and grabbed it. Referring constantly to this book I did get the page up. It wasnt a work of coding art but it worked.
For the beginner (me) its very good. The style is conversational and lighthearted. Think HTML boot camp without all the yelling and screaming and pushups! Just kidding, MICHIGANDER! J The concepts are presented clearly and the examples, also available for copy/paste from the CD, are simple enough to be easily tried out and results seen. Theres even a selection of clip art and animated GIFs to get you started with graphics.
