1.The Great Bridge by: David mccullough October 02, 1972
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $5.44
I have read all of David McCullough's books since May of 2008. They are all true masterpieces. The Great Bridge, along with Truman, are stand outs - but none disappoint! I visited the Brooklyn Bridge after reading this book and actualy saw the expanse for the first time. Before it was just a bridge. After reading the book it became alive with the story of the great(and not so great)people of the times. McCullough is an artist as well as a writer.

2.Build Your Own Electric Vehicle by: Seth Leitman, Bob Brant September 23, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $29.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $19.77 You Save: $10.18 (34%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $18.71
I ordered this book after reading the reviews that were mostly positive. When the book arrived I was surprise to find that it has been update in 2008 by Seth Leitman. The reviews I read suggested that some of the information in this book was dated. Please be informed that this book is up to date. This is a very good book with the right information to get the job done right. The math helps you to understand the reasons for the different options and decision that need to be made, but if you do not need that form of understanding the book gives a summary after each section of the best chooses without having to understand the math.

Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $14.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $10.19 You Save: $4.80 (32%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $2.50
This is a great book for kids who love trains! My younger four year old sons love reading it with me and my older six year old son likes looking through it independently. The pictures (photos) are interesting and there is great information all through the pages.

4.Flight: 100 Years of Aviation by: R.G. Grant September 02, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $20.75
Up to the amazing standards of the Smithsonian! Very informative. I would recommend it to anyone.

5.Train (Things That Go Board Books) by: DK Publishing October 20, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $3.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $0.01
The pictures are great and the wording is easy and accurate. My son just turned 3 and he enjoys it but we both would have liked more detailed explanations of how the trains work and what the different parts are called. Overall, a good choice for little train-lovers just starting out.

6.Terrific Trains (Amazing Machines) by: Tony Mitton April 15, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
My 2 year old loves this book!! He loves trains and this book is so catchy and cute that my son has parts memorized. He can almost read it back to me! This book also helped my son understand some different features like the signals, switches, tunnels, coach cars, and different features that make up a train. If your child loves trains, then this will further your young ones knowledge to some extent.

8.How to Build Model Railroad Benchwork, Second Edition (Model Railroader) by: Linn Hanson Westcott, Rick Selby 1996-08
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $16.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $11.53 You Save: $5.42 (32%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $9.94
I built 4 L-Girder tables using solely this book. Never done wood work before. If i can do it using this book, then anybody can. I think i would have given the book a full 5 stars if the examples had of been a little clearer. I think there is room for improvement in the layout of the book. It's layout is a little outdated. All in all though - a must have for building model railroad tables.

9.One Hundred and One Track Plans for Model Railroaders (Model Railroad Handbook, No. 3) (Model Railroad Handbook, No. 3) by: Linn Westcott August 28, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $15.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $10.85 You Save: $5.10 (32%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $7.75
I have several copies of this book in my library so I can always have one at hand. Some of them have worn out covers because I refer to them so often. It is loaded with ideas for designing ones own track plans. There are layouts for shelves, the ubiquitous 4x8 sheet of plywood, shelf around the room, fill the room, and monster unlimited space layouts. I agree with earlier reviewers that it is a must-have for anyone serious about model railroading. Some regard the actual plans in this book as "old school". This might be true, but the ideas are still there and are timeless. In contrast for "new school" plans one could also consider the excellent books by Iain Rice. Don't expect it to contain plans that will be a one-one match with sectional toy-train tracks, it was written when people laid their ... Read More

10.Bike, Scooter, and Chopper Projects for the Evil Genius by: Brad Graham, Kathy McGowan May 12, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $24.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $16.47 You Save: $8.48 (34%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $15.73
I purchased this book and also the Bicycle Builder's Bonanza by the same author because I wanted ideas on how to build my own recumbent bike or trike. The plans and details are awesome, and Brad often explains why certain design decisions were made. I think the best thing about the book is that it inspires me to go out and build something. My mind is already cranking on how to modify the designs presented in the book. Now, my only problem is deciding between the Delta Wolf and the Street Fox!
