Jose Marti : Cuban Patriot and Poet (Hispanic Biographies) Home by David Goodnough See More Details Library Binding - 128 pages (May 1996) Enslow Publishers, Inc.; ISBN: 0894907611 ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.50 x 9.26 x 6.23 Reviews From Booklist , September 1, 1996 Gr. 6^-10. The writing is uninspired, but schools needing books about the revered nineteenth-century Cuban rebel leader will welcome this account in the Hispanic Biographies series. Marti's personal story is integrated with a history of Cuba's freedom struggle with the Spanish. Several of his simple, beautiful poems are quoted in Spanish and in English. A glossary, chronology, and bibliography are included, as well as chapter source notes. Hazel Rochman From Horn Book These three formulaic biographies give too much specific information about career accomplishments and never reveal the true character and personality of each man. Contributions to Hispanic society are discussed, but little information is given about each subject's early life. The black-and-white photographs and illustrations are poorly reproduced.

Dove's artistic range seems boundless, fed by her knowledge of world history and literature. But a generous spirit guides her intellectual curiosity: she does not want to learn facts or to observe art and artifacts; she wants to engage with the world and its people. Whether writing about herself, her grandparents, an ancient Chinese princess, a German woman widowed during World War II, mythological characters, the blues singer Bessie Smith, or even a fossilized fish, Dove brings readers closer to ourselves, our world, and each other. She has read widely and travelled extensively, but she also grounds her work in her own intimate, ordinary experiences as a daughter, granddaughter, wife, mother, African American, woman and teacher.

I am not, in general, a great lover of poetry, but he does such an excellent job conveying the exact details of a time and a place, of another era of medicine. Being a doctor myself helps to understand some of the situations, but he writes so specifically that anyone can see what he's trying to say. I like his use of exact, conversational quotes, and his unromantic, but generous view of his, often unhelpful, patients. Insightful This is an interesting series of short stories by the great American poet, William Carlos Williams. Williams was actually Dr. Williams and practiced pediatrics for many years. These stories are built around a series of clinical vignettes from medical practice in the early part of the century. While these stories are not great literature, they are very good and Williams is very good at descriptions of clinical phenomena. Some of the clinical entities at the center of the stories are now rarely seen. These stories convey the experience of medical practice in this era very well and several stories have considerable emotional power. This book will be of interest to anyone who likes American literature but will perhaps find the most appreciative audience among physicians.
