I think the books give a real good example of the life of a typical Venezuelan Boy how is in love with the game of baseball like all of the venezuelan kids. What I like the most is that is narrated from the boys point of view and the pictures are excellent they go really good with the text.

Is one of the best law book that i ever read, is very explicit, and cotains a lot of information.

Yes, is great!!!!

This is one of the best fictional books about Missions trips that I have ever read! The story follows the Brio gang (except for Solana) as they go to Venezuela for a two week mission trip with Brio magazine. The group gets separated, and the story follows Hannah and Jacie. The two work on a skit to perform on the street corners of Venezuela, and that is where Hannah begins to get mad at God because she feels that He isn't helping her on her quest to convert a certain amount of Venezuelans to Christianity. She can't seem to get her part right for the play, and her testimony on stage actually scares the people away. Hannah also encounters more disasters, such as an unexpected period, bad encounters with Venezuelan men, and she finds herself doing guard duty for the groups bags. Jacie, on the other hand, gets sick with bronchitis and finds herself mad at God as well, but because she envies another girl on the trip whose father came along--something of which makes Jacie miss her dad all the more. Jacie too, has some bad experiences, including two guys who like her and of whom she doesn't like back, and a bitter 24-year-old missionary who tells her his deepest secret. The main point of the book is where they learn about following God and listening to Him instead of doing what they think He wants them to do. The end result is that the girls find other ways to witness to others, and Jacie finally finds a Father.

Recuerdo en mi primer año en el Politecnico de las Fuerzas Armadas, en el mes de agosto del 87, sucedio esta nueva ofensa de parte del gobierno colombiano una abierta provocación un cobarde acto de guerra que nuestro gobierno nunca respondio.
El problema de nuestro gobierno era que el presidente estaba bajo el poder de su amante colombiana y nunca hubo la desición política de actuar para resolver el caso.
Recuerdo que al suceder el hecho los nuevos del politecnico pediamos nos hundieran la corbeta caldas y nos enviaran al frente de batalla como infantes de marina o soldados del ejercito, eso nunca sucedio.
Recuerdo con indiganción como los colombianos nos insultaron a través de medios impresos a nosotros y nuestra mujeres, esos insultos aún hoy permanecen sin venganza.
Leer el libro es adentrarse en la falta de desición historica de nuestros gobiernos y ver como nuestras gente de mar a diario hace hasta lo imposible por defender nuestra soberania y muchas veces es dejada a un lado y sin protección por nuestos gobernantes.
Venezuela es un país marino, nuestra gesta emancipadora esta signada con hechos maritimos de relevante importancia, la armada es nuestra arma más poderosa ayer, hoy y siempre.

Un excelente libro para poder entender la politica petrolera venezolana.

Mucho se dice de las malas costumbres que tenemos los venezolanos, sobre todo el facilismo y la falta de modestia, pero quienes lo dicen no conoce a la venezuela que trbaja de sol a sol la que se levanta entre las 4:00-5:00 am para ir a trabajar y regresa del trabjo entre las 8:00-9:00 pm, esa es la venezuela industrial la de la industrias básicas y la de la industria petrolera.
Este libro es un respiro sobre lo que es ser venezolano es un golpe contundente a las tesis marxistas del gobierno actual, es una referneica pra saber donde estan nuestos gap y que acciones se deben tomar para cerrar ls brechas, nuestos gobernantes deberian leerlos y todo aquel que desee hacer negocios en mi país debe hacerlo.

you've seen the herzog movie now read the participants' own account! available at all good libraries (about the only place you'll find this book unfortunately). one of the most bizarre journeys ever undertaken during the golden age of exploitation. i get lost with words trying to describe this book. i guess you could describe it with all of the usual superlatives about 'testimony to the human spirit', 'indominable willpower of men' but this quest for god, glory and gold rapidly descends into an exploration of greed, power and survival. it's well worth reading the original text of the journey, it's endlessly fascinating as the journey moves through the andes with hope and then down the amazon with horror. march on.

We tend to believe that WW I was an European subject with an European scope. And WW II was an European subject with worlwide scope. But the idea of the German Empire was not buried in the middle ages. Germans made blockades on american ports as late as early this century, and were willing to obtain a base in the caribbean (Isla de Margarita). The term Weltpolitik is not new to germans. This book makes us think on the thin layers of imperialistic thought that led to the Nazi nightmare.

An astonishingly beautiful and expensively- produced book detailing the geography and life of the Caribbean Islands off the coast of Venezuela. There must be 250+ photographs, reproduced in the best possible color, probably half of them aerial.
The book shows life in the fishing villages, in the jungle, along the coast. An exhaustive survey of this little known area. It's a benchmark book of its type. Read this and you'll more about the area than anyone who lives there.

This is absolutely the best book of Jaguar information for a person who wants up-to-date,no-nonsense, serious information on the Jaguar. The data collected by the authors is simply 'mind-boggling' ! Of all the books I have read on Jaguars this book is by far the most detailed and authentic. The book is an in-depth study of Jaguars of the Llanos, Venezuela. This subspecies, along with the subspecies from the Mato Grosso in Brazil, are the largest and most massive Jaguars in the world. My hat goes off to the authors and I would like to tell them personally...THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!
