Summary: All About What Really Matters- Animal Rescue
Comment: While this book might not contain as many fuzzy, feel-good, heartstring-tuggers as Crisp's earlier book, Out of Harm's Way, I think her second effort measures up just as well to her first. This book features stories from disasters that didn't generate as much press and also focuses on the nitty gritty of animal rescue work- she describes some of the dangers, the politics, the risks, and the disappointments. The book isn't intended to be a bunny-hugging Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul- it serves as an eye-opening introduction to the difficult but ultimately satisfying world of animal rescue, written by a true trailblazer in the field. Recommended (and inspiring) reading for anyone considering volunteering for EARS.

Summary: Great Book Brings It all Home
Comment: What great reading for the animal lover! This book gave me a feel for what it's like to work in a real disaster and what goes on behind the scenes. It made me realize what hard work animal rescue can be and made me appreciate the people that devote their lives in this way. There were times I laughed out loud and times that I wish someone had warned me to get a Kleenex! I thought this book was a great follow-up to Crisp's other book, "Out of Harm's Way" because it shows disasters that were not necessarily as "media-worthy" but still just as important to the lives saved and impacted. It shows that not only is Terri a true asset to animals, but also to the people that care for and love them. I highly recommend both books and anxiously await a third from Terri Crisp!

Summary: Disappointing after "Out of Harm's Way"
Comment: To all my fellow readers who were disappointed in this poorly written book after enjoying "Out of Harm's Way" so much, I believe I have solved the mystery of Terri's disappearing writing skills. Look closely at the cover of "Out of Harm's Way" and you will see "by Terri Crisp (large letters) and Samantha Glen (small letters)." I have just finished reading Samantha Glen's delightful new book "Best Friends", and I now know who wrote the warm and wonderful "Out of Harm's Way".
