After reading each chapter of this book, I wanted to visit every place the author described. Kohn is obviously a New Englander and is intimately knowledgeable about places to visit in New England and things to do. For someone who is not familiar with the area that Kohn writes about, the book offers an insiders look at unique B&B's, great restaurants and their specialties, parks to visit and a myraid of other fun things to do while visiting the area. This book is much more than a guide for pilots. Anyone traveling to this area of the United States should read Favorite New England Airports: A Guide to Aviation Activities and Entertainment. It offers one the chance to greatly enhance their vacation to New England!

James Kohns' book appeals to me because the author--rather than trying to write a guide that covers every airport, restaurant, and hotel and quickly becomes obsolete--focuses his comments on several activities and places he has personally enjoyed and thinks others will also like.

Kohn loves taking flight to enjoy New England's great outdoors, sports, the arts, culinary adventures, and lovely inns. His enthusiasm is infectious. He covers many places and topics, among them whitewater rafting, outlet shopping, and climbing Mount Katahdin in Maine; skiing, golfing, and boating in Vermont; exploring Nautucket and Martha's Vineyard and historic Lexington and Concord in Massachusetts. He notes museums, offers advice on places to eat and stay, and provides the all-important basics of how to get around once you touch down at the airport.

In short, pilots who want to explore more of New England will appreciate the book for its practical advice on flight aspects. Pilots and non-pilots alike will enjoy the unique vantage point this book offers on activities. This is a delightful and practical guide to a varied and interesting part of the world.

Not only paradors and pousadas but also alternatives. I like the ink drawings showing the paradors. Very detailed section maps.

This September will mark my 6th visit to the Iberian Peninsula. You can easily outline a wonderful car trip using this book alone. It is very straightforward and very honest and the only guidebook that you will need to purchase. You can write to the Spanish Tourist Office for a wonderful map which will have the location of all the paradores and pousadas clearly indicated. Book and map in hand, and you are halfway there. The Spanish and Portugese people have to be among the most gracious people in the world. Use this book wisely, and seek out the less well known regions of Spain. You won't be disapointed. Viva la Espana!

They've done the research and list many scholorships in an uncluttered format. Scholarships are listed by the geographical location in which the scholarship is to be used. The contact information tends to be out of date, but it is possible to find the current information, albeit with a little work.

Financial Resources for International Study is a must have for anyone wishing to attend school outside of the U.S. Every scholarship and financial aid option imaginable is listed within the book, which if you recieve one of those, could pay for the book itself easily! I would highly recommend this book to anyone who, like me, has to get out and see the world through education but cannot always pay for all of it.

This book (as well as the author) are lifesavers.

The author guides the new parent through the mysterious and often turbulent waters of the nanny world.

STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!

This book is a simple straightforward guide to all those who find themselves in the midst of a search for a nanny and ponder as to how to go about this extremely important task. After all, it is our precious children we are talking about here. Ms. Desrosier's no nonsense approach and easy to read, logical style and book construction, make for a very smooth and easy reading. While the title may lead one to believe that the books relevancy is limited to a certain geographic area, 90% of the contents have universal value to parents all over the United states as it deals with issues related to making generic choices as to the style of parenting one wishes to persue, establishing the guidelines to the future caregiver and dealing with legal and safety issues. I would urge the author and the publisher to try and expand the scope of this excellent book beyond the San Francisco Bay area, as it could be very meaningful to couples all over the nation

Like the gentleman from Hawaii, I thought I was ordering a two volume set, as advertised on the site. In my line of work I need both volumes, but I only received Volume 1. Perhaps he and I should get together and swap volumes back and forth.

UL now publishes the Directory in two volumes. If you are looking for the sections dealing with the fire resistant ratings of beam, floor-ceiling, roof-ceiling, column, and wall and partition assemblies, then do not buy this book. The description of the book does not mention that the book being sold is Volume 2, which contains the rated joint systems and through-penetration firestop systems. Volume 1 contains the information that I was actually looking for, but I am unable to find anyone who carries it.

Just got this book. All I can say is that it's great. Gave me lots of ideas for places to take a fishing vacation that I hadn't really considered before. And when they say for ALL budgets they mean it! There are some real bargains in the book as well as some super nice places. They've even listed places you can only hike to or ride a boat to or take a plane.... Highly recommended!

My wife bought my son and I copies for Christmas. It's been an indespenable help! It's easy to locate a place that meets the requirements of those traveling in your party. I've never thought enough of a book to take the time to write a review, but Simpson did his homework so you don't have to. The descriptions listed contained all the info I needed, plus some. I've already made reservations for my spring trip! It's a bed and breakfast so my wife is even looking forward to this trip. TRAVELING FISHERMEN NEED TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS BOOK BEFORE THEIR NEXT TRIP....

Newly revised and updated in a 2001 edition, The Foundation Center's Guide To Grantseeking On The Web is a massive, authoritative, all-encompassing reference, sporting 700+ pages densely packed with valuable information. Half of the volume is dedicated to teaching readers about how to take advantage of corporate giving information on the Web, and the second half lists countless foundations and charities on the Web that accept applications for grants and donations. Black-and-white illustrations of web sites and the like round out this unique and exceptional reference, which is a "must" for any grant-seeker in today's modern, technology-driven world.

Compiled and edited by Kief Schladweiler, The Foundation Center's Guide To Grantseeking On The Web 2003 Edition is a massively extensive, 852-page resource of 3,00 grantmaker websites, and offers up a wealth of information concerning corporate grantmaking, searchable databases, government funding sources, online journals and newsletters, guidance for seeking individual donors online, and so much more. A thoroughly accessible guidebook enhanced with screenshots, illustrations, and explicit instructions, The Foundation Center's Guide To Grantseeking On The Web 2003 Edition is justifiably a very highly recommended reference for both amateur and professional grant-seekers.

An absolutely wonderful and useful guide. Would highly recommend to anyone looking into philanthropy. How anyone can not have this is beyond me.

This is an invaluable reference work for anyone looking for information on the philanthropic world. However, there is 1 glaring omission: My brother, David G. Jacobs, is the Editor of this book, and is credited as such on the inside front cover. I don't know who this Jeffrey Falkenstein is, or why he is listed as "compiler". I felt I had to set the record straight on this item.
