This is a great book for those of you who enjoy golfing in out-of-the-way courses. We used this book for a recent vacation and had a wonderful time. The book had accurate descriptions of courses. Enjoy!!

Jim Cox is the dean of American radio historians, and this is one of his strongest books. It provides a wealth of information, in a highly readable style, about classic radio comedies such as "Our Miss Brooks," "Ozzie and Harriet," "Blondie," and many more. Included are some quasi-sitcoms like "The Jack Benny Program" as well. Whether you're looking for a trip down memory lane, or an opportunity to learn more about some of the most popular shows of their era, Cox's book comes highly recommended.

This book is a great resource if you find yourself traveling thru Wisconsin. It lists taverns by city that are worth stopping at.

This is a great set of maps (Map Book) of Las Vegas and the surrounding areas, its easy to use and very up to date, it has all the new communities and is great for looking for new homes as well as any location.

I am so relieved to have found this book. My son is almost five and I didn't even know where to begin to get him enrolled, much less how to find the best school for him. The school profiles have much better information than I've found anywhere else, and the articles about the school system answered a lot of my questions.

Filled with great facts and info... a must for an environmental science major or someone who wants to learn about the environment...

Helps the collector learn everything about buying lionel from 1970 to 1991

If you are looking for environmentally preferable, or "green" building products and materials, then check the book out. Published by the folks who put out "Environmental Building News," it contains helpful listings for hundreds and hundreds of products.

I really like that they don't accept any advertising or fees from the product manufacturers... makes me feel like I can trust what they have to say.

The information is well organized and presented. The listings are organized by "CSI masterspec" which is a system used by Architects, so it takes some getting used to if you're not an Architect... for example, insulation is under "thermal protection." There is a handy cross-reference index by more common category names of products.

There's also some "specification" language... another aspect that is more useful for architects than the general public. But it gives some good tips on how and why to use these green materials. I have heard that the publisher, BuildingGreen, is coming out with a "homeowner" version soon.

This book is the bible of California planning. I have worked in the field of urban planning for several years. The complexity of coastal California development is such that even the majority of people practicing in the field can't explain the whole process. This book is the only reference that I have seen that tells you what the heck is going on, in fact college classes are taught using this book...

I just purchased 2000 Guide to Literary Agents, and it was worth every penny. The book is the best one out there for seeking an agent. It has everything I need to research and find the right agent for me. The next question is, will that agent know a great story when they see one? We'll find out.
