Directories Books

This publication was very helpful in planning our family vacation, and saved us a lot of hassle and money. I highly recommend it to anyone traveling with their pets!

This book CHANGED MY LIFE! I read it to my kids and taught them all about the makings of MKE breads and pastries. This book is written in a style that is sure to invoke a new renaissance in homespun books full of that sweet carb content that we all love. Buy this book immediately, then spread some butter on it - because it is DONE JUST RIGHT.

As a memeber of the Guild, I get this every year without cost. So the first thing to know is: if you are trying to be a playwright, you should join the Dramatists Guild (the dues are $95 per year for an Associate Membership). At any rate, you need this book---Theaters, Agents, Directors, Contests, etc.---it's all here every year and you must have this information to even begin to successfully market your play.

Drama, by definition, is a public act. Writing a playscript and sitting on it not only won't do anyone else any good, it will make you quite upset. At the very least, you will want someone to read your script in a workshop. But come on, what we all really want is to sell for production.

This book doesn't have as many entries as the Writer's Market, since it aims primarily at not-for-profit and educational theatre. Art for art's sake. However, its entries are much more thorough and help you target your submissions for where they're needed and wanted. There are also entries for contests, agencies, grants and fellowships, retreats, state arts agencies, professional guilds, sources of emergency funds, and more. This is a tightly focussed guide for the professional (or would-be professional) dramatist.

As an annual edition, it will eventually be out of date and will need to be discarded in favor of a new edition. And there are a few typographical problems. So the book isn't perfect. However, it has everything you'll need in any practical way to move your scripts. Treat it with respect and it will serve you well.

Bonnie Snow's book "Drug Information" is a marvelous resource for information professionals seeking the best search tips and techniques for mining the complex world of the pharmaceutical industry, the drug pipeline, and government regulation. I can't begin to say how important this book is. Because the information world shifts rapidly, I hope she will have time to publish new editions every few years.

I review this poster daily, the detail is comprehensive, and the images bring to life the history of the earth. I bought one for a Teacher friend, who placed it in his classroom and the kids love it.

As the poster says, it is "an illustration of current theories regarding Earths history". - It helps in understanding our position along the vast time periods the earth has evolved through.

I recomend this to anyone interested in geology, science, archeology, the environment, and hey any "ology" -lol! Easiest way to understand what has happened in the last fifteen billion years!

Tourist Trains 2005 is the Empire State Railway Museum's 40th annual guide to tourist railroads and museums. Packed into this 456-page guidebook are more than five hundred railroad-related attractions accessible to the general public, along with listings for attractions that offer trains rides. Included for this rides are listings of their hours, fees, directions, and other pertinent information. Tourist Trains 2005 even offers coupons for discounts on ticket prices! Very highly recommended for the reference collections of dedicated railroading enthusiasts, Tourist Trains 2005 is also of considerable value for planning family vacations for those who want to incorporate their appreciation and enjoyment of America's railroads and railroading history into the life experiences of the children.

I have bought at least 3 consecutive editions via Amazon.

Kimberly does an excellent job as always.

It's too bad the "new" price is several hundred $$, making it mainly within the financial realm of libraries only.

Even if it is an edition or 2 behind, the data is still of value.

If you're looking for different organizations in your area, look no further than the Encyclopedia of Associations. I was on a mission to find listings of non-profits in the Chicago area and I couldn't find anyone with a comprehensive list until I found this book at Amazon.com. The book is broken down by state and then by city so it is very easy to find what you are looking for. And as an additional bonus, the local chapter of national organizations like the American Heart Assoc. and American Lung Assoc. were also listed. A definite must have!

The Encyclopedia of Gemstones and Minerals by MARTIN HOLDEN, is one of the most satisfactoring reference book that I have read. Holden professionally combined visual elements and highly detailed information in this reference book. What makes this encyclopedia special is that the readers can easily find whatever they need to find without searching the index or reading the whole table of contents! Everything is alphabetical! If You need to find anything about crystal systems, what you need to do is just to check the letter "c". What you need is always there... And one other thing: You will be fascinated when you see the beautiful detailed pictures and highly informative text.
