Purchasing Books

My husband and I have found this to be a most informative book on the subject of the Ford Model T. We were amazed at the wealth of information and the vast amount of pictures showing virtually every aspect of the Model T Ford.
We learned a lot of tid bits from this book like where our 1926 pickup's gas tank would have been placed originally and things about after market parts etc. that we were not aware of. All in all we found it extremely informative and the pictures were most enjoyable.

This book by Peter Sessler was very well writen. It has enough information to make anyone a respected mustang informant. This was my first mustang book and I still go back to it for information from time to time. I bought the book when I was 15, and now I own a 94 GT convertable. That is how big of an impact this book can have. People always wonder how I know so much about mustangs and now I must admitt, it is because of this book. The main thing that I didn't like about the book was the way it went into detail at times and later seemed to skim over some cars.

As a seasoned professional in the export/import business, I like this book for its breadth of substance. This could also be an interesting college or graduate school textbook for those pursuing a career in the field.

In their opening words in Chapter 1, the authors state.... "the purpose of due diligence is to develop information that allows one to make a reasonable estimate of the viability and future profitability of a business being considered for acquisition." I belive that the authors' step-by-step approach and easy to follow guide have most effectively enabled the reader to make just such a determination. The checklists and critical questions that are provided in this text are well worth the cover price, in and of themselves. I believe that this book is an excellent companion to Joseph Krallinger's text, "Mergers & Acquisition: Managing The Transaction." The authors' hands-on business experience, as well as their academic abilities are clearly in evidence in their work. The chapters related to the valuation of the various forms of assets and liabilites (including the potential legal consequences) are especially valuable to the reader. As a leadership coach to CEO Entrepreneurs and as an academcian who teaches courses in entrepreneurial leadership and decision making, I find this book to be a valuable resource. All in all I'd strongly recommend this book to any entrepreneur or would be entrepreneur who is considering the acquisition of an existing business.

The general approach of this book is to present the full text of a very simplified aircraft entity operating agreement and to explain the various provisions and why they are there. In the course of doing this, the author shares a number of war stories regarding what can go wrong, and in some cases, practical solutions/approaches to solve/avoid the problems. The author's comments will certainly save the newcomer a number of headaches, and point out important things to consider before becoming "wedded" to a group of co-owners. I would reccomend the book for those not really interested in the legal details but who need a place to start thinking about getting into aircraft co-ownership without stubbing their toe.

The mantra of this book is "see your lawyer and accountant for details". This is of course good advice given the varying impact of state law and individual tax considerations, but not very satisfying for those looking for something to sink their teeth into. The book lacks detail or legal citations for much of what is here, and so is of limited usefulness to lawyers and accountants etc. looking for a professional reference work. For example, there is basically no meaningful discussion of such important matters as choice of entity (LLC vs. Corp vs. Partnership vs. Limited Partnership).

If Amazon does not show copies of this book available for order, you should be able to obtain it from Experimental Aicraft Association. It is my understanding that the author of the book is/was a longtime EAA member.

If you're looking for something more legal technical, I would instead reccomend "Aircraft Ownership : A Legal and Tax Guide" by Raymond C Speciale.

It is a used copy from a community college library. I hope it is not a stolen copy but a resale by the college library. The condition is good. I am satsified with the product.

A good review with lessons learned about how to keep the customer happy. A must read for any retail distrbutor or manager.

Book came in great shape. I am on chapter 8 and am having a very dificult time with problem 3. It's hard for me to follow even with the direction in the book.

An introduction to menswear by the famed mens clothing designer. While it is obvious Mr. Flusser has a preference for the English Saile Row ideal, the sartorial knowledge dispensed from the book can be applied universally. Please bear in mind the book is about good taste & classical style, as oppose to fashion victimship.

I've been riding since High School, back in the 60's. Layed two bikes down, one my fault, one a little ole ladies fault. I read about Buz and the 3 advisors and laughed. This book had to have been written by a Safety Instructor. Along with the laughs, along with the bad advise, there were plenty of great tips for new riders and riders that have been on the road for quite a while. It was a great review, it was a great story, and I'd love to say more, but, it has gotten me in the mood to ride. See ya on the open road Buz! Just remember to give a wave as you go by.
