Book Description
A mountain range rising from the sea, Corsica holds the most arrestingly beautiful landscapes in the Mediterranean. From its cobalt blue gulfs and shell-sand beaches, hillsides of evergreen maquis give way to pristine oak, chestnut, and pine forests, awesome gorges, alpine lakes, and a spine of snow-streaked peaks and passes.
Among the many trails that penetrate its remotest corners, the GR20, following the island's watershed, has won an international reputation. But travelers can also trek at lower altitudes, along ancient mule tracks between snug stone villages where the cuisine, pace of life, and atmosphere has changed little in decades. Meticulously waymarked, Corsica's long-distance routes provide superlative trekking for all levels of fitness and proficiency.
This guide contains all the information travelers need to know for a hassle-free walking vacation in Corsica.

Customer Reviews:
Outstanding Resource!.......2007-09-23
While I was a bit skeptical about making such a purchase, thinking it was only going to be a reiteration of common sense, this book totally surprised me. It contains tips on just about anything a person considering starting their own business might wonder about and need to know from what type of name to use, to how to organize the business legally to how to best design business cards. I'm extremely impressed!
This is a great buy!
1 + 1 Can equal 5.......2007-06-29
If you are considering starting your own business, you probably already know that there is great opportunity for those who manage lay the proper ground work. Rieva has done an excellent job with this book. However, as one of my developer clients once said "Sometimes the best way to make money building a new building is to start with a great deal on an old building. Buy Rieva's Book. Do your homework. Look to see if you can reduce your start up cost with a well designed acquisition. And don't rule out getting a great deal on a business (or some of its assets) from a Chapter 11. Get a copy of Chapter 11 Business Reorganizations: For Business Leaders, Accountants And Lawyers.
It helping a novice!.......2007-06-27
Now I've taken a few business courses in college (accounting 101, Micro and Macro Economics, Statistics, etc), but I knew that starting a business would take some extra knowledge.
This book was an excellent reference for me. My particular business didn't fit the normal idea of a business, but the book still helped me explore both the direction that I wanted to go and the direction I wasn't going; just to make sure that I considered what I was doing in an objective manner.
I really appreciated this book in starting up my business, and it will surely get used as my business grows.
I liked how many different chapters there were, because it helped me to easily find answers to my questions.
Thorough, through and through........2007-05-19
This book is really thorough. I started my quest for information with the Dummies Retail Business Kit. That book was also really helpful, and a great introduction. I found Start Your Own Business to be a lot more informative and helpful than the Business Kit book, but I worry that if I had started with it, I would have been initially overwhelmed. There is a LOT of information. Unfortunately I still need more information that is specifically geared to the retail business, as this book is more broad. But VERY helpful.
Not quite ready to start a business but want to know more about business?.......2007-05-02

Book Description
Sarah, Duchess of Marlborough, was a woman with a "passion for government": a compulsion to wield power not only in her own family but in public affairs as well. The first complete scholarly biography of the Duchess, this book makes full use of recently available manuscript sources to tell
the colorful story of a woman at the center of power, whose life spanned more than eighty years from the Restoration to the fall of Walpole. Harris sets Sarah's life and personal relationships in the context of her time, drawing a vivid portrait of a woman whose character and life are as
fascinating and contentious today as they were to her contemporaries.
