          4 out of 5 stars Clear directions, interesting facts........1998-05-09

          I purchased this book with the intent to complete one or more of the recommended walking tours on my most recent trip to DC. However, I found that it made an excellent read for my flight and that the places, people, and events it describes served generally to whet my appetite for actually experiencing the adventures.

          During my trip, I happened to complete parts of a couple of the walking tours, but I didn't set out to follow any of them step-for-step. (With so much to see and do in DC, I like to wander from sight to sight.) Because I had read most of the book before I was there, I was able to quickly refer to the page describing the building I was in front of at the time. For me, this was a near-perfect way to enrich my tourism experience.

          I heartily recommend this book. You will find its clear directions and concise descriptions handy to have as you tour our nation's capital (and Capitol).

            Product Description

            CCH's Federal Estate & Gift Taxes: Code and Regulations is an indispensable single-source compilation of the estate and gift tax law. It provides the following: - Full official text of the estate, gift, and generation-skipping transfer tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and the corresponding Final, Temporary, and Proposed Regulations. Also included are selected income tax Code sections and Regulations that closely relate to estate and gift taxes, as well as selected procedural Code sections and corresponding Regulations. - Unified transfer tax rates and the income tax rates applicable to estates and trusts, presented in tabular form for quick reference. This helpful reference features a reader-friendly format, with an expanded 7-1/2" x 10" oversized page and larger type fonts for enhanced readability. To help facilitate users' research: - All Final, Temporary and Proposed Regulations are presented in Code section order rather than categorized by type (estate, gift, etc.). - The Code, Regulations, and Index sections are identified by special bleeder cuts so that users can quickly and easily identify these sections. Parallel arrangement by Code section ensures efficient research and a Table of Contents provides easy location of the contents by subject. This reference's portable one-volume presentation with expanded page size and larger type fonts for enhanced readability makes it a handy alternative to the unabridged multi-volume IRC and Regs. Reflects statutory and regulatory developments through March 2007.

                    Book Description

                    The focus of the book is on chapters 11, 12, and 13 of the Internal Revenue Code. Discusses selected income tax issues, but only in contrast with, or as an adjunct to, a discussion of the estate and gift tax treatment of those issues. This book is not an estate planning book or a comprehensive guide to the federal tax implications of all gratuitous transfers. Contains sections on deductions and credits and on the generation skipping transfer.

                                    A great read for devotees of This Old House, this book chronicles the story of their very first project. Old pics of Norm are especially fun.

                                    This book is filler material, you could find all this info online or in Lowe's or Home Depot. If you have any clue on what you are doing beyond a starter DIY save your money.

                                    5 out of 5 stars Excellent for historic home owners.......2003-08-12

                                    Finally a concise, easy to read text that any historical home owner should own and read. It is the bible of historical building maintenance! This text should be used by every historical society and historic preservation commission as a guide for recommending proper ways to treat and maintain historic building materials. It would be a wonderful text to suggest to an interested student, as well. Thanks Judith for putting something together that is so user-friendly!

                                    4 out of 5 stars Fascinating Information for lovers of old homes.......2001-11-27

                                    I bought this as a gift for a friend. He shared it with me after reading it cover-to-cover. Great info for anyone concerned with historic preservation. Not quite the "handyman" book I had expected but nonetheless it proved to be some worthwhile reading.

                                    5 out of 5 stars A complete guide for Mantaining an older building.......2001-01-23

                                    This book was required for an architectural conservation class which I am currently enrolled in. I have found it extremelly helpfull. Unfortunantly I bought this book at the bookstore for a lot more money. The author gets quite technical at times, however they give you quick insights that are at once complete and easy to read. This is definantly a very affordable guide for home owners, designers, and preservationists of all sorts.

                                    I bought this book for myself when I owned a house that was built in 1930. I have since sold the house but the book was so helpful I now plan to give it as a gift.

                                        The Light Crust Doughboys are one of the most long-lived and musically versatile bands in America. Formed in the early 1930s under the sponsorship of Burrus Mill and Elevator Company of Fort Worth, Texas, with Bob Wills and Milton Brown (the originator of western swing) at the musical helm and future Texas governor W. Lee "Pappy" O'Daniel as band manager and emcee, the Doughboys are still going strong in the twenty-first century. Arguably the quintessential Texas band, the Doughboys have performed all the varieties of music that Texans love, including folk and fiddle tunes, cowboy songs, gospel and hymns, commercial country songs and popular ballads, honky-tonk, ragtime and blues, western swing and jazz, minstrel songs, movie hits, and rock 'n' roll.

                                        In this book, Jean Boyd draws on the memories of Marvin "Smokey" Montgomery and other longtime band members and supporters to tell the Light Crust Doughboys story from the band's founding in 1931 through the year 2000. She follows the band's musical evolution and personnel over seven decades, showing how band members and sponsors responded to changes in Texas culture and musical tastes during the Great Depression, World War II, and the postwar years. Boyd concludes that the Doughboys' willingness to change with changing times and to try new sounds and fresh musical approaches is the source of their enduring vitality. Historical photographs of the band, an annotated discography of their pre-World War II work, and histories of some of the band's songs round out the volume.
