A must have book by a quality writer.......2007-10-02
My husband enjoy going on camping adventures, and we use all of Tom Stienstra's camping books like bibles. I have noted only one mistake on his California book, but on the whole they are useful and informative.
We plan a trip up the California coast to Oregon, then to Washington.
We plan to tent camp all the way using his books. We did it before a few years ago and it worked out great. I strongly recommend this book or any of his books to anyone who wants to have fun, cheap, exciting adventures camping!
Pacific Northwest Camping guide review.......2007-09-27
This book arrived in A-1 condition, and in a timely manner. I recommend this seller.
the book to have.......2007-06-12
If you camp this is the book to have, espcially if you tent camp and want to find all the small campgrounds. I love finding all the tent campgrounds, this is the definite book for the NW.
five stars is not enough for the work that went into thsi book.
Our Favorite Campground Guide to the Pacific Northwest!.......2006-11-02
As indicated by reviewers of earlier editions, the Moon Outdoors (previously Foghorn Outdoors) series of campground guides is not without flaws. Even so, we know of no directories which do a better job of addressing campground aesthetics than these wonderful guides. In our experience, the look and feel of a campground is often the single greatest factor influencing the quality of a camping experience . . . and the factor totally ignored by nearly all other campground guides.
There are a number of directories which rate facilities, provide directions, tell you how to make reservations and give you an idea of the cost for a night's stay in a specific campground. This series gives similar basic information and then goes beyond that. This guides from Moon Outdoors actually gives you a feel of what it is like to stay in a specific campground - a bit of a narrative description and a "scenic beauty rating" for each campground plus information about nearby recreation opportunities. We like that a lot.
Have we found instances where we liked a campground more or less than the book's author? Of course. Tastes differ and things change over time. Even so, we would rather have an admittedly subjective rating of a campground's intangibles than to have nothing to go on but a recitation of facts and figures.
Are the Moon Outdoors Guides the only ones we use? No. But they are ALWAYS the first place we turn when selecting a destination campground.

An excellent camping guide.......2007-04-16
This is a wonderful, easy to use book. It is divided into regions, with guide maps within each region. All sorts of camping sites are listed, from freeway accessible RV parks, to primative National Park facilities. Scenery ratings are given for each, along with available services and driving directions.
I've used AAA camping guide books for years, but found this more thorough and easier to use. I am ordering the Washington equivalent. Sadly, none of the other Western States are covered yet. Hopefully that will change soon.

Book Description
Described by the Chicago Tribune as a "latter-day version of Dickens' Bleak House," Bankruptcy: A Feast for Lawyers is a shattering indictment of bankruptcy law by a CEO who lived through the experience of Chapter 11. Author Sol Stein exposes a system that is supposed to provide an opportunity for troubled companies to reorganize, but kills more than 70% of the businesses that take refuge in it while enriching legions of lawyers. In the nightmare world of Chapter 11, the gainers are seldom the creditors or the debtor company, but rather the bankruptcy bar, impeached in this book by their own conduct and the condemnation of their ethical brethren. Besides his own experience, the author draws examples from diverse industries -- trucking, food, real estate, oil, and publishing.

Book Description
This book is a history of the 2nd New Jersey Cavalry during two years of the Civil War, 1863-65. It is a story told from the point of view of one enlisted man in this regiment, the author's grandfather, Corporal S. Townsend Walmsley. All the cavalry characters are true, documented factually as a result of the author's own research into original documents, as well as narratives told to him by other family members. It is a story of human sacrifice for country and ideals and the maturation of young men who eagerly went to war as invincible warriors, only to find that value for life, like ideals, was also precious. The details of everyday living and the research of their training, as in horsemanship, personalize the accounts and give the reader a sense of participation in this important history. The author's access to primary sources, such as his grandfather's journal and letters sent home during the war, lend the book its vitality and humanity.

Civil War Horse-soldier.......2007-05-29
I see this as a great young adult novel with real history through-out! In an age when war tends to be glorified, this book demonstrates the opposite. I knew the author and he was an expert on the Civil War. The fact that his grandfather served and his experiences are the basis of the story as seen through Townsend's eyes adds real drama to the book. I understand the author has a website: [...]

BE CAREFUL WHEN ORDERING THIS BOOK.......2004-08-26
There are various editions of this book being listed under the same ISBN. Make sure to contact the seller of the book if you buy it used to make sure the ISBN of their copy is the same as the one you are looking for! I had to order this book 2 times to get the right book! Sellers should list the ISBN of the BOOK (not the CD or whatever is included) so that buyers of this text know which one they are getting!
Good marketing book.......2003-09-29
This book was very easy to follow.
Horrible to read.......2003-01-24
This book is horrid to read, the chapters drag on and there simply too much information crammed into one chapter. Its hard to differentiate the points in the chapters, and many of the important points are not emphasized.
well duh.......2002-04-20
You know this book could have been nothing more than a glossary of definitions, a few summarys and outlines of the 4 this or 8 thats and it would have been much more interesting. The material in here is so basic and simple that I do the reading and don't feel that I have actually learned anything that wasn't fairly obvious to begin with. The examples are relevent if you happen to be a really slow learner and need 3 page explainations of 2 sentence definitions.
Comprehensive Book for Principles of Marketing Course.......1999-09-08
This is a fairly comprehensive fundamentals of marketing book. It is laid out well. It begins with an elementary explanation of the marketing discipline and its relationship to society. This is followed by an explanation of the ingredients in marketing strategy planning. Following this section, the author addresses the external factors that affect marketing decisions. This is followed by a discussion of demographic and behavioral deminisons of the customer. Then, the author catergories different type of customers. The next chapter presents an elementary review of marketing research. The most of the remainder of the text focuses on the 4 Ps--Product, Place, Promotion, and Price. This is probably the strongest part of the text. Throughout the text the author incorporates global and ethical issues that relate to the subject matter of each chapter. This is an excellent text for a principles or fundamentals of marketing course.

Robbo the Roadie.......2006-05-11
I was very disappointed with this book. I was hoping for an all access pass to the happenings of the band with some insights on the bands dynamics. Unfortunately, that was summed up in about 10 pages. If you already know that they fired their drummer, that they drank uncontrollably, Noel is Oasis, and Liam is an eccentric rock star there's no need to buy this book.
Robbo is no doubt a talented writer who uses flowery language and abstract excerpts and could surely write circles around other authors but he forgets what his book is about. I don't care that he was in the millitary or how hard it was to be a babysitter to Oasis. Tell me more about the band. If you want to know more about Oasis watch the Definitely Maybe DVD interviews or at worst the Live Forever DVD. You'll learn alot more about the inner workings of the band told by the band instead of by a disgruntled ex roadie.
Robbo delivers with first-hand account of life with Oasis........1999-06-03
Ian Robertson's "What's the Story?" is a fascinating account of life with Oasis. Robertson focuses on his personal dealings with Oasis, instead of relying on the typical assumptions made about Oasis like most who have written about Oasis. Robertson, their former tour manager, delivers his story with a simple, honest, style that keeps you riveted as you see the Gallagher brothers swallowed by fame. Instead of slamming the band that eventually let him go, Robertson focuses on the respect he had for the talented and loyal Noel Gallagher, while allowing the reader insight into the bizzare emotional behavior of Liam. Robbo never directly attacks the younger Gallagher, he even notes that Liam has a caring side to him that is usually not present in most rock stars. However, Robbo still relives accounts of times that Liam's behavior drove Oasis to the edge. An excellent book, Robertson puts his heart and soul into telling the reader what life with Oasis was like for him without becoming overemotional and writing a biased, selfish book. (Which is what many in his position would have done.) Definitely five stars.
Creatively written by Robertson as it really happened........1998-11-14
Robertson gave this book to people as he saw the scenes of Oasis. With his candid first hand experiece of dealing with the Gallahgers, Robbo wrote about the highs and lows of the life he lived. He made us realize that fame might not be what most people think about it.
Totally Top for the manchester boys!.......1998-07-01
A great book no matter if your a huge fan that thinks you know EVERYTHING about the band or a newbie, its not a big info book its more a "this is what happened in this number of days" kinda book.
Top!.......1997-10-13
This book is very exciting...it is different than any other one I've read on Oasis. Told from the view point of Robbo, who was on tour with them, it has tons of back stage stories that you'll never find anywhere else. From Liam and Bonehead's talk about baths, to Robbo's endless fights with Liam....it's top all the way!

Warning - If you are looking for piano music do not order this. When I ordered this item I wanted piano music since that is my instrument of choice. The website did not specify what instrument the music was for - I returned it. If you are looking for guitar music then you've got the right item.

An excellent personal account of Holocaust experiences........1999-02-13
Dr. Weinberg, for many years a professor of Hebrew and Semitic languages at Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in Cincinnati, was imprisoned in Bergen-Belsen during WW2. He and his wife survived the horror of the Holocaust and rebuilt their lives in America after the war.
His book is a thoughtful, reflective, and touching memoir of his experiences during those awful years. He feels the obligation to share his experiences with others, because survivors of the Holocaust are gradually passing away, and someone must tell the world what it was like, so hopefully it will never happen again.
Weinberg's book is exceptionally well written and readable, and it has pictures and other illustrations which enhance its appeal. Anyone interested in learning more about what it was like to experience the Holocaust will enjoy this book immensely.
