Handbook of United States Coins 2009: The Official Blue Book (Handbook of United States Coins (Paper)) ...

Invaluable Reference
The Bluebook is an invaluable reference when you are selling coins (along with the Redbook when buying) since it tracks what coin dealers pay for coins. You need to keep in mind that in a "hot" market prices change rapidly which can make the Bluebook "dated" fairly quickly. In any case it does provide a baseline indicating what others have received for coins in specific grades over the past ...

Must have for any one who wants to get invovled beyond "just voting"
I'm gonna go out on a line and say that this book isn't quite as journalistic as the last one, though it is very thought provoking and informative. What this book is more like is a call to action followed by some really useful information on how to take action. It's a call to get involved with your nation's politics beyond just voting, and their are sections of the book which really show ...
The Official Filthy Rich Handbook

Witty dissection of a subculture
If, like me, you find the immoderately rich kinda fascinating in their loathsomeness--think Goldie Hawn in the guilty-pleasure movie, Overboard--this book will totally feed that fascination. It's also quite impressive as a tour de force of McSweeney's-esque chartiness. It reminds me of the time I visited a college friend in Ohio and quickly realized she'd failed to warn me she was filthy rich. ...

Excellent, excellent book!
One of the most thorough books I have seen on how to do Classical Homeschool. This is such a practical book, the curriculum recommendations are great, thorough but not overwhelming. I currently teach at a Classical Homeschool Co-op program and gained some insight into my kids from this, as well as great ideas for my own, who are preschool age. Also, for those of you who are not looking to ...

In general, the Book has loads of good leads. I really like being able to sit down and relax with Writer's Market. For anyone who wants updated information, just sign up for the online Writer's Market. They list new information regularly so you never miss out. In regard to the Book, it is nice to have when you don't want to go online, but you still want to look for a place to sell your ...

This book helped me get into a top school!
I used the previous edition of the book in 2006 (green cover) and it helped me get into a top 5 business school. In fact I got into both the top 5 schools that I had applied to. My advice to applicants is to pay special attention to essays and recommendation letters. If the writers are too busy, write one up for them (call it a template) and let them edit it. That way you can get them to say ...

I will now retreat from civilization
One of my top ten books. I am an avid outdoorsman and believe in being prepared(Boy Scout Motto) to take care of one's self "off the grid". This book might as well be my bible. It does skim a little on some subjects but on the whole it gives a thorough enough explanation of all the skills one would need to scout out, build, propagate, and flourish on a frontier farm. Excellent illustrations to ...

How To Avoid The Pitfalls of The Admission Process...And There Are Many!
I bought this book with the intent of giving to my daughter, who is quickly approaching the age where college applications, essays and interviews fill the air. I decided to read it myself, as I have bought her several books about college that have turned out to be duds. I wanted to make sure she wouldn't waste valuable time reading a book that wouldn't be of any help to her. I discovered the ...

Good if you like the format
I am doing college counseling this year for the first time. I'm working with this college guide and the Princeton Review guide. The difficult thing to get used to in this guide is that it is arranged by state. That's not necessarily bad, but cumbersome if you're looking up a school and aren't sure where it is located. That one issue keeps my hand reaching for the Princeton Review guide. This ...

It lets you know what your child should be learning every year from pre school through 12th grade; giving many ideas for books, games, magazines, and web sites that you can use to teach every subject. Oh, how I wish Rebecca Rupp would do an updated version of the book with newer web ...

Classic--Perfect for the Coffee Table
This book is timeless. It was written before I was even born and much of it still holds true. Some of the references are dated, but most of the material is relevant and funny. It's a nice book to have out on your coffee table for guests to browse through for some light amusement. I actually paid a little more for "nice" copy of the book. Perhaps it will be a collector's item someday. It ...
