Negotiation Boot Camp: How to Resolve Conflict, Satisfy Customers, and Make Better Deals 12 reviews
Doubleday Business, 2006
Ethical and well written
I liked this book a lot. Most negotiating books are either so complicated that you'd have to be an ambassador to understand them or so aggressive in their tactics that you wouldn't want to use them. This book is a perfect balance of ethical methods that will make you a winner. Ed Brodow is a competitor of mine on the negotiating lecture circuit and he has done an excellent job of distilling his ...

Do Princesses Wear Hiking Boots?23 reviews
Carmela LaVigna Coyle, Mike Gordon, ...
Rising Moon, 2003
Great for more than the 4-8 set it says!
My 2 year old loves this book! And it's so wonderful to see a book that says, yeah, be a princess, but that doesn't mean you can be fun and make messes too! You can still be a real person. This book is fantastic!

Cowboy Boots18 reviews
Jennifer June
Universe, 2007
These boots belong on the coffee table
Though they may have had a utilitarian start, cowboy boots have almost always been a canvas on which to display the skill of the bootmaker and the personality of the owner. "Cowboy Boots: The Art & Sole" by Jennifer June captures this spirit wonderfully, with rich photos and knowledgeable writing. Like many of the bootmakers and boot-wearers quoted in her text, June is a devotee of the boot and ...

Brian Giese
BookSurge Publishing, 2006
I.T. Sales Boot Camp:
Recently I had the opportunity to interview for a sale position with a much respected software company. A few days before the interview I had just finished reading I.T. Sales Boot Camp. The concept and fundamental ideals of selling in an I.T. arena that were taught and express in the book enabled me to land the job. I believe that the knowledge that I gain from I.T.Sales Boot Camp made the ...

Roots Shoots Buckets & Boots: Gardening Together with Children29 reviews
Sharon Lovejoy
Workman Publishing, 1999
WOW!! Lets start gardening!!!
I bought both books. Roots,Shoots,Buckets & Boots, and Sunflower Houses. They are not the same! There are a couple of similar items, but both worth having and different. Sunflower houses shows how to make leaf hats and flower crowns, screechers, boats, pansy dolls, and much much more. The first book (roots, shoots,..) shows more creative gardening and hideouts and things like pizza patches ...

The Ultimate Basic Training Guidebook: Tips, Tricks, and Tactics for Surviving Boot Camp50 reviews
Michael Volkin
Savas Beatie, 2005
Incredible
This book has helped me in so many ways. I knew nothing about the military before I left for boot camp. Now, I feel I am completely ready. The book has an easy to understand fitness routine and told me what to expect mentally from a drill sergeant, even the other recruits. This book even contains a packing list so I know exactly what to pack for boot camp.
Before I was scared to leave for ...

Anyone interested in wearing, knowing about or just looking at boots will ...

A Fistful of Thorns8 reviews
Michael A. Crane
Boot Hill Press, 2003
Adding a Personal Dimension to a Western Legend
I am a fan of the 19th century American West but usually prefer histories and personal accounts to fiction. But this book is a pleasant exception. As Doc Holiday is a figure somewhat overshadowed by the Earp saga in most historical sources (and we western culture fans know of the broad range of treatment that legend receives in so called historical text) it was exciting to get some insight into ...

Gordon Korman
Scholastic Paperbacks, 1991
My favourite Gordon Korman book!
There is no one in the world who does not love Gordon Korman's novels. Even my dad, who is almost 50 years old, laughs hysterically when he reads them. I don't just laugh while I'm reading them, I laugh whenever I even THINK about them! This is my very favourite book by Gordon Korman. I loved the whole Bruno and Boots series, but I thought this one was the best. Gordon Korman has this ...

Letters From Boot Camp: A Memoir of Navy Basic Training8 reviews
Donna Beckley Galanti
iUniverse, Inc., 2007
Beckley goes full "cycle"
As informational as it is emotional. Beckley seemlessly weaves the details of how boot camp works with the fears, courage, shock, and joy of her accomplishment. From the agony of being continuously "cycled" (exercised intensely) to the subtlety of finding pride in independence, Beckley gives us an incredible real-life journey. And, it is possibly as fast-paced as basic training! When, I got to ...
