The Complete Making of Indiana Jones: The Definitive Story Behind All Four Films17 reviews
J.W. Rinzler, Laurent Bouzereau

Del Rey, 2008

The Making of My Favorite Film
I can honestly say that Raiders of the Lost Ark is my favorite film of all-time. I cannot count how many times I went to the theater back in the summer of 1981 as a wide-eyed 14 year old kid and took this amazing trip alongside Indy, Sallah, and Marion. That being said, this is a review of the book and not the film. The book was a wonderful read. I was happy to see the most space set aside for ... 		  
  







  
  
From Vines to Wines: The Complete Guide to Growing Grapes and Making Your Own Wine30 reviews
Jeff Cox

Storey Publishing, LLC, 1999

Almost perfect
This book tells you everything about growing grapes and producing fine wine. It even deals with the choice of grape-varieties suited for your climate. It is almost perfect. I think many Europeans will read this book, and it would have been perfect if it included the Meditteranean countries in the tables of climate-zones and selection of suitable varieties. It is very difficult to find this ...

Kevin Zraly

Sterling, 2007

Wonderfully informative Beginning Level book, well written and entertaining.
I received this book as a gift from my best friend (who's husband is a rep for Chateau Ste Michelle). Although I rarely drink, and do not know a great deal about wine, I do seem to have a sharp palette, especially for French Burgandy (I reached this conclusion thanks to my dear, knowledgable and generous friends) ... which is really quite fortunate since my family currently lives a stone's ... 		  
  







  
  
Come Into My Trading Room: A Complete Guide to Trading101 reviews
Alexander Elder

Wiley, 2002

Review from a professional Forex trader
Simply the finest book on trading I have read to date. I credit this book with being a large part of why I went from consistently losing on trades, to consistently making profits. I think that traders in any market would benefit from this book, and if you don't learn valuable lessons from this book you simply aren't trying. The sections on triple screen trading are worth the price of admission ... 		  
  







  
  
The Complete Illustrated Guide to Furniture and Cabinet Construction44 reviews
Andy Rae

Taunton, 2001

Great as reference or tutorial
I don't buy many woodworking books because most, especially the ones sold by home centers, aren't very good. They lack detail, they're incomplete, and I often get the feeling that they're just cranked out without much thought. But this one caught my eye in a local bookstore and I'm glad I bought it. First of all, the book can be used either as a reference or as a complete primer on ...

Viki Lareau

Interweave Press, 2006

Worth not only the money, but the time
I have purchased other similar books in the past that I skim, but never really take time to read. This book was not only worth the money, it was worth the time. Concisely written, clearly categorized, useful information. I only wish I had read it seven years ago when I first started selling my jewelry, as some of the lessons I have learned a much harder way! My little company is currently ...

Guitarmaking: Tradition and Technology: A Complete Reference for the Design & Construction of the ...39 reviews
Jonathan Natelson, William Cumpiano

Chronicle Books, 1994

Great for first time luthiers
I bought this book because I wanted to build my own Flamenco guitar from one of the many preformed and precut kits out on the market. But after reading it I decided not to go for a preformed kit and build it from a basic kit where I do all the work, that is how much information is in this book. Now don't get me wrong this book won't make you a professional luthier overnight, but it will give you ...

J Marsha Michler

Krause Publications, 2008

Crazy Quilting - FANTASTIC!
This book is the BEST that I have found on crazy quilting! I have quite a collection of books on this subject and if I could keep only one, this would be it! Beautiful, well illustrated, great explanations. It has all the answers. And to make it even better, it is ring-bound so that it lies flat which makes it so easy to use. This book gets an A+ (from a strict grader)!

Great Book
Absolutely Great! This is the best book I've read on fusing too date and I read alot. Instead of just "what to do", it explains why you are doing it. It has a wonderful history of glass and an excellent explanation on the nature of glass. It covers the full range of information for working with warm glass, from straight fusing to making your own molds for casting.
