This book is a must have for anyone thinking about buying a second home.

Best Book on Vegas for guys period.......2007-03-22
I just got back from my first trip to vegas and this book guided me every step of the way. From the best place to stay or eat to the top strip clubs and bars it covers it all in a very unique set up compared to all other travel guides. I wanna keep it simple so if your a guy who is going to vegas to for a "guys weekend" this book will greatly improve you trip!
Not just for men!.......2006-05-23
While this book definately isn't for families it can be applied to travelers other than just men. I just bought this book (I'm a 32 year old married woman)and found some great advice that can apply to anyone that is looking to let loose and have some fun.
I am soon traveling to Vegas with my husband and two girlfriends. The information on the bars and clubs was extremely helpful. We also plan to hit a strip club while there and this book helped us decide. While I've been to several local strip clubs, I have never been to one in a big city and it outlines some of the basics that are different than what I'm used to.
I have been to Vegas 4 other times in the past couple years, but this will be my first trip that is completely social. This will be an exceptional tool to have.
Great book, a must for Vegas.......2006-05-11
Hiram Norman and Dave DeMontmollin you wrote a great book.
This book is a must for a guy's weekend in Vegas. Plan your weekend in order that you make the most out of your stay in Vegas.
These guys tell you where to stay, where to go, how to meet & have a great time in Vegas.
Very insightful, very funny, very informative.
Interesting and Useful...But Not For Everyone.......2006-04-27
If you are a guy, and are a guy who is only in Vegas for one thing, women, you will enjoy this book. Whether you are a bachelor, a soon-to-be-married gentleman, or a "Night at the Roxbury" woman hound, you will do just fine with this, as it is just what you need. I do mean, need.
I can think of a guy I used to work with who considers himself "all that" and would go to Vegas JUST for the ladies and the clubs. I, on the other hand, enjoy ALL facets of the city.
While I love to read anything informative, this book teaches you things such as how to manage your money. Uh, watch the Travel Channel's shows on Vegas. It teaches you how to gamble. Again, refer to the TC or play in those online rooms. Those are both free. Finally, the book actually teaches someone, or tries to do this, how to eat a steak and how to enjoy a buffet. So, I guess this is a book notorious for the obvious. Or, maybe the ideal clientel has never experienced many elements of life.
I know I say this as someone who has lived just south of Vegas for a year, and I have visited both Laughlin and Vegas many times, but I am sorry. This book is worth nothing more than a read at B'n'N or Borders. And trust me, you won't need more than an hour, as a quick skim is all that is needed.
My one positive note, though, is that, even though I laughed at both the topics in this book and at those who probably think this literature really is the answer to finding a great time in this city, the information about hotels is truly useful. I was indeed happy that I read that section because I followed DeMontmollin's advice and chose a room at the Flamingo. Upon arriving at my hotel, I quickly understood his advice that this hotel was for the cultured and not for the "clubber," I was pleasantly surprised. This book offers a nice explanation of each "type" of hotel, as does it succeed in locating where you want to go with what you will need to expect to travel (walk or cab) to get there.
With a "3," I offer a mixed review. Very good at times, unforgetable at others. If you find this book for cheap on Amazon, less than three dollar, it will be worth the read. Otherwise, just use the three dollars in gas and drive to one of the main bookstores. Bring a notebook, and set aside one hour to jot down key ideas. Heck, just place what you want (phone numbers, ket notes) in your cell. Then, when you get to Vegas, you won't have to worry about looking like a tourist or an obvious dud. Yes, dud.

Little Black Book.......2006-03-22
Overall the book was ok. Honestly I was expecting a bit more from a so called "Vegas Insider". It did have a few helpful tips, and the rating systems for the hotels and Gentleman's Clubs were helpful in selecting where to stay and what to do. I would not pay more than $10 for it again, and it should be updated yearly, if for no other reason than things change so often in Vegas.

Customer Reviews:
Fantastic and unique.......2000-06-14
Having spent a lot of time looking for information on imaginative & fun (and sometimes luxury) travel with kids, I can tell you that this is a really unique book. It is comprehensive, carefully researched and well written with loads of practical tips. Some 'travel with kids' books might as well just be bland advertising copy, this one really provides good editorial content, with positive and critical comments. It is a pleasure to read and we will use it for a long time. Fodor's should publish more of these for other parts of the US/world.
An Investment for the Traveling Family!.......2000-05-31
I loved this book and would recommend it to any family wanting to travel in the northeastern United States. The writers offer tips and reviews on places of interest, resorts, and campgrounds in a wide range of prices. In fact, we have visited some of those places and found a brand new vacation prospect in Lake George which we will be trying out this summer! Definitely one of the most informative travel books on the market today -- entertaining even if you do not go to these places.
I can't tell you how long I've looked for a book like this!.......1999-05-11
I've been searching for a book like this for several years and haven't found one that fit the bill until now! I had a great time reading it - so well written - and got more useful information than I'll ever be able to use in one lifetime! Thanks so much to the writers and publishers!
Useful age-related guide for kids.......1997-12-01
Very useful book for locals and visitors. We liked the way it gave us recommended age groups and prices. We can now plan ahead places to visit within and on the way to our next holiday area. We have also used it for planning field trips from the school into San Francisco. Easy to use and enjoyable to read.

Beautiful pictures but damaged.......2007-01-09
I bought this for my father for Christmas. The pictures in the book were beautiful and the layouts were a nice added touch. However, the cover of the book was scratched and torn, like it had been mishandled. Unfortunatly, because it took so long to get to me, I didn't have time to send it back and get a new one. The book its self was beautiful however the condition was disapointing and destracted from the beauty of the book.

Release Date: 2003-04-01 |
Book Description
Cabins are simple, sometimes primitive structures, but the heart of each cabin - a treasury of feelings, sensations, and memories of family and friends - makes them special. The Cabin presents 37 inspiring examples, showing how people are building, reclaiming, transforming, or buying this basic form of American residential architecture for a chance at the good life. The book includes 248 color photos and 50 color illustrations, site plans, floor plans, and covers the four basic styles: rustic, traditional, transformed, and modern. In the process it celebrates the possibilities and pleasures of cabins as both shelter and a way of life.
Customer Reviews:
designing my cabin.......2007-06-27
I bought this book along with a bunch of others when I bought a country home. I liked this one the best-no Architectural Digest rich people cabins that none of us can afford (or even want). This book limits the size of the cabins to a modest 1200 feet or so and focuses on the creativity of the owners. Really interesting uses of space. I have given it as a gift many times and everyone has really liked it
Beautiful Book.......2007-06-03
This is a great book with many terrific photos that will fuel your imagination and inspiration for a future small home which, in my opinion is the wave of the near future. Less is more, and this book shows you how beautiful that can be. I would recommend you leave this book on the coffee table, people always pick it up and enjoy flipping through it.
food for thought.......2006-09-06
In a nutshell, a beautiful book with gorgeous photos and plenty of ideas. In the few days that I've had it, its been used frequently to clarify and illustrate our own ideas about the cabin that we're planning. As far as I'm concerned it has paid for itself already.
Down with McMansions.......2006-07-10
God, this book is so lushly illustrated with cozy spaces and intimate hideaways that you just want to scramble for the hills after one read-through. All the houses in it are deliciously comfy and cozy, illustrating the forgotten principle of 'just enough', all look just big enough,a nd all look terribly inviting and tempting. This book is cabin porn, basically.
Invites repeated browsing.......2006-02-22
I love this book. I keep going back to it for ideas for building a summer sleeping structure for my large back yard. For people who love the outdoors and are drawn to the concept of living structures which invite the outdoors inside and vice versa, this book is full of inspiration. There is something for everyone in this book and you would be hard pressed not to find at least one structure in this book which has you itching to pick up a hammer and a saw.

Book Description
Hit and Run....... In New York there was a contract on his life. In Nebraska there was a plastic surgeon guarded by a punch-drunk fighter. And somewhere in New Jersey there was a red armored car stuffed with money. Parker, his appearance altered, hadn't changed a bit: he was going to take the little red wagon down. But there was a catch. There was always a catch. This one's name was Alma, a big, busty woman with anger etched onto her face and a plan to cross Parker and his crew. Now the questions were: Who was in it with Alma? And after the stealing, the shooting, and the stabbing stopped-who would be alive to make a getaway?
Customer Reviews:
Snoozefest.......2004-10-25
Huh? Did we all read the same book? I rarely do reviews on books that I didn't like, but I'll make an exception in this case. I've enjoyed many of Stark's books....really enjoy Parker's escapades and no nonsense way, but I think he kind of slept through this one. This is a very short read about one heist. The reader is forced to read through every little detail about the job, including road directions that you could actually follow, directions that are often repeated. Details are important to flesh out mission impossible style plots, but this is a very basic armored car take-down at an out of the way cafe. The adjoining plot has more potential, but never really builds up any suspense or momentum. There is a daily bathroom break for someone Parker has "on ice", and that's real exciting too. This is a short story stretched out to novel proportions. Very disappointing..........had to force myself to finish it. Won't stop reading Stark, but will research future purchases better.
Great follow up.......2003-01-13
You don't need to read the predcessor of this book to enjoy it, but you might as well. This is book is great from start to finish. It is thoroughly enjoyable.
No-Nonsense Criminal.......2002-05-31
Most people who have just had their face reconstructed would be inclined to go through a period of mourning as they lament the loss of their familiar appearance. Not so with Parker. Apart from a quick glance in the mirror to make sure he looked different, he is completely unaffected.
This reaction probably best sums up this mysterious and dark character. He always prefers to take the most prudent action rather than be ruled by his emotions, giving him a cold, calculating persona. But these same qualities also make him very efficient and strangely likable.
After receiving his new appearance, Parker goes straight back to work in planning an armoured truck heist. He has some misgivings about the job because it involves someone he has never worked with before, but this is just another contingency for him to plan around. Indeed, it appears that Parker has been built with no reverse gear installed. Once a course of action has been planned, it's full steam ahead and as obstacles rise up, as they inevitably do in this caper, he deals with them head on, scarcely breaking stride.
This is the second Parker book, following his appearance in The Hunter and is a thoroughly enjoyable story. The no-nonsense attitude of Parker, whether it's going ahead with a plan or casually shooting someone in the ankle makes for very entertaining, if a little cold-blooded, reading.
Making a buck in the early '60s.......2002-03-17
Donald Westlake writes of Dortmunder, a bumbling petty criminal it's really hard to like. Then as Richard Stark he gives us Parker, a much more competent crook who will kill when he has to, and surprisingly or not, a much more likeable character.
It was written in 1963 when the mob was "The Outfit", Exxon was still Esso and you took the ferry to Brooklyn, not the Verrazano Narrows Bridge. Parker gets a new face from Dr. Adler, a plastic surgeon in Nebraska who was a pre 50s Commie, then goes back to New Jersey for an armored car heist. Skim and Elma, Skim's overbearing waitress girlfriend, set up the heist, develop an unworkable plan that Parker fixes and set up a doublecross that Parker anticipates. All would be fine except Dr. Adler has been killed, and a guy named Stubbs is sent to find the killer.
The interaction between Parker and Stubbs and their search for a swindler named Wallenbaugh, now Wells, take up the rest of the story. Parker's reasons for getting to Wells and going back to Nebraska to square things come from logic only his mind could concoct, but it makes for a fun adventure.
Parker Is Baaaad!.......2001-10-16
Richard Stark (Donald Westlake), where have you been all my life? Yes, I have read and enjoyed the Westlake capers, and particularly liked the deft and humorous touches. Who would have dreamed, this same man could come up with Parker?
Parker is impersonal, a completely professional robber and sometimes murderer. He rarely murders with any passion, unless you consider "irritation" a strong enough emotion to rate as "passion." We are not told where Parker comes from or how he became the way he is. However, he is by no means a robot. He is skillfully presented with many shadings of character.
The title refers to Parker's new face. He has undergone plastic surgery to make himself more anonymous to anyone looking for him. He is quite indifferent to this new face with not a thought to whether it is an improvement or otherwise on the original. The story is a caper that begins dubiously ("too many things to watch out for"), and he is right to be doubtful. In spite of his meticulous planning (a joy to read for sheer professionalism), more and more factors clog up the works. We are saved from a bloodbath because Parker is not a vindictive man.
I marvel at the perfection of the writing; the story flows, everything fits and there are no loose ends (Parker would not stand for that.) It's a fast read, and I am now totally addicted. The Parker books are just coming back into print, and those that are not are usually available used. Come join the fun if you like your mysteries and humor very noir.
