Customer Reviews:

Very helpful for the everyday person.......2002-05-08

This book was very simple and easy to use. It is FULL of pictures and guides which I found very helpful. Many of the ideas are perfect for getting started. A few of the more difficult concepts were way over my head but this book was very helpful to me when I chose color schemes for my new home. Not only can you get help with matching up color schemes, the book was also very helpful in identifying mood colors so that each room is inviting and makes people feel comfortable. I would recommend this book to anyone in need of paint, wallpaper or other color medium help.

Product Description

Egypt's two Western Desert oases of Bahariya and Farafra offer visitors some of the most varied and beautiful scenery in the country–lush walled gardens of olives and palms fed by hot water springs, narrow, twisting alleys between mud-plastered houses in the old villages, and the extraordinary natural rock sculptures of the White Desert. The photographs in this book capture the amazing visual variety of the region, while the text describes the way of life there

Customer Reviews:

Awesome book!.......2005-02-16

I highly recommend this book. I bought this book years ago when I was just starting my own collection agency and found it to be VERY helpful.. FULL of great information, tips and letters. Ed Halloran certainly knows what he is doing. Anyone wanting to collect more money should purchase this book.

very helpful information.......2001-07-26

I read this book after starting my new job as a debt collector and it helped me to triple the amount i was collecting the month after I read it. I only read the areas that directly affected my specific job, so I can only speak for some of the book, but what i did read was well written and very informative. A definite for anyone collecting or dealing with credit collectors.
