Not impressed.......2007-05-26

I thought that Dwayne Clark would have a more insightful book. It is just another HR book. Sorry.

Interesting.......2007-03-23

I have enjoyed reading this book. As a Nursing Home Administrator (with an RCFE License too) I found some very good recruiting ideas along with some good hiring practices. I've always made sure my employee's have fun days and when coming to a new facility we've always done an employee break room make-over. The employees need to know they are appreciated.

A Great Book for your Fifth Fly!.......2007-02-08

Fly Tying for Beginners by Peter Gathercole is an excellent Fly tying book. I have been fly tying for about six months now and I have searched for the best Fly tying books around. As far as Fly tying books goes for a beginner, it probably doesn't go in detail far enough. But after your first couple of flies(Four or Five), this book would be excellent. To start off with this book covers a lot of flies, 50 in all. In addition it has a spiral binding, so you can open it up as you tie, which I feel is mandatory for a fly tying book. The description of each fly is four pages long, highlighting the most difficult parts. On the first two pages it gives a detailed picture of the fly as well as pictures of the material needed to make the fly; this is particularly helpful to a beginner. It also tells of the type of fish that this fly would presumably be used to catch. As far as the general info on the book it has the usual Pictures in the front of the book to show particular techniques as well as the basic tools and material used. One of my favorite parts of this book is on page 47. It has a fly selector with pictures of all 50 flies in the book which is very helpful, especially when you only have limited abilities and material. Over all this is one of the best books I have seen on fly tying so good in fact that I bought it for my own Reference.

The Best Fly Tying Starter Edition I've seen...........2006-09-01

I Manage a Fly Fishing retail outlet and would see most of the flytying books available.
Fly Tying For Beginners: How to Tie 50 Failsafe Flies would have to be the best I have seen by a mile. It starts with clear and simple explanations of all the gear names and recipes required to start tying. A great tool for the raw beginner and seasoned tyer both.
Great fly recipes top off a very valuable addition to the flytying creel. Its a must have, there is no doubt in my mind there is nothing like it on the market. The Fly Tying Bible[by the same author] also follows on from where Fly Tying For Beginners: How to Tie 50 Failsafe Flies this book brings the tyer's skills to a high level with clear and simple recipes and picture instructions.
The binder cover is the best idea since slice bread, its sits on the tying bench and can be easily referenced without closeing up or looseing your page.
To the Auther... Thanks for a chance to sell and use this great publication.

Not bad, but ..........2006-06-24

There are some truly great things to say about Mr. Gathercole's book, "Fly Tying for Beginners." First, it is laid out in a very sensible manner. Starting with tools and techniques up front, followed by a list of flies, all in awesome crystal-clear color photos. The book's size and wire wound binding makes it so easy to use on at the tying bench.

That said, as a novice to fly tying, I found myself going to other resources to research techniques such as tying hair wings. In addition, it would have been MORE helpful (for me) if some of the techniques I needed to use were found in the same pages as the fly I was tying at that time. One other point is that I found myself having to guess several times on tail lengths, hackle sizes,and occasionally material placement.

Overall, I'm very glad to have this book as a reference, but I'm also glad I have OTHER references to assist me with the gaps of information I found missing in this one.

Excellent book.......2006-03-04

This is an excellent book. It is for beginners and that is exactly what I am. The photographs are in bright full color and take you step by step through the tying of the fly. There are a lot of fly tying books out there and I have looked through dozens and dozens of them. Not one of them came close to being as good as this book.
The wire o' binding that lets the book lie flat is just an added bonus.

Fly tying for beginners.......2006-03-01

The book is as user friendly as is possible. It's ringed binding allows it to lie flat on the table and the size of the book is just right, not too small nor too big. The diagrams are easy to follow and unique in their design. I like novel designs and compliment the author on his creativity. If I were to design a book, this would be it.

Book Description

Indispensable learning aid includes definitions of common Spanish words arranged by such categories as foods, numbers, days of the week, months, colors, seasons and family. At the book's heart is a dictionary, from a to zapato, where each word is used in a Spanish sentence (with English translation) demonstrating its proper use.

Customer Reviews:

no glossary.......2007-10-17

It would be helpful... IF I could speak Spanish first! There is no glossary to help me find the word in English first. If it had cost more, I would have sent it back... unused

Could use a little more........2007-10-09

A better than fair, useful beginner's book. Translates the words and uses them in sentences.
However, I could use perhaps another thousand or so words! Still, better than a lot of beginner Spanish books!

Great, small book!.......2007-09-29

I love this book! It is very easy to use to help increase one's spanish vocabulary!

simple and highly useful.......2007-09-27

It includes verbs and many daily common words. It's not extremely deep or complicated, but it is definetly useful if you are trying to learn spanish. Definetly worth it

SayHola dot com uses this book...........2007-09-24

Our online course at SayHola dot com teaches you how to speak the Spanish Language but this book is a great tool building Vocabulary. We recommend it.

Book Description

Author, Buddy Cox, who spent ten tears working as a deep sea diver of the Louisiana coast, uses his own experiences, as well as tales heard from his diver friends to weave a saga of dangerous underwater exploits, of romance, and of hoped-for booty, reportedly waiting to be found deep in the Gulf of Mexico, at a place some call appropriately, as we will discover, the Crater of Doom (Campeche Bay, off the Yucatan Peninsula). Our divers, Stretch and Wes, are used to facing danger daily, but they must decide if they are willing to face new, unaccustomed and unforeseen dangers as they race against unscrupulous rivals to recover supposed treasure. A rare coincidence will make their journey weirder than their wildest dreams. This first book in a series will leave you eager for more.

Customer Reviews:

A Must Own!.......2006-07-11
