from Simon & Schuster
Price: $12.89
Customer Review:
It was a pleasure to read a true perspective of this founding father. This book made him more human than history has made him in the past. The author did a fantastic job in trying to explain why he was the way he was and painted a vivid description of the life and times. On the other hand, I have... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

| 4. |  | The Economist Book of Obituaries (Econo Books)
Customer Review:
My Overall Opinion of the Book
This book was fascinating, educational, funny, political, and judgmental. It is almost never sad. A collection of 200 obituaries written between 1994 to 2008 (each one two pages long), The Economist Book of Obituaries is oddly enjoyable and fascinating. It may... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

from MITCH
Price: $10.17
Customer Review:
This is a great little book. It has a lot of good information in it, and it's very conveniently sized.
Since there's a lot of good about this book, I'll start with what I don't like.
First of all, the dust jacket gets in the way. The book has a chart inside the front cover that gives a... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

Customer Review:
I don't really know anything about this sort of book (I teach in a college and don't think much about how kids pick or apply to colleges) but I bought this for my nephew who was massively uninterested in applying anywhere and it WORKED. He got interested in these schools and filled out... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

from St. Martin's Griffin
Price: $14.95
Customer Review:
This is a good book to guide you through the perils of academics and basic college issues. However, the sad fact of most American universities is that exams are easy and you will do great on them if you go to class, do the readings, and study. The greater challenge is dealing with social pressures... more info | 3.5 / 5.0

This review is based on the 2006 edition.
If you're trying to find an agent, Herman's Guide is certainly the place to start. Perhaps the best thing about HG are the detailed responses to Herman's queries about each agent's attitudes towards writing and writers, as well as the sorts of books... more info | 4.5 / 5.0
