.The Art of Raising a Puppy
City Travel Guides > Books > Expert Advice
by: The Monks of New Skete

March 20, 1991
I brought home an 8 week old shih tzu and used the recommendation to tether him in my room and provide a blanket for him to sleep on. After only 3 nights he was sleeping all night long and when he needs to go out in the morning he barks once. It is amazing how well this worked. I have read numerous puppy books and this one far exceeds any of the books. The focus is on understanding your new best friend and applying the proper techniques to raising a happy and obedient pet.

.Martha Stewart's Homekeeping Handbook: The Essential Guide to Caring for Everything in Your Home
City Travel Guides > Books > Expert Advice
by: Martha Stewart

October 31, 2006
When I finally ordered this book after drooling over it for months I couldn't believe how HUGE it is. At first, I thought they had shipped me an extra book by accident. This book truly is an encyclopedia of cleaning. I had no idea that people did most of the things in here, and I learned that I've completely destroyed the finish on my sinks by cleaning with Comet and a serious scrubbing sponge, the way my mom taught me. She even tells you how to organize, pick cookware and bakeware, remodel your kitchen, and so much more. I recommend this book to all who have a home and especially for those awesome stay at home moms who get all tingly about cleaning the house, inside and out, like myself. I didn't like Martha Stewart before, but I'm definitely ... Read More:

.From Vines to Wines: The Complete Guide to Growing Grapes and Making Your Own Wine
City Travel Guides > Books > Expert Advice
by: Jeff Cox

January 03, 1999
When we were planning our vineyard we needed all the help we could get. From Vines To Wines was one book kept by the bedside for constant reference during the planning and planting stage. (The other book was "Vineyard Simple." The illustrated guide to pruning is exceptionally well done. Now that we've made it through year 1, I find myself going back to the book time and again. I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in planting a vineyard. Craig Justice, Webmaster of Winemaker's Journal and Founder, Blue Merle Vineyard & Winery

.Martha Stewart's Baking Handbook
City Travel Guides > Books > Expert Advice
by: Martha Stewart

November 01, 2005
I love this book. As someone who hasn't been baking too long, this has helped me a lot. I normally don't get too hung up on pictures in cookbooks. Yes, they're nice if they're there, but I can live without them. In this case, they are extremely helpful because there are so many different desserts in this book that I had never even heard of before! Luckily every single recipe in this book has a beautiful photo. I also like the sections about baking equiptment. Those sections helped me tremendously when I registered for my wedding. I knew all the pans and gadgets I was missing and was able to ask for them all. Some of the chapters are a little more intimidating (at least to me who doesn't have a lot of baking experience) like the breads and pastries, ... Read More:

I've been on the search for the perfect wedding cake recipe for over ten years. You can call it an obsession as I personally love the way wedding cake tastes and I'm not even married! I bought this book as soon as it was published and the recipes are incredible - as well as the photos. For anyone who bakes wedding cakes this is one recipe book worth the investment.
