1. First of all the word complete does not belong on the cover of this book. I think that this book is a perfect example of someone trying to do everything but ends up not doing anything well. There are books dedicated to subjects such as guns, knives and decoys, which could have been left out of this book. I think chapter 14 is a good example this chapter tries to cover cartridges, shotshells,and powder cans and kegs. There no descriptions, or pictures and it barely touches on each subject. If i had to describe this book in one word it would be disappointing, I would not recommend this book to anyone.



2. Take this great little book along with you to the next church yard sale, estate sale, or flea market, and you may find yourself going home with a unique fishing lure, an old Orvis rod, or a box of old shotgun shells-without paying too hefty a price. Great descriptions; great pictures. I keep it by the bedside for quick reads. Highly recommended by an old duck hunter and his black labs.

1. If you are out to collect gas-station artifacts this book will be useful in that it shows photos of a myriad of pumps, pump globes, petroleum product containers, and signage, along with price ranges. However, the display of 137 historic gas-station photos suffers from rather muddy reproduction on matte-surface paper that prevents showing the detail to be found in the original glossy prints. (On slick magazine paper, I've seen many of these same photos come to life. Why any photo book is printed on anything but slick paper is beyond me.) Despite this, the sheer volume of stuff and the text outlining the history of gasoline merchandising should be enough to engage the imagination of highway travel fans.

1. From a 1903 Packard to a 1957 Chevy Bel-Air Convertible to a 1992 Saturn--The 2000 Standard Guide to Cars & Prices is an exceptionally comprehensive price guide covering vehicles for most of the last century. Prices/values are shown using the "1 through 6" rating system, which is the standard in the auto-enthusiast arena. Also included are lesser-known vehicle makes and models, like the Frazer, the Hupmobile and the Henry J, as well as light domestic trucks and even imports. Even the book's size makes it convenient to carry in your own vehicle or to take to car shows. Cars & Prices is a must-have for the serious car collector, restorer, seller or admirer of classic and soon-to-be classic vehicles.

1. This is an excellent book, which ties together the entire history of the car from the early Jeffery thru Nash, and with the merger of Nash and Hudson, into the last form of independent automaking until it's death in 1987 ( although some '88 models were sold ).
   Many technical sections, covering models and options, history and photos, experimental models. While not 100% accurate, there are some bloopers, it is about as close to fully documenting AMC's history as has been done nowhere else. A fine addition to anyone's home library.
