(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Dream Windows: Historical Perspectives, Classic Designs, Contemporary Creations (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book, the author assists you with questions to ask yourself, and gives you many options. A book you will use again and again when considering window treatments. I bought another book, 1001 and one ideas for windows, and it didn't compare at all to this book.
