Great Comprehensive Fulltime Lifestyle Book,
By Marsha E. Pratt (Livingston, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Full-Time RVing : How to Make it Happen (Paperback)
The previous individual to comment on this book seems not to understand what the word "approximate" means. This is one of the most comprehensive "How to" books that my wife and I have read concerning our chosen way of life. Ms. Minshall has included many of the minor details that other fulltime lifestyle books on the market today have left out. We can guarantee you that without knowledge of these "minor details", inevitably small problems will become major ones. "Charlie" has shared this information with wit and humor and in a writing style that allows the reader to stop, re-read the last sentence or paragraph, and then proceed without losing the main thought. We find this book a "must-read" for anyone contemplating a fulltime lifestyle on the road

A Fun Way to Learn the Ropes!,
By
This review is from: Full-Time RVing : How to Make it Happen (Paperback)
This was a fun book! As someone planning to jump into full-time RVing, I am looking at the adventure both with excitement and anticipation. However, I also have some apprehension and trepidation at the same time. Charlie's book covers just about all the basics of the full-time motorhome living, travel and adventure experience. Her writing style is conversational spiced with bits of humor, some of which is tongue in cheek. I wouldn't say that this book is really a "nuts and bolts" book, I'll find the more mundane aspects of the full-time experience in other books. But, I gained a tremendous amount of insight into, not only Charlie's thinking and experience, but also into the culture of the modern day nomads who travel this country, exploring the back roads, small towns, canyons, forests, mountains, beaches and so on. They each seem to leave a positive footprint wherever they go - and that's just what I'm looking for. Thanks, Charlie - I'm going to read your other books, too. At the very least, they will be entertaining, but I'm sure they also offer great ideas and wisdom, too.
