This book was extremely helpful to me because I was just starting out as a travel nurse. It told me all about things that I had never even considered, including taxes, negotiating for benefits that I need, etc... I also like the section in the back with the listing of companies and room to take notes. Not sure if this book would be helpful to someone who has been a travel nurse for a while, but for a new traveler I highly recommend it. The author is very nice about answering any other questions via email.

After searching for any books on Travel Nursing, I came across this book. The ONLY one!! I am currently in the process of becoming a travel nurse and this is just what I needed! I recommend this book to anyone who is wanting to become a travel nurse. It has really answered many of my questions. It gives you a timeframe of what to do, what all paperwork you need, ways to negotiate with a company, even a thorough list of travel companies and what they offer!! An excellent much-needed resource for the new traveling nurse.

After several unsuccesful attempts to get information on travel
nursing, I stumbled upon this book. This is a number one book that explains EVERYTHING! The reading is professional, objective, and informative. Everyone that is considering travel nursing needs to read this book. I wished that it was longer. I really enjoyed reading this book, and couldn't put it down. Thank you!

I came across this book through another fruitless search on finding information for the Travelling Nurse. What a find! This book is a definate invaluable resource for nurses who are considering entering the profession of travel nursing. It contains information on how to get started, "the tricks of the trade", where to find other resources...
If I were to take only one book with me in my travels, it would definately be this one!

Great book. Gives good insight to this adventerous world of travel nursing. I definitely recommend this book.

Shalon's book is full of great reference material for any nurse who wishes to join in on the fun of travel nursing! I carry BOTH this book, and "Highway Hypodermics: Your Road Map To Travel Nursing" with me at all time on my travel nursing adventures.

This book is an awesome guide to travel nursing. There is a ton on information about travel companies, taxes, and about generally making the most of the travel nursing experience. Great book!

There was some helpful advice in this book but I was expecting to get more from reading this book. It was very short and covered things superficially without getting into much depth.

I am a recent grad from a nursing school and I plan to venture into travel nursing next year. I found the book to answer all of my questions and more.

I've researched the absurd price on this book on several other websites have it at hundreds of dollars as well. I've never seen anything like it. I'm floored.
