5.0 out of 5 stars Great introductory book to Restraunt Franchising, October 26, 2003
By 
This review is from: Restaurant Franchising (Hardcover)
After evaluating numerous franchising books, this one has been the most useful especially if you are looking to franchise your own restaurant. The content of the book more than pays for steep price.
