5.0 out of 5 stars What a relief-Finally, a mountain of useful information..., April 23, 2001

This review is from: To Russia for Love: The American Man's Best Option (Paperback)

I had to come back to Amazon and write this review. I purchased Frank Coleman's book over 3 month's ago while I was preparing for a trip to Ukraine. The book saved my tail. I was hanging out in the different forums for a while and all I was getting was advice from people that were more lost than I. I just came from the best trip of my life, met 3 of the most beautiful girls and now I am planning a return trip. If I had not read this book while preparing for the trip, I honestly think the trip would have been a disaster. I think that every single man should go to Ukraine or Russia. If they read this book, they will find out what the best kept secret really is and it is not here in the USA. The trip was the most eye opening experience I have had in my life. You hear often how beautiful, elegant and educated the FSU women are but words really cannot describe it. Just go there and you will be glad you did.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST HAVE for frustrated American men, September 20, 2000

By 

Joe Walker (Southern California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: To Russia for Love: The American Man's Best Option (Paperback)

I've read Frank Coleman's book twice and I must say it gets better each time. Him and I both went to Russia several times and we both are VERY HAPPILY married to Russian women...(we didn't go together! I've never met the guy!) This book explains in often hilarious detail how so many educated, upper middle class Western men are finding fantastic women in the former U.S.S.R. ( )END

1.0 out of 5 stars Not helpful, amateurish..., December 18, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: To Russia for Love: The American Man's Best Option (Paperback)

This book is a joke. One can get far more accurate and practical information for free from several mailing lists and web sites dedicated to finding, courting, and (hopefully) marrying a woman from the FSU. Turns out that this is more of a sketchy and disjointed (this guy is obviously not a writer) travelogue of resturants, casinos and nightclubs, conquests (ick), and the occasional rant about how great Russian women are compared to American women. This book doesn't even make it as a document of one man's personal quest; by the end of the book, the reader doesn't even know whether the author decided to persue marriage with anyone at all. Stick with the free newsgroups and save your money.
