5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, an all you need to know guideline to construction, October 6, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Site Calculations Pocket Reference (Paperback)
Being in the business for several years now I have searched long and hard for a manual or book that sums it all up, well folks, I've found it. From cover to cover this book is filled with all you need to know for on site construction. Not only does it have all the info I need it is sizeable enough that I can carry it with me everywhere on the job and believe me I do. Not only that but I believe that my son will be able to use it in his studies in college. All in all you can't go wrong with this book. It's a one in a million deal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, a book that answers the REAL questions......., April 14, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Site Calculations Pocket Reference (Paperback)
I found the book to be an inclusive reference for the many scattered bits of data, information and guidance that are needed when one takes on the construction of a large project, such as a golf course. The multitude of decisions that you run into normally cause many delays, while the answers are sought and decisions are pondered. This book gives a quick reference that can be handy to both the site superintendent or construction foreman. A must for any golf course superintendent and everyone involved in golf course construction.
