1 Excellent reference for all small business owners
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is starting or who has a small business. There is a ton of good information and great references given throughout the entire book. I am very impressed with the amount of good information in such a small, compact book.
2 Comes Up Trumps
'The Unofficial Guide to Starting a Small Business' is a well-written manual for the entrepreneur whose corporate ambition is focused closer to Everest's base than to its summit. When I recently showed this book to my good friend Donald Trump, he said, "Schwarz, you're right. This is a terrific book, but there's another way to start a small business that just can't fail. Acquire a large business and instal Enron's ex-chairman Kenneth Lay as CEO."
3 Great resource guide, filled with useful information.
I just got the book and cannot put it down. Ms. Turner makes a potentially dry subject come to life. I particularly like the sidebar information, good examples to support the overall message.
4 What a great book!
This is one of the best books I've read on this subject. Marcia Layton Turner really knows her stuff. I bought several copies to give to friends who are thinking about starting businesses.

Quote of the Day:


In order to live free and happily, you must sacrifice boredom.

It is not always an easy sacrifice.

Florence Flask was ... dressing for the opera when she turned to her
husband and screamed, "Erlenmeyer! My joules! Someone has stolen my
joules!"

"Now, now, my dear," replied her husband, "keep your balance and reflux
a moment. Perhaps they're mislead."

"No, I know they're stolen," cried Florence. "I remember putting them
in my burette ... We must call a copper."

Erlenmeyer did so, and the flatfoot who turned up, one Sherlock Ohms,
said the outrage looked like the work of an arch-criminal by the name
of Lawrence Ium.

"We must be careful -- he's a free radical, ultraviolet, and
dangerous. His girlfriend is a chlorine at the Palladium. Maybe I can
catch him there." With that, he jumped on his carbon cycle in an
activated state and sped off along the reaction pathway ...
