SWIFT

Great general purpose financial advice book, well organized and structured so as to allow the reader to learn as much or as little as desired.

This book is a great place for the do-it-yourself investor to look when validating what you are planning to do in your financial world. Worth its weight in gold.

Wow! Great practical information for the average person who just wants to know how to figure out this financial stuff. I've read a lot of financial books, but this one really is readable and accessible.

This book is ingeniously written by a mastermind who piers into the human mind trying to grasp its secrets. BUt as he shows in this book, the mysteries are still there. This professor of psychology is baffled by the wonder of the complexity of the human mind. How can it be made this way? he ponders this and we read his thoughts about it.

The author comes acros as egotistical. Most readers, other than his family and friends, probably won't care about his opinions and the personal details of his trip. When telling us of the people he encounters who work, live and play along the rivers banks, he displays a superior attitude (the educated reporter meets us uneducated local yokels)

I read about the journey when it came out in the newspaper and was interested to see how the book would be. The addition of more of the so-called "adventure" is not very interesting and comes across as filler. The story worked best as a shorter newspaper series.

I love the book and love Swift's writing.
Can't get enough of his writing in our local paper.
We learned so much about a river we never thought much about. It is a very interesting and exciting book. When my freind returns it, I'm also going to read it again. Great writing about outdoor Virginia.
