Stacy Crete (stacycrete) | 22 comments Hi guys, I purchased this book used on the cheap (at least cheaper than a new issue), but to be honest, this reads like a dictionary. I simply can't read this straight through, it's quite a chore, and extremely boring to do so. I guess it's great to thumb through on occasion and pick up the info that way.

Casey | 4 comments Thanks for the feedback Stacy. I have been wanting to land a copy of this book, as it comes recommended for all book collectors. Now, I know what I'm in store for.

Stacy, although it reads like a dictionary, some of the comments are rather funny. I found it somewhat entertaining, although I read it very slowly over a long period of time.
