Book Reviews of The Complete Idiot's Guide to RVing
Book Review: The Essential RVing Companion
Summary: 5 Stars
If the name Brent Peterson sounds familiar, its probably because youve read his byline in the pages of the major RV magazines. Lucky for us, hes put his nose to the grindstone and cranked out a 404-page compendium of RVing wisdom. This encyclopedic how-to book is a one-stop RVing resource, complete with tips on choosing an RV, buying it, running it, maintaining it and traveling in it. If you're an RVer, you need this on your bookshelf. Better yet, on your dashboard.g
Book Review: Great Book for a newbie
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought this book before we purchased our first new to us RV. Because we were new to the RV world, this book was perfect for us. The first half of the book explained types of RV, the second half the different systems in the RV. I found the book easy reading and informative and now that we have had our RV for a year, we still refer to this book from time to time. I think it's well written and worth buying and I highly recommend it!Book Review: Very helpful in making complex systems understandable!
Summary: 5 Stars
This guide was really helpful in explaining the complex mechanical systems in RVs, especially Class As. We're in the looking stage of buying right now, and some guides made the "guts" of RVs sound so complicated we were worried about whether or not we could take care of our new "baby" once we bought it. Brent Peterson made us much more confident in our ability to RV with the best of them in a few years.Book Review: Too General To Be Of Use
Summary: 2 Stars
Unfortunately this book spends more time about shopping for an RV than the actual RV and it's systems. The Woodall's guide is both elementary and detailed and assumes you've already purchased the RV.In short, if you want tips on buying an RV and a cursory glance at the water, LP, and other systems, this is a passable book. But if you want to REALLY understand how things work, I'm afraid you'll have to look elsewhere.
Book Review: Best book ever for beginners!
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought this book before we purchased our first RV. It helped us know what to look for and how to inspect it. By the time I finished the first 50 pages, it was worth the price. I would recommend this book to anyone purchasing an RV for the first time. It explains everything for before and after the purchase. Well worth the $ and time to read it!
