Antique Trader Guide to Fakes & Reproductions, 4th Edition Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I purchased this book when I became interested in antiques and found myself scrolling the pages of Ebay for treasures. The book is invaluable in pointing out many of the creative ways con artists have ingeniously come up with to defraud the unwary buyer. The biggest flaw of the book is that it is a survey...

Tricks of the Active Trader: An Insider's Techniques for Getting the Edge Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)There is a reason why this book has two reviews after two years in publication--smart people have NOT bought this book. The book is filled with the author's attempt at light humor mixed with his "prestidigitations" and believe me, not a bit of the first 89 pages are worth a dime unless you want to know...

Sir Francis Drake: Slave Trader and Pirate (Wicked History) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The first book I read in Scholastic's series was Mary Tudor: Courageous Queen or Bloody Mary? (Wicked History), who has a "bad reputation" in history for executing Protestants. So she fit into the infamous category. Francis Drake, however, has a swashbuckling reputation owing to his exploits benefiting...

Antique Trader Antiques & Collectibles 2009 Price Guide (Antique Trader Antiques and Collectibles Price Guide) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I purchased this because the 2008 version had great reviews compared to other antique guides. One of the strengths was they had more pictures than their competitors. Well, it does have lots of pictures. But there are so few items listed for each section that it is of little use, unless they happen to...

Antique Trader Collectible Paperback Price Guide Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This book falls short as a reference book or a price guide although the pictures are nice. Of the 1000+ paperbacks in my collection from the 40's through the 60's, I found 47 in this book. No publisher fared well but Ace Books seemed particularly unrepresented. Authors such as Anderson, Norton, Nourse,...
