Book Reviews


Almanac of the 50 States
"This work is helpful for those needing information on numerous points or a quick fact. It should be included in all types and levels of libraries. It is very informative, easy to use, and well written."
–Scott DiMarco, Director of Library Services and Information Resources, Mansfield University, Mansfield, Pennsylvania (review in American Reference Books Annual)

"Data gathered from multiple government publications constitute this handy reference book on the 50 states...this almanac's convenience and easy-to-use style make it a valuable resource. Summing Up: Recommended. All levels."
–S.L. Pham, Kutztown University of Pennsylvania (review in CHOICE)

Asian Americans: A Statistical Sourcebook
"While statistics are buried in various government resources and are tricky to locate, this volume serves as a ready reference for the Asian American population as a whole."
–Ma Lei Hsieh, Librarian, Monmouth University Library (review in American Reference Books Annual)

Black Americans: A Statistical Sourcebook
"The utility in the volume lies in part in its format--eight chapters divided into broad topics (e.g., education), with a single page in turn devoted to a particular subject (e.g., nonmarital childbearing). The tables are easy to read, and each includes a specific source note to lead the user to more detailed tables…This work is recommended for academic undergraduate reference collections."
–Anthony J. Adam, Reference Librarian, Prairie View A & M Univ., Coleman Library (review in American Reference Books Annual)

California Cities, Towns & Counties
"This rather hefty volume provides an excellent source for statistical information on California. Its organization and arrangement make for easy access…Both academic and public libraries should find this reference work a valuable addition to their collections."
–Lucille Whalen, Dean of Graduate Programs, Immaculate Heart College Center, Los Angeles, California (review in American Reference Books Annual)

Energy, Transportation & The Environment:
A Statistical Sourcebook and Guide to Government Data

"This timely reference work offers a large quantity of statistical data on three key subjects that will affect present and future generations. That said, it is an excellent reference source for anyone interested in general and detailed statistical data covering these three topics....It provides a good 'Guide to Sources'...This reference source belongs in academic, public, and special libraries. Excellent glossary. Summing up: Recommended. All levels."
–T.M. Marini, Kansas State University (review in CHOICE)

Hispanic Americans: A Statistical Sourcebook
"This statistical annual will be helpful for marketing and demographic research in business collections of academic and large public libraries."
–Kay Stebbins (review in American Reference Books Annual)

Massachusetts Municipal Profiles
"This book will be invaluable in the ready-reference sections of public, governmental, law, and business libraries in Massachusetts, and selectively in similar libraries in other states, as interest demands."
–Martha Stone, Coordinator for Reference Services, Treadwell Library, Massachusetts General Hospital (review in American Reference Books Annual)

North Carolina Cities, Towns & Counties
"An Awesome Compilation of Information…The publications should be valuable additions to public libraries and to those of schools, community colleges and universities and to public agencies and businesses needing a quick and comprehensive source of reference material."
–Gene Price, Editor (Retired), Goldsboro News-Argus
