Default These books are great!!

I wanted to jump into this discussion and give these books two thumbs up!! I read the first one faster than I've read a book in years and pre-ordered the second volume on amazon.com as soon as I heard it was coming out! It arrived yesterday and I am going to finish reading it today!
I love the way the author presents the book as if you are on a shoot with him and he's giving you tips. It's not filled with technical terms, but instead he adds his humour into the mix of excellent information! He even suggests equipment at three different price ranges (which is SO helpful if you are on a budget).
Anyway, get these books! You won't be sorry!!
Peace,
Terry

Two thumbs up from me as well!
I love the Kelby books. The fact that they are so easy to read and have the one-page subject format makes them invaluable to me. I pretty much took the first book with me whenever I went on vacation in case I needed a quick reference. The quick "how-to" guides helped me get several photos that otherwise would not have turned out well.
I just bought Vol. 2 and stayed up late reading it (the next day at work was miserable!)

I plan to add this book to my bag when I travel, hopefully it will only bring more wonderful photos.
