After growing up in the circus and living more or less full time in RVs for a large portion of my life, I thought I knew everything there was to know about RV travel. I was wrong. Bernice Beard has written one of the most useful and comprehensive books for RV owners ever, filled with innovative tricks and tips to make life in your RV as hassle free as possible.

Needless to say, if you are new to RVing this book is an indispensable guide that you'll be referring to on a daily basis, whether at home or on the road. If you're a veteran RVer you'll still get plenty of useful ideas that will make your travel easier and safer.

The chapters cover everything you need to know and then some. Interspersed with the practical data are the author's colorful tales of life on the road.

Chapters include:

• Getting on the Road Maintaining your Coach before a Trip and on the Road
• All About Campgrounds
• Using Electronic Equipment on the Road
• Getting Along: Romantic Relationships on the Road
• Travel Courtesy, Travel Comfort
• Getting & Staying Organized
• Tow Cars & Towables
• Destinations & Sightseeing
• Renting or Buying an RV and Adapting the Interior of your Rig
• Driving, Mileage & Fuel
• Navigating
• Coping in the Kitchen: Food, Water & Entertaining
• Staying in Touch: Telephones & Mail
• RV Safety
• Maintaining & Storing your RV After a Trip
• Traveling with Children & Pets

The book manages to be thorough without being overly technical - you don't have to be a mechanic or even mechanical to understand it. This is the best RVing book that has ever come across my desk as editor of Camper's Corner.
