Poll Idea Book

Very helpful. Great photos, Helped us to do things we would not have considered.

Zillions of Pictures

This is a great book for pool ideas. It contains ideas for just about every kind of pool and there are lots (350, at least) of photographs. This is just what I was looking for since we are planning to put a pool in our yard and it's a blank slate. This books is great for those without a lot of imagination, like me.

More pictures than you can shake a stick at!

I looked through lots of pool idea books in my local book store and none of them had as many pictures as this book. There are a few pages of text in each chapter, but the bulk of this book is 4 (or so) pictures per page which is exactly what I wanted in an idea book. I recommend highly.

Excellent Buy

This book has a great variety of pool designs from contemporary to rustic designs. Fabulous book with alot of great pictures.
