Good Reseller

A beautiful book

This book is beautifully done. Marvelous pictures and descriptions of a variety of houseboats. It gives real insight into a lifestyle that few of us will ever experience. Someday I hope to become a part of this very small but extremely interesting lifestyle...

Awesome

Awesome -- That's all I can say. If you're interested in houseboats for any reason, this is your book. History, information, great writing, and awesome photography! This one interests everyone.Great coffee table book.Kathy -- neighbor to "The Lindner House" featured in the book.p.s. If you live in the Portland, Sausalito, or Seattle Houseboat communities, you will especially enjoy this book.

Fabulous Gift Book

I gave this book to a few close friends for the holidays. I have never had such great feedback about a giftbook. The book is not only beautiful to look at, but it contains such great details, history, and stories about houseboats and their owners. I definitely give this 5 stars!! I look forward to Flanagan's next book!
