The Complete Idilt's Guide to Grant Writing, 2ns Edition

I found the book to be easy to read, understand and it gave me a base of knowledge about how to procure grants.

Good

I liked this book on grant writing but it did not tell me anything new on how to go about getting money, that I do not already know. It's not a bad book. I wish there was something more... The information here can easily be found online. But I guess if you are an absolute beginner in grant researching this book may be for you. Info contained in a nice package, not too disorienting while reading.. It's good.

It was everything I anticipated and loaded with information I needed to know to further my research.

A Must Read for New and Experienced Grant Writers

This guide is a fantastic reference for grant writers, from those just starting out to very-experienced fundraising professionals-there really is something here for everyone. It's clear, well-organized, and engagingly written. It's also incredibly comprehensive, with information on every possible aspect of the business. The book walks you through the entire process, including who has the money and why they give it away, cultivation of possible sources, the actual writing process, budgets, even sample proposals of all kinds. The advice it gives is concrete and the information in it is easy-to-use. As an experienced grant writer, I highly recommend this book!

You're Not An Idiot If You Buy This Guide!!!!

As a person who is just delving into the grant writing arena, I have discovered this book to be an easy to understand "must have" guide. Reading this book put the whole business of grant getting together for me. The section on research was really thorough and the budget chapter was really helpful.
