Start-up approach to beginning accounting

I bought this textbook precisely because it presented a framework for accounting that would be encountered by a start-up company. When I studied first year accounting it was what you would call bookkeeping and I don't remember it as being particularly interesting. This book, because of its ongoing narrative about the start-up, was much better. It lacks color and graphics such as you will now find in many other texts, but did quite well in getting Elevation Sports up and running. Maybe the authors can find a more interesting start-up, but the premise is a good one that I hope other authors will follow.
