Customer Reviews

This is the bible for the exporter
Now in its tenth edition this book provides a handy refernce to the serious exporter highlighting the technical aspects of export documentation and legal issues. A reference book written in clear concise english rather than a good read, not a text book, but a handbook for the shipping department. Precisely written rather than pedantic. The reviewer is on his third copy which highlights the fact that this like all other handbooks becomes out of date. Quite simply this is the best book of its type.
