Well organized. January 31, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I have just recieved this book and am about to start my first travel nurse assignment . I felt compelled to write this review because I don't feel the criticism heaped on it by "Mary Schultz RN " is warranted . The book appears well organized and echos what travelers I have talked to have told me . I would like to get Shalon Kearney book as well but the $110.00 price is alittle steep !

I Can't Believe The First Review September 26, 2005
6 out of 12 found this review helpful

This books is crammed full of travel nursing information, and the editing was done with such great skill with the assistance of published author, Kristie Leigh Maguire. Didn't find too many grammar and spelling errors myself.

I loved hearing the different places that the author had been and also the stories from other travel nurses. Yes, there is some information on Phoenix and her first assignments, but six pages on one city? Don't think so...

The only thing that the first review is for is a good laugh. Totally amazes me how she can be such a GREAt all knowing reviewer, and has only reviewed this book.

Shalon Kearney's book is a good book, and has very helpful information, but some if it is outdated already... in fact, some of the information in this book is outdated already, and it just came out.

I have BOTH books and I use BOTH of them for reference information. Both books have great information, and are definitly worth the money.

Great Book, Written By Someone Who Is Out There! May 24, 2005
8 out of 9 found this review helpful

This book is packed with wonderful information about travel nursing. Written by a nurse out there on the road, about what it is really like to be out there on the road.

This book not only gives you informaton about locations and hospitls, but most valuable information about travel nursing compaies.

The most up to date book out there on travel nursing.

This book doesn't have much information on travel nursing. The writing is absolutely terrible. The grammar and spelling errors are so bad that it's difficult to read at times and makes you wonder how it ever got published. It's as if it was never edited. The author talks way too much about her own experiences and in a weird way. She talks for six pages about her travel assignments in Arizona, including detailed descriptions of every golf course in the area (not a short list) The descriptions of the areas and hospitals she's been to are not even helpful, they sound like tourist brochures. For instance, a line from the book "King City, California...a big adventure in a small community." Who cares, I want information on travel nursing, that's why I bought the book. Trust me, the only thing this book is good for is a laugh. And it also makes you realize the anyone in America can get a book published. Buy Shalon Kearney's "Hitting the Road." It has much more information and commonsense.

I'd like to apologize to Epstein for the above review. I saw she had a new version of her book and happened across my review and realized how mean and uncalled for it was. It got me thinking and I took the book back off the shelf and read most of it again. I can see how it might be somewhat useful to a brand new traveler, especially considering the EXTREME shortage of objective information out there for/about travel nurses. I think that was my biggest beef with this book, I didn't feel like it was objective. I felt like it was more of a journal of her personal experience as a traveler rather than a guide. The review I gave was a product of frustration at not finding the information I needed/wanted as a traveler. Now after 3 years as a traveler, I continue to be frustrated by the lack of accurate information out there. So much of the information we travelers get is sponsored by the agencies that profit from us, and doesn't always lead us down the right path. That is why I had such high expectations for this book, I thought it was going to be the first objective reference for travelers and was disappointed. It didn't meet my expectations but I shouldn't have left such a nasty review. I'll probably buy the newest version just to see the differences.
