Easy to read and has lots of helpful information
This book is for the 2008 version of Quickbooks. This book was written by the experts on this program. The book is easy to read and understand. There are hints and tips scattered throughout to help you even more. Many illustrations are also included to help the reader understand each section. The index at the back is extensive and helpful so that you can quickly find what you need. Some accounting knowledge is needed to be able to understand what the program is doing with each account, general ledger, etc. This is a great guide and I feel it is essential to have if you want to use all the features of the program. It was definitely worth the cost of the book.

Very good for a beginner
This books is great for users with little accounting background just starting out their own business - A Must Read
