"If you want to see the country and like the comforts of home, At Your Own Pace: Traveling Your Way in Your Motorhome is the travel guide for you. Clearly written with anecdotes and examples, Bernice Beard demonstrates motorhoming from the wheels up. Readers gain insights into buying and driving a motorhome, finding campsites, and keeping in touch with loved ones while on the road. There's information about tow cars, hooking up to utilities, "dumping," and more, all in the context of a trip in a 34-foot motorhome. At Your Own Pace is a must for anyone contemplating life on the open road in their motorhome."
--Jim Cox, The Bookwatch, July 1997
"A new RV guide shares life on the go and helps beginning RVers tackle their own roadtrips. . . At Your Own Pace is more than a travelogue - it becomes a storehouse of valuable information on such topics as buying and driving an RV, locating campground sites, towing additional vehicles, getting laundry done, and keeping in close contact with loved ones. The subjects go on, but the tips that she gives are invaluable and should be on every RVer's list. . . As an added bonus, At Your Own Pace includes an appendix of commonly asked questions and points to remember when choosing an RV or other motorhome. . . There is also a listing of helpful publications and periodicals, RV trade associations, and campground directories that prospective RVers should consult."
--Western RV News, September 1997

This may serve as light, harmless reading for a born again retired couple but it hardly makes for interesting reading to a motorhome owner who isn't quoting bible verses in their daily logs. I had hoped for a more generous offering from an author who had much more experience and much more in common with my own experience. If the most exciting thing in your motorhome life has been discovering you had to install a queen bed because the twin beds were hard to make, then go for it. Or maybe the test of your adventure limits was learning that you needed actual mirrors in additon to the rear mounted parking camera to see what you needed to as you made your way to the next rest stop. Where was the salesperson when these folks decided a rear mount camera could be used as mirrors?!! If you're into hard core motorhoming, this book will cure your worst case of insomnia. Sorry I ordered it.

Snore. Billed as "the answers to your most important motorhoming questions" instead we get the journal of a perfectionist, retired woman who decided which motorhome to buy because its exterior stripes matched her profile in "Color me Beautiful". There is no information here about owning, maintaining or driving an RV. Instead we learn what a dufus her husband is because he does not make a bed "right" and cuts his sandwiches diagonally. Agonizingly bad.

I bought this book hoping to find information and tips about RVing. Unfortunately what I got was Bernice and her foibles and very little practical information. Her naivety grates throughout( going to Laredo to see cowboys only to find that all cowboys are in San Antonio for the Rodeo) but prehaps travel will be broading. In this case, one certainly hopes so.
