4.0 out of 5 stars Very American!, 18 Jun 2003
This book provides examples of cover letters that the authors say "work". That of course is a debatable point and one I'm waiting (but hoping) to prove (watch this space!) I think that the book is useful in that you can actually take the letters and adapt them but I'm a little dubious about all of them "working" : some are too much like marketing slogans e.g. "Hold all the resumés, I'm the Sales Rep you're looking for" may "work" with one recruiter but risks seriously annoying another! But I think the advantages of this book is that it is clear and easy to use - there are several different chapters for specific letters and there’s no wading through lengthy theory on writing styles/grammar etc. The tone is very upbeat and positive and after reading it/following the advice you will at least have a template of a letter that will make an impact and hopefully get you that all important interview (at which point it will be time to get another book!)

3.0 out of 5 stars A bit too cheesy, 3 Jun 2002
This book is only really useful if you are looking for the basis from which to write your own personal cover letter. Some of the chapters are generally useful, although the use of quotes from famous people or personal recommendations to open a cover letter is not something that I would define as a 'winning tip'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Book offers very value-added tips and samples, 7 Jun 1999
By A Customer
I was really pleased with this book. It has a over 20 chapters of different kinds of letters, offering tips and then including samples to use. I found it more creative and "real world" than others I had worked with in the past. Authors did a good job
