5.0 out of 5 stars A Helping Hand!, 1 Jul 1999
By A Customer
Karl Preston's advice is so helpful and honest! In an industry that basically makes it's money by ripping off young, naive men and women trying to achieve their dreams, this book is like a diamond in the rough. It gives you step by step instructions, with practical advice, and REAL expectations for yourself and the industry. Thanks, Karl!

5.0 out of 5 stars A real opinion from a real person!, 10 April 1999
By A Customer
I stumbled onto this book as a total idiot to the world of modeling. I followed its steps as far as to contact Karl. After talking to him for only a few minutes I knew he was giving me the "Real Story" on the business. His advice as a photographer and as a model has helped me get a confident start on a promising career. This book cuts through the smoke and mirrors and gives the reader the realistic approach to the business. This small investment will save you literally thousands of dollars in starting a modeling career as well as educating you on all the scams, and illegitimate agencies that paint a newcomer a false picture. A must read for all wannabe models and parents who are interested in a Modeling career for their child.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT BOOK !!!, 29 Sep 1998
By A Customer
This book is fantastic! I looked for so long to find a source like this. MODELMANIA sums up how to successfully pursue the modeling industry. It's easy and enjoyable to read. Its real life stories (not over-glamourized) throughout helped me gain valuable insight and knowledge about the modeling world that I wouldn't otherwise have. Karl Preston gives you his 14 years of experience for you to draw from to chart your own highly successful path.

MODELMANIA very simply and plainly takes you through the step by step process of going from point 'A' to point 'B' and so on, towards your own personal success. The whole book is geared towards getting you up and running as quickly and cheaply as possible...from getting your first job, to finding continuous success...and ultimately making big money time and time again.

It's by far, the only book on the subject that does a perfect and complete job of covering every aspect of the modeling industry. I huge listings in the last third of the book are invaluable by themselves. I was able to hook up with agents, photographers, clients, photo labs...Anything you need...any question you have...It's there!!!
