New Sensations For Horse & Rider: Introducing Voice Training.......2004-07-19
I saw the author giving a demonstration here in England with her horses, this was why I bought the book. I found it very easy to read and I loved the little stories that remind you things don't always go to plan when you are workng with horses,it has also tempted me to try my hand at driving. It is a very interesting book with lots of super photographs and I would really recommend it.
Book Description
Extraordinary cigarette lighters can be found in the strangest of places--in a garage sale, at a swap meet, perhaps even in your own basement. This convenient, hand held guide introduces a history of lighters through a comprehensive, alphabetical presentation of styles, organized according to company name and dating from the late 1800s through the 1980s. In an effort to appeal to new collectors, well-known makers such as Dunhill, Ronson, Evans, Scripto, and Zippo are included, as well as unusual and interesting lighters from smaller and lesser known companies. Never before has a book shown such variety and magnitude of lighters with this much detail and color: over 800 lighters are illustrated along with current market values. Whether you are a collector of lighters or interested in art and design, this book will give you insight into the style, beauty, and value of cigarette lighters. And once you start collecting, it may be hard to break the habit!

Vintage Lighters.......2007-05-15
This is a good book for vintage lighter collectors if you use it in conjunction with The Big Book of Cigarette Lighters.
The Handbook of vintage Cigarette Lighters.......2007-01-16
Good reference for finding lighters and knowing what you have.
The ultimate guide for the lighter collector.......2000-04-11
More than 2o books about collectible lighters have been published in the past years. Many are focused to specific lighter manufacturers. Books with a wide content, covering many different aspects of lighter collecting are scarce and often incomplete. This book is different. It gives a new collector the optimal idea about collectible lighters of this century. Fantastic models are shown in excellent quality and there is not much missing. I am a European collector for many years and I must say this book covers the global lighter collecting quite perfectly. In addition it is both affordable and handy. Congratulation to the editors-
Outstanding! A very informative book on cigarette lighters.......1999-11-17
This is a great book - a must have for anyone dealing in cigarette lighters. It is the only book I know of that gives such a complete over view of vintage lighters. A highly recommended read!
Bob Brockmann New Haven, Indiana
Great lighters, photographed beautifully........1999-11-17
Well thought out presentation of collectable lighters. Pictured items cover the gamut of beginner's basics, to extremely rare pieces that most advanced collectors will never own.
Certainly a "must have" for all lighter collectors, and an interesting historical perspective for non-collectors.
Book Description
Cigarette lighter collectors, here it is! The Big Book of Cigarette Lighters is the reference that you have been waiting for. This all-new hardcover, full-color book contains hundreds of new photos not included in the Collector's Guide to Cigarette Lighters, Volumes I and II, all with full descriptions and values. There are numerous chapters detailing many timeless classics from a variety of styles, including Advertising, Art Deco, Novelty, Occupied Japan, and many more. This is a 'must have' book with something for everyone.

Vintage Lighter Collection.......2007-05-15
This is a great book for vintage lighter collectors. I have two from the 50's that I could not find a value for anywhere until I bought this book.
Save your money, find another book.......2005-06-29
Waste of time and money, there was almost no information, not a Zippo in sight, all odd ball lighters, no details just quickie price information including sections on matches, holders and other non-lighter items. We needed a price guide to lighters, and this was not it. The only thing big about it, well there was nothing big about it, as a matter of fact there was not a big value, or even a big book, much smaller than most price guides.
easy-to-use guide with color photos and succinct captions.......2005-01-26
Colorful photos capturing details of hundreds of all kinds of lighters make this a prime guide for collectors. The captions right beside each photo note material, manufacturer, date, size, and price range--e. g., "Chromium lighter/case, made for king-size cigarettes, by Evans. Circa early 1950s. 4-3/4"h, 2-1/2w. $30.00-50.00." Animals, Art Deco, Beyond the Ordinary, Decorative, Miniatures, and Sets are among the many different categories. The category Miscellaneous Tobacco Accessories for pipe holders, match boxes, cigarette tins, etc., comes at the end. Numerous sharp photos, simple informative captions, and clear organization make this a ready reference for collectors and dealers at all levels. With its many photos arranged orderly, it is particularly useful to beginners to scan through to find out what types of lighters and related items to keep their eyes open for at flea markets and other resources.

nice price.......2001-11-29
i 've owned this book together with the vol 2 for some years now ,and at this price it's a must-have for any collector. it is pretty general in it's aproach, but aren't many collections? can the experts write some more of them ?( there's a real demand for 'em ! )
Photos features primarily the lowest quality of lighters.......1998-06-30
This book appears to be a catalog of cigarette lighters that are widely available. It appears quality was not a consideration in the selection of these lighters (mostly japanese and low quality junk from the 50's-60's). These are, by and large not the items that have turned lighter collecting in to the popular hobby it is today. The saving grace of this book is the fact that it also includes about 70 pages of old catalog reprints showing some of the higher quality lighters available from the 20's-30's. It would have been nice to see some actual photographs of these lighters instead of the black and white and color drawings used in these vintage ads. However, these ads save the book, if not for these ads, the lighters photographed for this book would make it a good guide for what not to avoid in lighter collecting.

The best of the "general" lighter collecting books.......1998-08-24
This book is a great introduction to the lighter collecting hobby. It shows a lot of the nicer pieces not seen in the other general guides and prices are much more accurate as well. Besides a few minor errors in lighter descriptions this book is of the highest quality.

Cigarette lighters, a must-have book for collectors.......2007-08-14
This is the leading book on cigarette lighter collecting. There are nearly 1000 lighters illustrated in color. The variety is incredible. From Zippo to Dunhill and so many more. There is even a value guide to give you an idea of value. This is the authors third book on lighters and they really went all out to make this the best book ever.
Product Description
On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on cigarette lighters and other lighters in Austria face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying cigarette lighters and other lighters to Austria? How important is Austria compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of cigarette lighters and other lighters vary from one country of origin to another in Austria? On the supply side, Austria also exports cigarette lighters and other lighters. Which countries receive the most exports from Austria? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers? This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for cigarette lighters and other lighters in Austria. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for cigarette lighters and other lighters for those countries serving Austria via exports, or supplying from Austria via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models. In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing where Austria fits into the world market for imported and exported cigarette lighters and other lighters. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for Austria in particular, is estimated using a model which aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both demand- and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market destination. These shares lead to a volume of import and export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and world totals. In doing so, we are able to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of both the value of each market and the share that Austria is likely to receive this year. From these figures, rankings are calculated to allow managers to prioritize Austria compared to other major country markets. In this way, all the figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal information sources for strategic planning purposes.
