5 out of 5 stars Superb -- readable, direct, informative   September 17, 2003
 23 out of 24 found this review helpful

These two professional grantseekers provide a very helpful perspective for both newcomers to the grants world and those with experience. The grantmakers interviews are particularly helpful, and the honest and unpretentious style of the book make it an enjoyable read.


5 out of 5 stars A Model of Its Kind   September 18, 2003

I live in London, am an interested observer of the relationship between local government and the private sector but not someone who would ever actually have to write a grant proposal. The beauty of this book lies in the combination of fascinating insider knowledge and graceful writing. It even made me laugh out loud at times.No small feat. All in all, a remarkable achievement.


3 out of 5 stars More for organizations than individuals   April 4, 2007

It more geared towards someone writing for grants for a non-profit as opposed to artist/business grants.

This is priceless - being a first time grant writer, it is the best resource I have read to help me through the process. Thank you, Ellen and Arlen!

I found this book especially reader-friendly in spite of the complexities of the grants process. The glossary of terms and the interviews with people who give grants offered valuable insight into the world of grants.

I especially appreciated the emphasis on the need for collaboration. This was presented in a convincing manner!
