BOOK REVIEWS
"Just when I thought I had read every kind of book there was on RVing, RVers: How Do They Live That Way? came along....a witty fun read package... a must read for RVers and the ideal gift for the family and friends who don't quite understand them."

"If you doubt the publishing industry has ignored our lifestyle, just visit Barnes & Noble or Borders book stores and try to find something on RVing.... and the social sciences have ignored our field as well. At last, a husband and wife team of retired psychologists have written a serious and humorous study of the human side of RVing – RVers: How Do They Live That Way? Congratulatiosn Judy and Lou!"

"The authors cover all aspects of the human side of RVing, from the honeymoon stage, to losing a partner, to aging gracefully. There is even a chaper devoted to hanging up the keys – something of us want to think about, but all of us ultimately face. I recommend this book to everyone who has an interest in RVs."

"From the moment I started reading, I was hooked and couldn't put it down.... This could easily become the Bible of the RVing world....it appeals to "newbies," long term RVers, and those who are simply curious...."

"RVers: How Do They Live Like That? Provides first-hand insights into the dynamics of RVing relationships. Lou and Judy use their own experiences to illustrate the pros and cons of this lifestyle in an easy-to-read fashion. This book is full of helpful information for first-timers and is a great refresher course for the seasoned RVer."

"This impressive book offers a useful and informative insiders look at serious RVers. If our patients really practiced the "Four rules for Maintaining Good Road Health," we'd see more of them on the road and fewer in our emergency rooms."

Donald Moran, MD, RVer |
"After treating RVers for twenty years I found that this book explains my RV patient's mindset and why they travel so much. I hope this book will encourage them to practice preventative maintenance on their bodies like they do on their RVs, so they can keep enjoying the "freedom" they are always telling me about."

"Former family counselors, Judy Farrow and Louis Stoetzer, created a unique book describing the human interactions. Inside the tin box we inhabit, "Dr. Ludy," as they call themselves, bring their years of professional knowledge, their own experiences on the road, and their eighteen-month research project on RVers....and the result is a book full of insights and suggestions for RVers to deal with each other and with their families and friends they left behind, and other life issues. I highly recommend this book to all those who currently live on the road as well as those who are contemplating entering this rich lifestyle."

"What a wonderful book! It reminded us of why we are RVers. We are sending copies to all our friends and relatives who still don't understand us!"

"My wife loved it! This book taught me a lot about the RV community that I did not understand. I thought the observations about human relationships while RVing was first rate, and we both want to read your next book!"

"Full time RVing is not dropping off the face of the earth and it is not an endless vacation. Judy Farrow and Lou Stoetzer in RVers: How Do They Live Like That?, show what RV life is like, the styles of RVing, and what to expect as full-timers. Sprinkled with actual cases, it makes for fascinating reading and gives voice to those things we've experienced but never put into words. I recommend it both for those thinking about the RV lifestyle and to help relatives of RVers get insight into the lifestyle. Current RVers will enjoy the book....and find it helpful, particularly at transition points in their lives."

"I never read anything like this before: I learned a lot."....."I stayed in my rig last night reading your book. I missed the evening show and it didn't phase me a bit!"...."How come no one talks about this stuff? I think your insights into the human part of RVing is right on the money."...."My wife kept reading parts of it to me when we droved into town. She wouldn't stop talking!"

Readers' Comments |
"We cannot say enough about the value of RVers: How Do They Live Like That? After RVing for several years, including stints as Red Cross disaster volunteers, we were surprised how much we learned from this informative and humorous portrayal of the RVing world. We were especially drawn to their discussion of social networks and support for RVers, a subject we think that is often neglected by those of us who take to the road. Keep up the good work Lou and Judy!"
