Book Reviews of Grant Writing For Dummies

Book Review: Solid Overview Combined with Specific Directions for How to Apply
Summary: 5 Stars

"Oh, that I might have my request,
That God would grant me the thing that I long for!" -- Job 6:8 (NKJV)

If you are totally new to looking for grants, Grant Writing for Dummies will save you a lot of time, effort, frustration, headaches, and expense. I have been dabbling in grant writing and knew that I was over my head. Any chapter of this well-thought-out book will be worth the book's cost to you.

I particularly liked the idea of becoming a grant reviewer, as a way to obtain a keener understanding of the decision-making process.

I was pleased to see that the book contains a complete example of a grant application narrative, which I found to be very helpful.

In addition, the author refers readers to lots of free resources (both online and off) that are sure to yield better opportunities.

I don't know how successful my future efforts will be, but I can at least be sure to be working on the right things in the right ways.

Thanks Dr. Browning!
