A 225 page E-Book filled with valuable advice and information! [index.html] The ultimate source of knowledge for anyone interested in finding a Russian bride. "Your book was the most helpful guide in preparing for me meeting Russian women. I have read Smiley’s “Your Russian Bride, The Shocking Truth” and Petrova’s “How to Marry Girl Like Me,” and yours was the most no-nonsense, reality-based resource that provides a superior knowledge-base for preparing you to dating women of the FSU. To be honest, your book provided such a powerful reality-check that I have considerable trepidation in seeking a Russian Bride. You have left me with the impression that meeting a truly honest, genuine, and considerate Russian woman is just as difficult as I have experienced here in the US (please correct me if I am wrong). This is in direct contrast to the various agencies’ advertising of seeking women who all appear to be “perfect.” I do freely admit, however, that the photographs posted on the various agencies’ web sites are absolutely stunning and alluring. The photos alone would not tempt me to join an agency. But when I read more about the Russian women’s strong educational backgrounds, fluency in the English language, and their innate desire for children and be part of a loving family, I decided that I need to learn more about this opportunity and really educate myself as to what I am getting into and determine reasonable expectations." Emilio Boulder, CO "Well I've read your book-CD and I have to commend you on a no bullshit very straightforward approach to information on this subject. I really appreciated the honesty. I was so entranced in it I read over 100 pages the first night! The complete text was very thorough and comprehensive on the subject of finding a mate overseas. Many of us out there with no prior experience with finding a foreign bride can only admire your efforts to educate American's (as well as others) as to the pro's and con's of attempting this approach to finding someone special from the former Soviet Union and it's republics. I can only hope your book becomes the standard for all men partaking in this endeavor in the future. As far as I'm concerned, this is mandatory reading for any man considering this approach to finding a foreign bride. Good luck and many thanks again! Jim K. Newbury Park, CA Jim K. follow-up a year later: Just wanted to give you an update on my search for a lady from the Ukraine. I'm sure you don't remember but we spoke once about a gal I was corresponding with in Krememchug. I have to tell you your advice was right on the money. Originally, I found her at Kiss.com and over time she began asking me to send money to bring her here. I began doing that like a fool. Eventually, thru more research I found a 'Scammers' web link. I was surfing thru this site and low and behold, THERE SHE WAS right before me. Everything in your book you said to be aware of turned out to be true. Thanks again! It's great that you took the time to get all this valuable information out there for others to make useful. Jim K. "Just a little note how much I enjoyed reading your FAQ, definitely going to save me some heartaches and headaches not to speak about financial setbacks." Arlid R. Chanhassen, MN "Your book 'Russian Women FAQ' proved to be very helpful in preparing me for my trip. Although I only discovered it long after I was seriously involved with my RW, the sections on culture and travel in the FSU and on the fiancee visa process were very helpful, and generally accurate. Thanks again." Fred W. Torrance, CA "Why didn't I find you six months ago?! You could have saved me so much grief and money. Your information is a God sent! I was learning, but slowly. Now I have some information that is really helpful. Also, I am sure you hear it a lot, but I would love to get to meet you and know you. If you are anything like what you sound like in your book, I LIKE YOU!" Doug Lakewood, CO "I just wanted to commend you on such an excellent job of putting together the rwfaq that I purchased last month. It's an excellent and probably the most informative of all reads I've done ever since I started messing around with this venture in 1998. I really appreciate your outright criticism of dumbass men too. Cracks my ass up with the old fat bald guys bypassing the obvious looking for 18 year olds. Ha!" Brian Snelville, GA "I have just finished reading your book after buying it a week ago. I found the book to be an invaluable piece of work on both travel in Russia and Russian culture. It seems to contain so much of what I want to know in a very well organized question and answer format. Anyway, I really enjoyed reading your book and have really enjoyed watching your website and your contributions to the RWL over the last two years or so. I'm residing in Nashville and would love to hear when anymore books, guides, etc. come available." Ben M Nashville, TN "I read the entire book in one sitting! Fascinating! I just wanted to let you know that I am finding the book very helpful and it gives me hope." Sandy M. Vashon, WA "When I first got started in my attempt to find a Russian bride, Steve Markos advised that I read Russian Women F. A. Q. I'm glad I took his advice and bought a copy. After reading it I have decided to pursue a foreign bride, but many men might change their minds. Anyone who gets involved in this process without reading information such as is provided in this book is simply FOOLISH!" Greg A. Atlanta, GA "Thanks for the quick response on getting the book to me. Very well written and informative. You have definitely displaced some myths I had on Russian women. I like your realistic outlook on everything." Scott C. Fort Worth, TX "Received the CD today and am well in to it. Very enjoyable! I was on the Russian Women List for a while but the volume got to be too great, editing out nuggets like you did is helpful." David F. Takoma Park, MD "I received the RW FAQ CD last week - thanks for sending it so promptly. I am planning a trip to Kiev and probably Russia, and cannot imagine doing so without having first consulted this wonderful resource. I am very impressed by the breadth and detail of the information provided. And, it is extremely well-written." Nick S. Bradenton, FL "This CD Book is excellent!!! I'm currently on p. 193, with eyes much wider open now..." Dave J. Manchester, NH
