Well... I had high hopes for this book. I had done some research of MLP's in articles, annual reports and other data easily collected from the internet. When I ordered the book, I was hoping that it would take me deeper into the subject. Like how to value a particular MLP, what things to look out for on their balance sheet, p&l or cash flow statement particular to the industry they were involved in. Like where to look for trouble spots. There is virtually nothing in regards to the Oil and Gas industries that underly these MLP's. This is essentially a book of lists. The book is a large format paperback, with large type, very generous spacing on the pages, and some repetitive information. The book is 191 pages. The first 1/3 explains the VERY BASICS that are available on the web and the balance of the book is lists of the different MLP indexes, and the listed MLP's available, their address, ticker symbol, phone number, website etc. Hello Yahoo Finance. And each MLP listing takes up a whole 8"x10" page - seriously? Nothing that warrants $25. If this is all it takes to research and write a book to sell, I am focusing on the wrong things. If this book were normal type size and spacing, it would be lucky to be 60 pages! It was a waste of $25. Just use google. I gave it two stars instead of one, for Richard Stooker's return on time invested in writing it.
