This book provides a complete overview of timeshare development and
operation models. The authors take a comprehensive look at the
present and future of this growing segment of the hospitality
industry, including specialized approaches to marketing, human
resources, service quality, finance, legal considerations and
professional ethics. Timeshare, or vacation ownership, is a
relatively recent leisure phenomenon. It emerged in the late 1950s
as a way to secure extra capital resources to fund property
expansion. Shareholders had the right to use these properties on a
regular basis. Although arrangements have grown in complexity and
variation, the model allows for customers to buy rights to use a
property for a fixed time period each year. Timeshare arrangements
have experienced rapid international growth particularly in the
last fifteen to twenty years and are now an important vacation
arrangement. Most of the world's major hotel and resort developers
now operate timeshare properties. Firms like Marriott, Hilton,
Hyatt, Disney and Ramada have brought a new formality and
legitimacy to timeshare development and operation.
Environmental Management for Hotels is a textbook for hospitality
students that covers the relatively new field of environmental
management. The reader is guided in how to make decisions which
allow hotels to obtain optimum benefits for the environment whilst
not threatening their own financial viability.
Students are given an understanding of both the concepts and
practical implications of environmental challenges relating to
hotels. The case study material incorporated ties in theory with
real life, and provides an international context. The text
emphasizes supervisory issues which relate to the management of
hospitality operations in ways which are sensitive to the impact on
the environment. The main areas of environmental management
featured are: *water *energy *the indoor environment *materials and
waste.

This richly illustrated book introduces readers to "the golden
one," as Rebula has been lovingly described. Rebula grapes, an
ancient varietal once prized by princes and popes, are indigenous
to the region that now straddles the border between Italy and
Slovenia. On the Italian side the area is called Collio, in
Slovenia Goriska Brda. It has been rated by experts as among the
top five wine terroirs on the planet, shoulder to shoulder with
Bordeaux and Tuscany. Wine experts agree, calling Rebula "a dream
wine of a new age." Rebula was rated the World's Best Wine in 2010
by sommelier Luca Gardini, and a Rebula has received an astounding
100 points on Wine Spectator's 100-point scale. Beautifully
designed with full-color photographs, the book recounts the
fascinating story of Rebula and the history of wine in what was
once Yugoslavia and is now Slovenia. The protagonist is a
remarkable vintner, Zvonimir Simcic, one of the founders of what
was Yugoslavia's most important winery before the country
fragmented. Almost single-handedly responsible for the preservation
of Rebula, he resurrected the forgotten varietal and transformed
his home region, spectacular Goriska Brda, from a poverty-stricken
area into one of the globe's great wine destinations. Pulitzer
finalist Noah Charney provides a personal, humorous, deeply engaged
travelogue through the little-known world of Slovenian wine that
will delight adventurous travelers and wine lovers everywhere.

Wilderness abounds in New York State. From the Great Lakes to the
Atlantic Ocean, from the Adirondack Mountains to the Catskills,
from the St. Lawrence River to the Hudson, millions of acres of
public lands are dotted with hundreds of campgrounds but you
probably only have a precious amount of limited time. Where should
you go? When should you go? That's what Best Tent Camping: New York
State is for to help you make the wisest use of your time in the
wilds of New York. Divided geographically into seven sections Long
Island, Catskills/Hudson Valley, Central/Leatherstocking,
Adirondacks, St. Lawrence River, Finger Lakes, and Western the book
is a helpful reference for camping enthusiasts throughout the
state. Historical tidbits, descriptions of wildlife and the
occasional personal anecdote add flavor to the campground
descriptions. Star ratings and maps make choosing the best place to
pitch a tent a simple task. Making reservations online or blindly
over the phone can put a camper miles from the restroom, stranded
with no shade, or in the middle of a busy campground trail. Maps
will help campers avoid those pitfalls, and wherever possible the
author has even recommended specific campsites for maximum privacy,
spaciousness, or beauty.
