"Major gifts are at the heart of any coordinated, successful
fundraising effort. Julie Walker shows you how to do it all-- find
the prospects, staff the program, and ask for the money. The
sidebar stories and real-world examples sprinkled throughout the
book are entertaining, yet still make a point. I would buy it for
the advice and keep it for the anecdotes."
