How to Form a Non-Profit Corporation 
I am looking into starting a small, 501(c)(3) charity. This book is extremely detailed, and it gives step by step instructions on how to start a non-profit, but I think it is over my head! This book goes into the details of how to form a corporation, but not on how to fundraise! I am still confused as whether I can fundraise first, or if I legally have to establish the tax exempt status, first!

Like having a lawyer in a book 
Anthony Mancuso has packed a lot of legal expertise in a easy to understand book. Here's some strengths of the book:
* Checklist very handy to accomplish all the tasks in the correct order
* The author asks common questions and then answers them clearly
* Advice on what to do and what to avoid
* It's like having a lawyer in a book
Weaknesses:
* Bylaws a bit overly long for small, new nonprofits
* Not enough emphasis on the need for accounting help to file annual IRS... more info

good book, however...... 
This an excellent book to start your non profit but the bylaws, article of inc., and other such documents is typed in the back of the book but not on the disc. You evidently have to retype it yourself. The 1023, ss-4, and other forms are on the disc with the publications. In general, I wish the book went more in depth about the 1023 form since this is the most critical form for a non profit. Otherwise, excellent book and great tool for starting a non profit organization.
