Title : Last Will Testament Kit
Author :
Rating : 2 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Far too basic
I was very hopeful when I ordered this pack, but very dissapointed when it arrived. The pack comes with a CD which I was expecting to be loaded with files and information, but it only has a total of 272KB of files on the CD !!!
There are three basic will-types included for each of England/Wales and Scotland.
Far too basic, and I don't have a complex requirement.

Reading Penner is like reading a storybook. At some points, the reader might even forget that he/she is reading something that has heavy academic weight. Penner presents his materials in a breezy, easy to understand manner to those who are newcomers to the law of trust.

Title : The Law of Trusts (Butterworths Core Texts S.)
Author : James Penner
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Excellent analysis and very useful
This is a clear and informative guide to the law of trusts that is written in a far more accessible style than most trusts textbooks.
The night before my Equity exam at university, I glanced through this book (in quite a state of desperation!) and found clear, concise explanations to several concepts I had been unable to fathom all year. For a full explanation of the law, you may wish to turn to a weightier tome, but if you want to understand the key principles of trusts at degree level and have a reasonably short time to do it in, this probably your best option - it has just about the right level of detail to help you get to grips with stuff you will hopefully have time to read in more detail later...
Penner's style makes the book both straightforward and interesting (not an easy task when dealing with this area of the law!) and puts this text in the realms of the very, very useful.

Title : Last Will and Testament Kit
Author :
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : A very useful product
My wife and I decided that we needed to make our wills, however morbid as this process can seem, once it is done one can rest assured that things are taken care of. It doesn't take long in comparative terms and if you can steel yourself to do it it brings a lot of peace of mind. This kit is extremely helpful and cuts the cost considerably. A reviewer has said that it is too basic - well, it must have been improved since then (which was in 2002) because we found it contained everything we needed. The instructions are clear to follow and the forms clearly set out. Will storage is also offered at a very competitive rate. All in all we found this extremely helpful in what can be a tricky task.

Title : A Guide to Probate in Wisconsin
Author : Pekowsky
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : I really don't care about camels but this was great!
I really couldn't care less about camels; But this isn't a boring book about camels. This is a book about a guy who loves Explorers. The spirit of exploration and the excitement of the unknown, drives the author and soon drives the reader. The guy is nuts to go into the desert of deepest China (especially at his age!) but you understand why he does it and by the end you will care about the camels too. It made me laugh out loud in places - but then you must have a sense of humour to do something like this!

Title : Cases and Materials on Equity and Trusts (Cases Materials)
Author : Paul Todd
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : An excellent book
This is an excellent book. I would advise that it should be used in conjunction with a "heavier-weight" textbook, such as Hanbury Martin; but as a cases and materials book, it is well worth investigating.

Title : The Self-help Guide to Managing Death and Probate: Manage the Legal and Financial Side of Death Yourself
Author : Gordon Bowley
Rating : 3 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Death Probate - Practical Comment
This book covers making executing/administering a will in England Wales (Note: This legal jurisdiction is important and unclear from the author's and amazon's description). As stated by others the pro-forma letters are useful. It is written in a style appropriate to its most common readers i.e. the recently bereaved, its easy to read and very inoffensive. Its good on probate wills, but weak on tax affairs (presumably to aid the books longevity).
I bought this book and found it useful when needing this knowledge.
