If you would like more information on Trusts, I would suggest
the following sources. There are many books on Estate Planning and
Revocable Living Trusts, but of the ones I have read, the following are
the ones I found to be most informative, easy to read, and directed to the
general public. (The costs given are subject to the publisher.)

Publishing, 1995). Sold primarily in bookstores in Sacramento. If you
can't find it, you can order it directly from the Law Office of Nan
Goodart, Sacramento, CA (916) 422-3000. Cost: $16.95, plus sales tax. If
purchased by phone, there will be an additional charge of $2.50 for
