Starting and Operating a Business in Idaho

Starting and Operating a Business in Idaho (2011) is the most complete tax and legal guidebook in existence for Idaho small businesses. The author, a retired attorney and CPA and a Harvard Law graduate, provides you with a detailed but easy to read explanation of the tax and legal "ground rules" you need to know to navigate successfully through the complex maze of federal and Idaho tax and business laws and regulations.
