A good Accounting for Small Business Book

[ganpingin]

Can anyone recommend a good cover-all book to teach a Small Business Director the necessary bookkeeping and accounting procedures that are involved in managing a new business?
Preferably one that covers the Irish system? I know, this seem like a big all-encompassing request, but there is bound to be one out there that deals with the day-to-day needs that every small business has?

Thanks for any advice!

Where are you based?
It is probably best to engage a local accountant/tax advisor

I do plan to engage an accountant. However I would like to learn as much as I can about the procedures in the meantime myself.

Can you recommend a good book that deals with the Irish Tax System and Bookeeping for the small business?

I found Bookkeeping for Dummies to be pretty good; the manual that comes with your accounting software is also likely to be of help.

Thanks for that recommendation. However I was hoping that a book might exist that deals with the Irish System... does anyone else know a good Irish-related Bookeeping for Small Business Book?

Thanks for all the replies so far.

I found this but no idea what it's like I'm afraid.

Thank you very much Midsummer! That is just the kind of book I was looking for!
