.Frommer's Cape Cod, Nantucket & Martha's Vineyard 2008 (Frommer's Complete)
City Travel Guides > Books > North America
by: Laura M. Reckford

January 29, 2008
I have used this book annually as a resource when I am visiting Cape Cod. I have purchased other books similar, but always return to the latest Frommer's version. This is indeed, user friendly, accurate and provides the 'off the beaten path' type of things to do that one might easily miss. I would highly recommend this book over others. It's very user friendly and full of interesting tidbits.

.Fodor's In Focus Savannah & Charleston, 1st Edition (Pocket Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > North America
by: Fodor's

December 04, 2007
The Savannah section of this guide is only 30 pages out of 165. 1 map is very small. If you plan on spending any more than 2 days in the city I think you would want a more detailed book.

.The C&O Canal Companion
City Travel Guides > Books > North America
by: Mike High

March 22, 2001
Wonderful guide to the C & O Canal park that includes history and detailed information about the various mile marks. This edition is revised from the original. However, with the make-over of the Monocacy Aqueduct in 2005 and other changes the book should again be updated to include this information.

Still this book covers every aspect of this unique national park that spans almost 185 miles from Georgetown to Cumberland, Maryland, whether you are a hiker or biker or just a traveler visiting the various sites along the canal.

.Washington, D.C. For Dummies (Dummies Travel)
City Travel Guides > Books > North America
by: Tom Price

May 29, 2007
I have read so many guidebooks to Washington, DC and this is simply the best. It is excellent. The descriptions are very thorough. He explains everything in detail including which airport to land at, which restaurants to see White House Staff at, what exhibits not to miss in museums, and how to get tickets to monuments.
The book is laid out in parts with chapters inside the parts. Parts include Planning, Settling into DC(hotels, transportation, dining, and airports) Exploring (attractions, monuments, memorials, museums, shopping, day trips) and Top Ten (top ten views, top ten roadside attractions, etc).

.A Walk in the Woods
City Travel Guides > Books > North America
by: Bill Bryson

May 04, 1998
Bill Bryson once again brings his reader's along with him on an adventure in the wilderness. No disappointment here. Whether looking for a light read with a little satire and humor or really looking for some information to help you along the trail, this read does it all. Bill Bryson invites the reader along the trail with the ability to laugh at himself and in a non-offensive manner laugh at other's misfortunes the reader is not merely stuck on the 2100 mile trail with "Bill" but also finds himself in Bill's footsteps. A must read: 1) for plain entertainment; 2) for the information about embarking upon such an expedition, or 3) to have a laugh. This book has it all. Share it with your children.

.Idaho Atlas & Gazetteer
City Travel Guides > Books > North America
from: DeLorme Publishing

June 01, 2002
These Delorme Atlas & Gazetters are wondeful. They show you many features not available through GPS, maps or other atlases. It is a great feature to have the BLM lands marked as well as the back roads. Good resources are also included in each states atlas. A good addition to anyone's travel tools.

.Road Fever
City Travel Guides > Books > North America
by: Tim Cahill

March 03, 1992
I expected a lot out of this book, and maybe that is why I was slightly dissapointed. I didn't think this was a bad book per se, but it was a little painful toward the end for me b/c it felt like the same thing over and over. I have been to a few of the countries they drove through, so it was nice to read about their adventures and feel a been there done that feeling. It is not as funny for me as it was for the others. I can't say this is one I would urge a friend to read.

.S is for Sunshine: A Florida Alphabet
City Travel Guides > Books > North America
by: Carol Crane, Carol Crane, Michael Monroe

October 01, 2000
I bought this for my grandchildren, and really enjoyed reading it myself. Each page is in two parts -- the inside 2/3 of each page has words unique to Florida with beautiful illustrations for each letter of the alphabet, written in larger print and in language children can understand. The outside 1/3 of each page has smaller print and goes into detail about the words and pictures, expanding knowledge for curious children and adults. I highly recommend this book!

.Touring the Western North Carolina Backroads (Touring the Backroads)
City Travel Guides > Books > North America
by: Carolyn Sakowski

1995-12
I was introduced to this book by a friend and ended up buying the whole series! If you want to know more about western NC and spend your days enjoying a well written dialog that accurately directs you to place the other guides don't even mention, Buy this book. If you want a restaurant guide look elsewhere. I can wholeheartedly recommend the entire series from this publisher. Similar to the "off the beaten path" series only better, written by life long residents that obviously love their home state!
