.Virginia Atlas & Gazetteer (Virginia Atlas & Gazeteer)
City Travel Guides > Books > United States
from: DeLorme Publishing

November 01, 2005
This is the best Atlas/Gazetteer I've found around at least for the areas I travel and can vouch for the details. It's a great resource for those times when you need to get off the main roads and see where the back roads take you. This map has a lot of the small details that I was looking for, trail heads, boat ramps, camp grounds, wineries, ferries, waterfalls, etc. The topo lines are pretty easy to read and elevations are well marked for this style of map. It's also pretty easy to cross reference to your GPS unit.

What this map lacks are the details you need for in-town travel, and that includes downtown in the small towns. When the roads get too tight you're gonna need a different map because this one only has one size (1:150k or ... Read More:

.Best Hikes With Dogs: Southern California (Best Hikes With Dogs)
City Travel Guides > Books > United States
by: Allen Riedel

2006-09
So you live in Southern California and want to take your dog for a good walk in the out of doors. Where do you go? This is a problem that came up for me when my relatives from out of state visited and naively assumed they could take a dog pretty much anywhere. There are so many restrictions on dogs in this state that it can be downright daunting to take your four legged friend on vacation with you. Happily, you can find dozens of wonderful hikes in Allen Reidel's new book. You and your pooch are more than welcome on all of them.

Not surprisingly, this book does list some of the "dog beaches" where you can actually walk with your pet (unlike the remaining 99% of the coast), but the thrust of this book describes the many wonderful hikes ... Read More:

.Scenic Driving Utah, 2nd (Scenic Driving Series)
City Travel Guides > Books > United States
by: Christy Karras

May 01, 2005
We just took a motorcycle trip through parts of Utah, with this book in our saddlebags. It was excellent with ideas, maps, town and even historical descriptions. We only wish we had purchased it a couple of months earlier for our Southern Utah trip. But it has us excited to take future trips in Utah.

.Vermont Atlas & Gazetteer, Twelfth Edition
City Travel Guides > Books > United States
from: DeLorme Publishing

August 01, 2003
Vermont is a beautiful state and most of that beauty is best seen from the back roads (often unpaved) that lead over mountain and to villages. The Delorme Atlas and Gazetteer is standard equipment when I travel by car. I keep one in my truck for when in my home state of Tennessee and always get one when traveling to explore a place I have never been. I read maps well and teach map and compass use. This book is essential to finding your way around. Buy it

.Frommer's Portable Charleston (Frommer's Portable)
City Travel Guides > Books > United States
by: Darwin Porter, Danforth Prince

April 23, 2007
We've used the comparable Fodor's guides before and found them immensely helpful. In comparison, the Frommer's is dry, wordy, and not that helpful. Maps are small and difficult to read, and reviews are lengthy yet not particularly helpful. This book would probably be much better as a pre-visit read to get a sense of Charleston than a pocket guide for your trip.
