3 comments about Frommer's Cancun, Cozumel & the Yucatan 2000.

1. This is an excellent guide to the Yucatan region, from hotels to ruins, it is well written and informative. We plan a vacation to the area this year and this book will be with me at all times! This book is a better value than a private tour guide. Tips on everything we will need to know, good and bad, are in this book.



2. Just back from the Yucatan and found this guide very helpful. easy to read and the descriptions of the food and lodging were reliable.

   I also recommend: "A Tourist in the Yucatan" a thriller/adventure. A good read while you are soaking rays on the beach!




3. Basically the book was great. However, I had my map to the area stolen. And would like to purchase or receive another. I am planning another trip to cancun in late march 2001. This time we are going to drive on our own, and i think that map is invaluable.

2 comments about Route 66 Chronicles: Volume I Shadows of the Past Over Route 66 Arizona - New Mexico (Route 66 Chronicles).

1. I just finished Route 66 Chronicles and found the book to be a wonderful collection of stories that take the reader to a new level of understanding and appreciation of the "Mother Road". Unlike many of its predecessors, Chronicles vividly reveals the human side of the small towns and people who grew up along this famous hiway. The author's insight into the character and soul of the "Old West" in the 1930's and 1940's, brings us back to a special time in American history. The next time I drive from Los Angeles to Chicago, I'll have a deeper appreciation of what lies beyond the red mesas and little trading posts.



2. After reading this book, and being an old Route 66 fan, I was left with a rather hollow feeling. Upon completion, I realized I had just finished a nice, rather first person account of times loosely happening in the general area of Route 66 in Arizona and, somewhat, New Mexico. But, as a Route 66 book, it was lacking in content, and connection, to the road.
   Perhaps a marketing ploy, the book itself is more a recounting of the authors personal experiences and related stories. Most focus on Native Americans, others on western folklore.
   If your a fan of such work, then I'd recommend the book. If, like me, your a Route 66 fan, it's better to pass.
