1. This is THE book to take to New York. It is accurate, readable, amusing, and fits in your purse. The reviews of where to eat and where to stay may not let you do NYC on $80.00, but they certainly help prioritize where to put your dollar down, and what to expect back. The division of the book into individual areas of the city is most helpful, and the frequent small maps in the book are so much easier than dragging out the big map (which is included). I've made two trips to the city with my teenage daughters, and this book was my Bible and my security blanket. Great research, well organized, and fun to read.

1. What I love about the Frommer's Guide books is that they are opinionated--and, I generally find, I agree with their opinions. They tell you what's hot and what's not. I lived in New York City for years ('70s-80s). I return for regular visits and I find that the best things remain year after year in New York, but it is really hard to keep up with the BEST of what is NEW. So, I looked at this guide to see what it said about some of my favs and found they were the Frommer's guides favorites, too. Sometimes, our hesitations about a hotel or museum matched, also. This makes me trust their recommendations on the new restaurants, shops and 'after dark' recommendations. One of the features that I find most useful is a list of "Frommer's Favorite New York City Experiences", "Best Hotel Bets," "Best Dining Bets" and so on. These range from free (Star Gazing at Grand Central Station) to extreme (The best hotels for New Year's Eve). This book also tells you how to obtain passes to save money and/or time for transportation and museums. I have always found the phone numbers, opening/closing times, and approximate costs to be accurate. It has a good detachable map in the back and easy-to-read area maps throughout. The book has great sections on neighborhoods, so if I don't want to carry the whole thing while I'm touring, I just tear out that section. So, I'm thrilled to be off--for a jam packed week. Only one guide needed. This one. (I don't know why the ad copy says 'hardback.' The cover is a sturdy paper back).

1. This is the best description of Coney Island that I've ever seen. It's historical and yet current. The maps and information are so interesting and it has great pictures. The walking tour is very clearly described. I lived in Coney Island for years but I never really knew the history of it. I think it's a marvelous reference item for anyone. Obviously it was written by someone with a love and a lot of knowledge of Coney Island.



2. This walking tour has so much information that I never knew. It's nice and convenient and I've really enjoyed it a lot. I've seen books on Coney Island but none of them have as much information as this little walking tour.
