I have to say I was a little disappointed in this book. When I think of places that I absolutely must see, fancy hotels and expensive restaurants do not top my list. Having said that, though, there are still many places in this book that I did not know about and are now on my personal list of "must-see". I still feel that there are a lot of places that I am going to have to find out about elsewhere, but I'm sure there are people out there who would be glad to have the hotel and restaurant information as well.

The author seemed to avoid the problem she had in her other "1000 Places...", of too many hotels, but I was annoyed by how many entries there were for scenic mountain ranges and artsy towns. There were plenty of interesting listings, but I didn't enjoy this one as much as the first one. Also, American listings take up 91% of the book (really, I have them in a spreadsheet), which seems way out of proportion. ( )

The book is not easy to read. I realize that it is a thick book, but I wish there were more places listed in each state.It is a place to begin. ( )
