1000 Places to See in the U.S.A. & Canada Before You Die
Now, shipping in time for the tens of millions of travelers heading out for summer trips, comes 1,000 Places to See in the U.S.A. & Canada Before You Die. Sail the Maine Windjammers out of Camden. Explore the gold-mining trails in Alaska's Denali wilderness. Collect exotic shells on the beaches of Captiva. Take a barbecue tour of Kansas City—from Arthur Bryant's to Gates to B.B.'s Lawnside to Danny Edward's to LC's to Snead's. There's the ice hotel in Quebec, the Great Stalacpipe Organ in Virginia, cowboy poetry readings, what to do in Lexington after the Derby's over, and for every city, dozens of unexpected suggestions and essential destinations.
The book is organized by region, and subject-specific indices in the back sort the book by interest—wilderness, great dining, best beaches, world-class museums, sports and adventures, road trips, and more. There's also an index that breaks out the best destinations for families with children. Following each entry is the nuts and bolts: addresses, websites, phone numbers, costs, best times to visit.

eh.
Cool idea. Quite fun to use actually. The only thing is that anyone can find the cool tourist things to do in any given place online. I just wish it had more off the beaten path places in it.

Great book, some minor errors though
This is a great book. Lots of fun to browse and plan trips for the next 100 years or so! A couple of minor complaints, though. I live in Grand Teton National Park and went to check it out. Much to my surprise, one of the other major mountains...

Keep it in your glove box
I wish this book was in my glove box on my 50-state road trip, when trying to figure out, on my own, what to see in each new state.

A must have for someone going on a road trip
I read all the reviews after I had ordered the book so it was with some trepidation that I sat down to page through it. 4 hours later I was tempted to grab my car keys and head out the door on the road trip of a lifetime. Even if you aren't...

1000 Places to Eat Before You Die
Let me get my chief complaints out of the way first: this author loves to eat. It sometimes seems that every other entry is a restaurant or local culinary hot-spot, from "Cheese Country" to "Big Pig Jig." These are not destinations, they're...
