Hostels Ireland
Paul Karr has done his homework and he receives an A+ for the information in his Hostels Ireland book. My wife and I spent 7 weeks treking Ireland summer '99 and found his book to be invaluable. The information was clear, concise and accurate. Things change and so do hostels and some hostels he recommended we liked better than others. But we did not stay any where we disliked or felt the ...

Lovely Northern New England
Frommer's guidebook provides an excellent overview of the sights to see, things to do, and places to stay in the three Northern New England states of New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine. The overviews are very accurate and provide a good description of the places, making the book an excellent way to decide where to go in the areas, and a good guidebook once you arrive. The biggest problem with the ...

A Disappointment...
very limited information about Nova Scotia. I have used many guide books in the past and this one was a real disappointment ! In some regards actually found the AAA guide to be more useful,,,

Frommers, 2008

This book covers all the major cities!!
Vancouver's hip gallery, dining, and nightlife scenes; the art museums and architectural highlights of Toronto; Calgary's wild and woolly Stampede; and Montréal's charming French bistros and cafes. I learned all about Canada's great outdoors, from hiking in the national parks to biking its lovely backroads. It even pointed out the best places to spot puffins, whales, polar bears, moose, elk, and ...

Before Friends Visit Maine
I live on the coast of Maine and have many requests from friends to visit during the summer and fall. I always send this book out before my friends arrive so that they can see everything the Maine coast has to offer and so that I can adequately make a plan for them to see the things that matter most to them. It is an invaluable guide and it "spot on" with descriptions.

Frommers, 2008

A travel guide for readers
Let's face it; most travel books are a glance-and-go proposition. Most of them do a passable job providing key information, but they aren't exactly a pleasure to read. Frommer's New England 2003 changes all that. Not only are the cititations clear, correct, and complete, many of them are laugh-out-loud funny or wickedly sly. At the end of a busy day on the road, I actually found myself reading ...

fantastic!
This book helped me in my travels around Europe this year so much that I can hardly express my thanks. They gave great inside information, and helped me to save some much needed money, while still allowing me to have one of the best times of my life. A wonderful book, I'd recomend it for anyone who will be traveling in Europe and doing the hostelling thing. :)

Great little book on the Maine coast
I read a lot of travel books of all sizes, and I've traveled to Maine quite a bit. This little Frommer's guide is the best I've found for those who want an introduction to the Maine coast that they can carry around with them on their trip. On my first trip to Maine, I used it in tandem with a larger, more comprehensive book (Maine: An Explorer's Guide), which I consulted ahead of time and left at ...

A fun and informative book for any "tourist!"
This book was wonderful, as soon as I opened it, I got excited about our family vacation. It has things for kids, adults and every age in between. It references costs, addresses, mileage and the "inside scoop" on nearly every place to visit in Vancouver, B.C. - Fantastic! ...A "Vancouver bible!"

Up to the usual "Insiders Guide Hostels" standard
Most of the hostels in the UK are run by the Hosteling International-Youth Hostel Association. They dont open or close very often so, although the guide is 2004, its not really out of date for smaller towns. But in the big popular cities there are quite a few private hostels. Paul lists some of the private ones but misses some very good ones in the cities. For Manchester he lists the YH but not ...
