An idispensable guide
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is a superb guide and indispensable if you live in the area or plan to visit. The history and lore of each area is wonderfully brought out which entices one to explore further. Indeed, this book is as much a history as travel guide. Which is not to say it lacks anything as a straight-forward travel directory. The maps are useful and well drawn. The directions and road guides are carefully constructed with day itinerary's and helpful suggestions. Cautions such as advising against walking tours in marsh areas during hunting season, for example, are especially useful. I can't imagine a better wrought guide and, for the record, I have no connection with the author or publisher.
