A superb travel tool
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
We bought this book and read through most of it prior to our trip. The clear photography and spirited writing style made it much easier to decide what we had to cram into our four-day mini-vacation, and what we would have to leave for another time. The illustrations are beautiful, but the text gave background information, as well as the basic stuff of prices, hours, transportation. I also carried it with me as we traveled around the city; it is small enough to fit in a purse or small backpack. I feel that this book contributed to our successful, enjoyable trip. Note: If you are going to the Boston area, be sure the eat at one of the "Legal Seafood" restaurants there. It is a local chain, and something of a landmark. The food and service are excellent.
Updated and Beautifully Crafted Book on a New England City
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I reside in New England and this is another of my favorite books from this region of the country. DK has always published quality books in their Eyewitness Travel Guides and they have done an excellent job with this volume on Boston. It is very current and up-to-date. Unless you visit Boston on a frequent basis it is easy to get disoriented. I really found this book quite useful and the colorful layout of this book with maps, illustrations, photographs and text really inspired me to delve into its pages and check out one of New England's premier cities. The historical information on Boston was invaluable. I never realized some of the things I used to walk past. I think it is also very informative, not only from a historical perspective, but also as a point of reference for sightseeing, travel and enjoyment. DK did an outstanding job with this invaluable edition.

Great guide book, extremely well laid out
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
The Eyewitness Travel Guide to Boston was recommended to me in a bookstore and it was perfect for a recent 5-day trip to Boston. The guide is laid out by area, so you really get a feel for what else is around you when you are at a particular destination. The overall maps are very good and well detailed and the book is chock full of great photos. It also includes great history and background info. My Boston friend kept asking me "how do you know all this stuff?"
Great for planning
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This Eyewithness book is up-to-date and very practical. It contains a lot of pictures which is extremely usefull if you are planning a trip. When planning the trip it makes the book in a way easier to use than for example the Lonely Planet of Boston since you got a clear picture of the surroundings.
