Frommer's Portable Guides are for the short-term traveler who insists on value and doesn't want to pack a full-size guidebook. The Portables have the same commitment to accuracy and detail as the Frommer's Complete Guides, with the same broad demographic appeal, from budget to deluxe. Frommer's Portable Dominican Republic combines complete information for the island in one easy-to-carry guide. We currently publish a complete guide to Frommer's Caribbean that includes coverage of the Dominican Republic. This new portable guide will be geared toward travelers visiting only the Dominican Republic and will feature more detailed information on the island than is found in Frommer's Caribbean.

The Frommer's Dominican Republic guide is a good guide for anyone making a quick trip to the DR. The book does overexaggerates on the crime issue. Crime in the DR is relatively low, maybe even lower than in the USA. Other than that, the book is excellent.
