 Too Much Information August 7, 2009
C. Hays (Louisiana, USA)
I purchased this book and the Boston Frommer's 2009. In summary, they each had too much information, presented in cluttered manner. After gleaning through these books for weeks, I still had not come up with a suitable itinerary for our trip. One day before leaving for Boston, I visited a neighbor who recently returned from Boston and borrowed her copy of Boston For Dummies (Dummies Travel). Well, this was the book for this dummy!!!! We carried it the entire trip and left the other two at home. It was presented in the most simple and conscise manner and had very easy to follow and practical sample itineraries. Skip the other two, get the "dummies" book.
 If you purchased the new england guide, don't purchase this one August 5, 2007

I purchased this guide and the new england guide as a package deal from Amazon.
This was a mistake since the boston chapter in the new england book gives the same info as this one.
aside from this, the book is great as any of the Eyewitness books I purchased so far.

As with all Eyewitness Travel Guides - you can't do better. Great breakdowns by area, highlights of top tourist places and lots of other items of interest, also a great brief history. The book brought out lots of special interest info that the guides didn't even talk about.
A wonderful place to visit and a wonderful book to use December 16, 2006

I spent a week in Boston and this book was great in helping me plan that trip. It offers lots of suggestions by region of the city which was a great way to plan. The restaurant recommendations were excellent and it is always fun to see what they recommend as the regional dishes. For those looking to soak up the history, culture and fun of Boston this is a great book to use in planning that trip.
 Great for pictures, but light on other details December 16, 2006
B. Hatch (USA)
Used this book for a 2 day trip. I like the pictures and images and history, but it's a bit light on other things. It didn't do as good of a job helping to prioritize. I'd buy them again, but only as a supplement to other bigger guides, not as my primary.
