I ordered this volume anticipating that it would be as interesting as it's sister volume "The Most Scenic Drives in America" which I would recomend highly.
"Off the Beaten Track" would be of interest to someone who perhaps hadn't done as much domestic travel as we have. For someone who's looking for a guide for unique sights and items off the beaten track I would recomend "Road Trip USA" by Jamie Jensen as a more valuable and interesting resource in this regard.
It's typical Reader's Digest high quality printing and presentation with just a bit too "plain vanilla" content for this traveler.

This is an excellent travelogue with hundreds of pictures in
full color. The lithography is spectacular. Over 1000 scenic
places are fully described and many are depicted. For instance,
the Ute Indian Museum is shown. The famous Taughanock Falls
State Park of Ithaca is shown in full color. The National Bottle
Museum is shown and fully described. This book would be
excellent for a history or geography project in early or
middle school.

this book is great for people who want a starting point when looking to travel in and around the 50 states. It gives you a brief description of each point of interest, both beautiful and/or historic and a detailed map of the state to help plan a travel route. It is a little big and heavy, but I think worth the look through.

This book is full of priceless information about places you would otherwise never hear about. It is not to be missed.

This book has some really good places to visit if you don't like doing the tourist bit. I plan to take it when we travel and to refer to it wherever we happen to be. The book is has great pictures. I bought a companion to it called, "The Most Scenic Drives in America," which I will use to plan our trips around.

It was a pleasure dealing with this seller.The book is in excellent condition!And what a great reference. Will certainly use this book a lot!

The book is beautifully illustrated. We look forward to using it with every RV trip we make.

Amazing coverage for traveling the backroads for leasure trips for a few days
and places you don't usually hear about.Pictures and maps were great and details of locations were enough to get your intrest.
