Dusty trails,
By nadine granoff (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fodor's Arizona 2001: Completely Updated Every Year, Color Photos and Pull-Out Map, Smart Travel Tips from A to Z (Fodor's Gold Guides) (Paperback)
Like a cheerful, well-mannered hotel concierege, this book provides sound, mostly accurate, but impersonal, information. And like all other Fodor guides, it's organized in a logical, formulaic, and generic fashion.It's really several guidebooks in one. The first is a splashy, saturated color, quasi-National Geographic booklet for the attention-deficit reader. The second, meatier section, has quiet prose, lots of lists, gray, incomprehensible maps. The final section--Background and Essentials--is the most thoughtful and complex. You can really sink your teeth into the first two essays in this chapter covering the geography, geology, climate, and anthropology of the region. The small Rand McNally map is ok, and will probably be perfectly adequate for a short trip. |
