You'll never fall into the tourist traps when you travel with Frommer's. It's like having a friend show you around, taking you to the places locals like best. Our expert authors have already gone everywhere you might go--they've done the legwork for you, and they're not afraid to tell it like it is, saving you time and money.

Every Frommer's Travel Guide is up-to-date, with exact prices for everything, dozens of color maps, and exciting coverage of sports, shopping, and nightlife. You'd be lost without us!

About the Author

A Denver-based freelance writer, Eric Peterson has contributed to numerous Frommer’s guides covering the American West and written Frommer’s Montana & Wyoming, Frommer’s Yellowstone & Grand Teton National Parks, and Ramble: A Field Guide to the U.S.A. (www.speckpress.com). Peterson also writes about travel and other topics for such publications as ColoradoBiz, United Hemispheres, Delta Sky, and the New York Daily News. In his free time, he’s an avid camper and hiker, a lifelong Broncos fan, and part-time rock star (at least in the eyes of his niece Olivia).

Residents of northern New Mexico since 1970, Don and Barbara Laine have traveled extensively throughout the Rocky Mountains and the Southwest, spending as much time as possible in the outdoors, and especially in the region’s national parks and monuments. They have written Frommer’s guides to Utah, Colorado, and the National Parks of the American West. The Laines have also authored Little-Known Southwest, New Mexico & Arizona State Parks, and Best Short Hikes in Arizona for The Mountaineers, and The New Mexico Guide for Fulcrum Publishing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great guide to Denver and enviros, October 10, 2007
This review is from: Frommer's Denver, Boulder & Colorado Springs (Frommer's Complete Guides) (Paperback)
I've now been to Denver twice and found this book to be a great resource. Their itineraries are really helpful, and the maps and write ups are right on.

3.0 out of 5 stars Wine country lite, September 25, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This book is very limited in the number and types of wineries it reviewed. It is good for the first timer but disappointing for anyone looking for new insight or advice into the Napa and Sonoma wine regions.
