Disabled travelers, estimated in this work to include 40 million Americans, are increasingly receiving attention at tourist attractions and in guidebooks both mainstream and market-segmented. Most pub lic libraries should have Helen Hecker's Travel for the Disabled: A Handbook of Travel Resources and 500 Worldwide Access Guides (Twin Peaks Pr., 1992) for starters. Destination-specific guides, of which Smith's is a fine example, should be acquired on a need basis. Smith himself is paraplegic and is thus well aware of the needs of such travelers. His appendix supplies useful sources of information. A useful work that, as the title suggests, can benefit nonhandicapped travelers as well.
