This review is from: Hidden Montana (1997) (Paperback)

Braeking the state up into sections, the author does an excellent job of describing and presenting the various highlights of each. Equal treatment is given to popular and off-the-beaten-path areas, with sufficient detail for each. It made my recent visit more enjoyable!

This review is from: Hidden Montana: Including Missoula, Helena, Bozeman, and Glacier and Yellowstone National Parks (Paperback)

This book was a wonderful guide to the areas of Montana we traveled through. There were several things we would not have seen if it hadn't been for the suggestions in the book and some excellent restaurants we wouldn't have stopped at if they had not been recommended by the book. We plan to get another "hidden" book for our next trip.

This review is from: Hidden Montana: Including Missoula, Helena, Bozeman, and Glacier and Yellowstone National Parks (Paperback)

Many of the "hidden" highlights of this book are really not so hidden---that is to say, they are bread and breakfast inns and restaurants or museums one would have been likely to find anyway. I was really hoping to find more hidden wildlife sights, trails and fishing spots or scenic views not generally covered in all the other tourist resources.

The book provides a descent list of places to visit, don't get me wrong. There are lots of exciting adventures available in Montana, and this volume covers many.

But I really expended the book to unearth more "hidden" gems than it in fact does. While overall a good book, and worth its price, this travel guide does not entirely live up to the expectation created by the series title.
