Less than Average Book on an Ideal Place,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Insiders' Guide to the Florida Keys and Key West, 11th (Insiders' Guide Series) (Paperback)
This is the 11th edition of this book on all info that is the Florida Keys and the glorious Key West. I have the 10th edition and only out of laziness did not return this one.
I frequent Key West often and many changes that have taken place there at guesthouses or restaurants are not documented in the least. The book is basically a word for word of the last edition. One restaurant moved locations over a year ago and they still have it as listed at the old location. Key West is a beautiful, eccentric place and all walks of life mingle together here in a virtual paradise. It is very liberal and the authors are definitely very conservative. The reviews are definitely written with their bias. As an average overview of restaurants, lodgings, shopping and history the book is ok and I would review it as such but when I know of changes that are very clear if in Key West and they aren't here - then I must reflect the laziness of the author in this review. She supposedly lives in Key West and it seems she only noticed the changes in places she frequents. This book is not an excellent overview for all. There are other and better books. Also, if you have a previous edition then definitely think twice before buying this one. |
