This resource made my Kentucky Derby experience all the better. The author definitely knows the places that make his city shine. Where to eat, where to stay, what to do, what to buy - he hits the nail on the head. Had I not bought this guide, I would have completely overlooked the wonderful Victorian neighborhood of Old Louisville, a historic district chock full of spooky old mansions, gracious estates and gaslit alleyways. The author is an expert on all things KENTUCKY and LOUISVILLE and has published a number of books on the area's haunted past and culinary traditions: Splash of Bourbon: Kentucky's Spirit: A Cookbook,Ghosts of Old Louisville: True Stories of Hauntings in America's Largest Victorian Neighborhood,Phantoms of Old Louisville: Ghostly Tales from America's Most Haunted Neighborhood,Haunts of Old Louisville: Gilded Age Ghosts and Haunted Mansions in America's Spookiest Neighborhood, and Adventures in New Kentucky Cooking with The Bluegrass Peasant.

The INSIDERS' GUIDE books are generally a terrific resource for those wanting to cross the Pond and do some exploring. INSIDERS' GUIDE TO LOUISVILLE is no exception. The author is an accomplished food, wine and travel writer who knows how to tout the virtues of his city. Tons of useful tidbits for the perfect places to eat, sleep and sight-see in this under-appreciated city. This was an invaluable resource during my last visit to Kenutcky.

It's high time that a comprehensive travel guide came out for Louisville. The last one was more than ten years ago and this one does a wonderful job of letting insiders and outsiders alike know the must-see spots in this great American city. No one other than seasoned travel, food and wine writer David Domine could have done such a thorough job of touting the town's touristic virtues. Buy the Insiders Guide to Louisville, book your flight here and find out for yourself.

This is the only up to date guide for Kentucky's largest city. David Domine is an expert on all things having to do with Louisville and Kentucky, so he was naturally the person to write this book. Being a food writer and cookbook author, he is able to give special insight into the best and most interesting places to eat.
