Alex Nutt, former president of SORBA (Southern Off Road Bicycle Association), does a fantastic job of listing the best rides in North Georgia. The book includes very accurate directions, maps, and photos of the trails. This is the best trail book I have seen for Georgia. As former president of SORBA, Alex knows the trails better than almost anyone in the area.

I've owned and utlized this 'guide' for approximatly two years. We reside in the Atlanta area and are avid mountain bikers and cyclists. This guide is essential for trail markers, ride routes and cool treks off the beaten path. The book is small enough to tuck away in your camelback and use while riding! FANTASTIC! I would highly recommend if you are looking for trails in Georgia...

First off, make note that neither of the other two 5 star reviews (at the time of this writing) are actually for this book. The book doesn't rate the different camp grounds and contains little information that would help you in deciding which ones to visit. For each campground, the author provides information, including directions to the campground, the number of RV and tents sites, the cost, and a brief paragraph giving the highlights of the campground (mostly descriptions of activities available rather than characteristics of the camp sites themselves). I doubt that there's more information here than you could find on Georgia's Parks website.

Get "The Best in Tent Camping - Georgia" instead. Although I don't completely agree with all of the author's rating of the campgrounds that I've visited so far, it's far better book. It's clear that the author of the latter has at least visited the campgrounds being described. It's not clear that's the case with "Camping Georgia".
