From the Back Cover
Tired of the same old tourist traps? Take the road less traveled and discover the hidden attractions, unique finds, and unusual locales other guidebooks just don't offer. Off the Beaten Path® features the things you'd want to see-if only you knew about them! From the best in local dining to quirky cultural tidbits, you'll say over and over again: "I didn't know that!"
Whether you're a visitor or a local looking for something different, let Pennsylvania Off the Beaten Path show you the Keystone State you never knew existed. Take a ride through historic 1860s boomtowns on the Oil Creek and Titusville Railroad; defy the forces of nature at Gravity Hill; or try to catch a glimpse of the giant hellbender salamanders that reside in French Creek. So if you've "been there, done that" one too many times, get off the main road and venture Off the Beaten Path.

Humor, wit, and travel information,
By
This review is from: Pennsylvania Off the Beaten Path, 8th (Off the Beaten Path Series) (Paperback)
The authors are professional writers and one can tell. They write with great prose, humor and wit. They provide top ten lists of sights in each area they cover. They seem to like wine, Catholic sites, and animals/nature in particular. If one is pick a travel book of PA, this would be a good place to start, and if nothing else, it makes a good read.
