5.0 out of 5 stars The Best New Hampshire Guidebook, June 29, 2008

By	A. Duncan (Concord, NH USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: New Hampshire: An Explorer's Guide, Sixth Edition (Paperback)

This guidebook is wonderful in showing the many personalities of New Hampshire. With over 500 pages on our Granite State, it reveals the little-known gems that abound here. I checked out a copy from our library recently to explore southwestern New Hampshire, and it was so useful I am ordering a copy. It has excellent in-depth descriptions of inns, B&Bs and restaurants, as well as full descriptions of outdoor recreation opportunities. The writing is crisp and informative, and there are numerous photos. Maps are not plentiful, but the maps that are included are helpful. Recommended for residents as well as adventurous travelers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Didn't steer me wrong, August 18, 2006

By	Paulette Baker "Oz Music Fan" (East Lyme, CT USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: New Hampshire: An Explorer's Guide, Sixth Edition (Paperback)

The Explorer's Guide series provides in-depth travel information you can actually use, and the New Hampshire entry is no exception. Eating in good--not necessarily expensive--restaurants is a favorite part of my travel experience, and the authors' restaurant suggestions in the Lincoln/Woodstock area didn't steer me wrong.
