5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific travel book, November 30, 2005

By	Mathilda - See all my reviews

This book was almost as wild as a Mel Brooks movie and just as funny. The pace is very New York - fast and furious. If you don't know anything about New York City, this would be a great start. Okay, so it might take you a minute to catch on, but that's life. It will tell you just as much about the city itself as it will the experiences of a born-and-bred New Yorker.
And how many travel authors give tours of the cities they write about? You couldn't ask for more.

2.0 out of 5 stars Had promise, didn't deliver..., July 13, 2004

By	Limobob (New York City) - See all my reviews

This title had promise when I first saw it. But when I read it, I thought it was written by someone with a severe case of ADD. It jumps around too much and the chapter that promised sex was very weak. At least the cover was inviting.
