4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting and informative, August 25, 1999
An ideal book for those intending to visit South Dakota. As well as giving places to visit and stay it provides an interesting insight into the history of the state. A few more photographs would be even better.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not a guidebook, September 4, 2004
Those factoids and stats you're going to bore your friends with when you get home ... you can find them here. What I didn't find was answers to questions, such as: Where are good places to camp? What do I do to enjoy my trip to the reservation, or a powwow? Where are the best places to eat in Hot Springs? That is, things I wanted to know to enjoy the trip.

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than I thought, February 14, 2002
By Angela M. Gasper (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
At first , I didn't think this book was of much help in planning my trip but the more I read it, the more great information I found. I would advise you to read it like a novel and not just skim through it looking for specific information.
