5.0 out of 5 stars Our #1 for Oregon Collecting (and fun to read too!), July 26, 2009
By A. Pogue (Small Town Oregon) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
We've used GToO for years now and are very happy with this new edition. Index & TOC are well written so the book's easy to use. Five appendices have detailed extra info, web links to some outstanding websites, and clear-to-the-layperson detail on the legalities of what can and cannot be collected which I highly recommend for novice collectors.
As someone mentioned, directions can be a bit vague but don't let that stop you - we've always found the sites. In previous editions there was some headscratching and backtracking to find the sites, but author Romaine has added GPS coordinates & better maps, making it much easier.
We don't leave on a collecting trip without this in our gear.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad for a general guide.
I used this book when I went to Madras this year and it helped with my side trips, but it doesn't give a lot of new info. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars A little disappointed
The directions in this book are way to vague. We found ourselves quite lost a number of times and there was a street that wasn't in existence. Read more
