Title: Useless
Product review: This book is useless. As a faithful Frommer's fan, I was deeply disappointed. Probably because it tried to cover too large a region, it ended up not giving decent coverage to any region.It seems to me that this book is a compilation of Frommer's already existing city and regional guides, except less complete, with one or two sketchy description of the areas in between. This is useless for anyone planning a car trip where pleasant meanderings and stops are the highlights. For example, after 26 pages on New York City, which would have been covered far better in Frommer's New York City guide, there were 3 pages on the Hudson River Valley, 3 pages on the Andironacks, one page on Niagara Falls and just a few lines over one page on the Finger Lakes area, where only Corning was named as a destination!For a car trip exploring the different states, I found the Moon series of travel guides far more helpful. I frankly can't think of what kind of trip this USA guide would be good for.
