Off the Beaten Path by Readers Digest November 20, 2003 Joseph S. Maresca (Bronxville, New York USA) 29 out of 35 found this review helpful
This is an excellent travelogue with hundreds of pictures in full color. The lithography is spectacular. Over 1000 scenic places are fully described and many are depicted. For instance, the Ute Indian Museum is shown. The famous Taughanock Falls State Park of Ithaca is shown in full color. The National Bottle Museum is shown and fully described. This book would be excellent for a history or geography project in early or middle school.

This book is an excellent source for out-of-the-way vacation spots. While most of the sites listed may not be the ultimate destination, these are gret sites to visit along the way. Each state has at least 8-10 places listed so the book gives many good day trip ideas as well. Besides being a travel guide, this book is fun reading. Descriptions of each spot and occasional pictures make this a good cure for cabin fever on a cold winter's night.

Great Book! July 16, 2007 Constance R. Radde (Gold Canyon, AZ) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book has some really good places to visit if you don't like doing the tourist bit. I plan to take it when we travel and to refer to it wherever we happen to be. The book is has great pictures. I bought a companion to it called, "The Most Scenic Drives in America," which I will use to plan our trips around.
