Synopsis
The most comprehensive state-by-state guide available looks at every corner of the US, from the craggy shores of Maine to the anything-goes playground of Florida's Key West, from the volcanoes of Hawaii's Big Island to the wildlife of Alaska, and everything of interest in between. Our Rough Guide to the USA includes detailed listings of tons of hotels, restaurants, roadside attractions and historical monuments, everything you need for the ultimate roadtrip.

Review
A remarkably complete -- and compact -- travel guide to the entire United States. I scrutinized pages for two cities I know intimately (New Haven, CT, and Seattle, WA) and one I just visited (Palm Springs, CA) and can honestly say that this book does a very good job of capturing the essential feeling of each place, and of describing the high and low points of each locale. As is inevitable for such a copious compendium, there are entries for establishments that have gone out of business (The Unicorn and Costermonger), or entries I wished they had included (The Museum of Toasters). But on the whole, it's hard to imagine a more comprehensive and useful volume for the perennially peripatetic US traveler. Two suitcases up, up, and away!
