Tvacations: A Fun Guide to the Sites, the Stars, and the Inside Stories Behind Your Favorite TV Shows

A television fan's travel guide identifies the favorite addresses, counties, and cities, both real and fictitious, of such popular television shows as Happy Days, Cheers, Bonanza, Baywatch, and Coach. Original.

Have you ever wanted to center your vacation around a favorite television program? From visiting Mary Richards's apartment on The Mary Tyler Moore Show to walking down the streets of Riverside, Iowa, Captain Kirk's future hometown, travel writer Golden tells how to visit the real-life settings of America's favorite programs. In addition to background information about each program, the author lists parks, museums, restaurants, and retail businesses related to each program. However, the book does not contain much unusual information that cannot be located in other travel guides or television trivia books. And while there is a table of contents arranged geographically for locating favorite shows, the book is not indexed. Not recommended.?Katherine Ellerton, Missouri Research & Education Network, Columbia
