Summary: Best guide ever
Review: The DK Eyewitness travel guides are really great: very lively and colorful, lots of pictures, easy to read, useful information, a lot of original drawings to describe best the must-see monuments, etc.
This travel guide covers all 50 states, and is quite comprehensive for major cities such as NY, DC, Philly, Boston, Frisco, LA, etc. It has also a good coverage of smaller cities, but don't expect to have all the details. They just tell you what's really interesting to see. Listing of good restaurants/hotels/hostels at the end of each chapter.
Good for those who want to spend only one day in these cities.
Only problem: For each attraction they tell you if there is an admission fee, but not the amount.
But this travel guide is really fun to read, and it proved to be very useful when I visited major U.S. cities.

Summary: THE GREATEST TRAVEL GUIDE BOOKS SERIES EVER
Review: The first time I saw a DK travel guide on a book shop I'w dazzled and amazed. Never before had I read so many information inside a single guide. Then I started purchasing other titles on the series: St. Petesburg, South Africa, Germany, Mexico, Florida, Greek Islands, Japan etc etc etc and now I've got more than 15 titles on the shelf. The DK guides are fully illustrated, with astonishing cutaways and useful information about every detail of a trip: from places to stay and eat to places to shop and currency and transportation. I also recommend the titles EUROPE, USA, GERMANY, SPAIN and so on, dedicated to a continent or a country. They're not as complete as the ones written to a single city, but surely they bring you enough information not to get lost anywhere. It's a must buy.
