Vacation Towns of California

Rating:
Summary: Worthwhile travel guide
Review: On my first trip to America, I rented a car to travel from San Fran Cisco to Los Angeles. I had heard that the coastal scenery was great but didn't know anything about the towns. This book was great for detailing the towns worth visiting and their particular appeal. We spent hours in Carmel browsing the galleries, wandering the pretty, 'old-english-style' streets and visited the monastery. The spanish style architecture in California was also fascinating and the book provided many of the more popular options such as San Luis Osbipo. The book captured the flavor of the towns we decided to visit, gave clear outlines of all worthwhile tourist attractions nearby and also gave information on best access route. Helpful for tourists unfamiliar with the States. All in all, as good as any travel book I have used.
