Book Reviews of National Geographic's Guide to Small Town Escapes

Book Review: A great guide to take on a road trip
Summary: 5 Stars

This was one of our "most valuable" books when we took our year long adventure around the USA. The towns they describe are really worth exploring -- they are the way towns used to be in this country. We came back from our adventure and wrote "Live Your Road Trip Dream" to help other road trippers actually get move from the dreaming to the doing for their trip of a lifetime.

Summary of National Geographic's Guide to Small Town Escapes

America's most enticing small towns promise idyllic getaways in places that time forgot -- from colonial villages to Old West towns to sunny pueblos to salt-sprayed fishing hamlets.

  • Plan the perfect escape in 77 of America's best small towns, where you can visit antique shops or museums, take a hike, go birding, savor local cuisine, sleep on a feather bed, or simply rock away the afternoon on a breezy veranda.
  • Descriptive essays by National Geographic travel writers capture the essence of each town.
  • Detailed practical information highlights inns and B&Bs, restaurants, annual events, and must-see local and nearby sights.
  • Brilliant color photos show off the towns' unique qualities, and easy-to-use, full-color maps make finding these special places easy.
