 Carry this "Bible" with you if you relocate to NYC!!! May 7, 2010
Terri L. Worrell (Deltona, Florida)
My daughter recently relocated to Brooklyn, NY. I gave this book to her as a gift and she thanks me quite often for it. It has a map of the subway system that opens up from the last page and she said it has helped her soooo much. She carries it with her everywhere she goes in the city and said it is one of the best gifts she has ever received. She said she would recommend it to anyone who is moving to a big city. They have copies for different cities across the U.S.

Just bought the 2010 Guide. Lots of great detailed information. I also appreciate that they steer you away from overrated locations. HOWEVER, the paperback guide in like pt. 5 font. I'm sitting here reading it with a magnifying glass (not easy). For $17, don't we deserve a little more paper?

I sent this as a gift to people who had just moved to New York City. Thay said it was in good repair, and looked like something they would use.
 Great information, but hard to read December 21, 2009

In terms of information about NYC...restaurants, places to visit, transit options, parks, nightlife, etc. this little book is great. They are able to cram in more useful information about NYC than most other guidebooks I've seen. It's very comprehensive too since it includes the outer boroughs besides Manhattan. In many ways, it's all you need to carry with you while you're in NYC. The maps are terrific and nicely detailed with pertinent information. One big negative is that the information is very, very difficult to read. You need a magnifying glass to be able to read the information; the typeface is much too tiny. I think the same information with larger typeface would make this book the #1 book to have when traveling/living in NYC.
