Customer Reviews
I bought this for my father because he is planning a cross country trip and I thought this would be a good resource for him. He said he loves it and has gotten a lot of ideas of where to go with this.

We had purchased the other book out about the 1000 places to see that feature all countries, but so glad we now have a resource for the US. With all that goes on in the world, traveling throughout the US just helps our economy, teaches us more about our own country and is much safer! I always knew there were great places to see and now I have them all in one book. I hope they make a comprehensive sections in detail for the midwest sometime! We live in a beautiful spot in Michigan's Upper Peninsula!
