5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive and Concise, 4 Feb 2003

By A Customer

Having read a couple of other guide books on NY, I have to say that is by someway the best. It gives the reader a comprehensive guide to all of this fantastic cities facets from the equally diverse communities and architecture to its infamous sights to those less famous corners. Add to this a superb selection of maps to the cities many districts and a guide to the surrounding areas, you have an excellent reference to those contemplating a visit to New York for the first time, or those returning, who haven't yet experienced all that 24hr city has to offer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Third time in Manhattan first time with the book., 23 Jan 2004

By A Customer

This was the third time i'd been in NYC but the first time with a guide book.I've managed to see and do more in two days using this book than I covered in the previous visits lasting three days each.
Buy this at least a week before your visit and plan what to see and where to go using the SUBWAY to avoid the seemingly unending trek from Central Park through to Fort Clinton.You'll be able to fit in all of those "must see" sights without requiring the services of either a chiropodist or an emergency room attendant.
Be aware of the extra security requirements in force for most public entry attractions i.e.an average of two hours queue for the Liberty Island Ferry and no access to the Lady herself.
Great book , great people and great city , Enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Would have been lost without it., 27 Aug 2003

By	"wesmoore" - See all my reviews

I worked in New York for 6 months and needed a guide to get me around town and to find everything New York had to offer. The Lonely Planet guide was awesome, giving just enough information to see me through without overdoing it. The guide has some great walks that are definitely worth doing and the Subway map at the back come's in handy so often. It will tell you where to shop, eat, drink, sleep, take in the sights and get you home from all five everytime. The only guide to buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable, and interestingly amusing
NYC is a bit of a scary place to get around, but this book helped enormously - from using the subway to knowing where to go, it was invaluable. Read more
