This book isn't light, but it's a lot lighter than carrying six books (one for each state) in the region. I purchased it because it had all of the information I was looking for in a travel guide book, and that info was accurate and up-to-date! I like that the big cities get lots of attention--New Orleans is 35 pages all on it's own--but the small towns are mentioned too. My only regret with this book is that there aren't enough maps (but the ones that are included are useful).
