Rebecca Poole Foree has written a guide to northern California from the Cascades to Lake Tahoe to Berkeley to Big Sur that is ideal not only for the budget traveler but for any traveler with good taste and common sense. The descriptions of all areas are not only budget conscious but perceptive and share the author's personal reflexions about what is of interest in each area. I finally put all the other tour books aside while visiting the area and used the insight and advise of Ms. Foreeexclusively. For the discerning traveler, this guide is the best! Unfortunately, the title implies that only accommadations are included. Perhaps in the future edition( I hope there is one), a title change would give the traveler a clearer sense of the richness of this travel guide. Also, for the budget conscious, The San Francisco Residence Club, 85l California St., (at the top of Nob Hill) is a wonderful place to stay while in San Francisco.
