Customer Reviews

Excellent and informative

We pretty much skipped using the Frommer's guide because the tips from this book were more interesting and more our speed. The author led us to the Frisco ghost town and told the history of the town that the roadside plaque didn't cover. The book is well-written and filled with information to keep you in touch with the true feeling of the state.

Great way to see the best of Utah in a non-tourist fashion.

This book caught my eye as I was browsing through travel guides in preparation for my week-long trip through Arizona and Utah. Tired of fighting hordes of tourists from every corner of the globe, I wanted to get the flavor and feel of that part of the country without being hassled by the mobs. Every place I went, from the quirky hotels in Moab to the awe-inspiring day-long treks through Canyonlands, was inspired by the guide. Brewer has a keen eye for the off-kilter, and I hope to follow his slightly beaten path in other parts of the country as well.
