Rating:  Summary: Good, but not Great. Needs more detail/info Review: I bought this map/book because I was looking for a detailed map of the city. It's a good map of downtown , but it doesn't get down to complete street level, and it cuts off a good part of the outlying neighborhoods that Chicago encompasses. If you're going to make a map of Chicago, you should really include the whole thing. Let's Go, Inc. cuts off parts of wicker park, ukrainian village, and logan square, and parts of the north side. It concentrates too much on the near downtown area, and forgets about some worthwhile neighborhoods that people might want to visit or look for homes in.
Rating:  Summary: A pocket guide that won't make you look like a tourist! Review: I like this pocket guide because it folds easily, won't rip after staying in your back pocket during the long El ride from Downtown to O'Hare, and is small enough to hide for those times when you want to blend in like a Chicagoan.The catch is, it's more of a handy map than a traveller's guidebook. I wish the maps had scales (guides to indicate, for example, that 1 inch equals a mile). Other than that, I'm happy with the book.
