Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My First Choice
Review: While on the road (Las Vegas, Arizona and New Mexico) I reviewed three USA guides (Fodor's, Frommer's and Let's Go) and, for those for whom money is not a primary issue, my first choice would be this guide.

Fodor's layout is great. The guide took you through a city in an intuitive manner. For example, in the 'Exploring Las Vegas' section, instead of scattering the recommendations before you (as Frommer's did), Fodor's approached it from the point of you progressing down 'the Strip'. Also, the guide only listed those sights (casinos) with "the most imaginative themes or attractive particulars."

The recommendations for accommodations were all 'top drawer' and unique, but normally pricey. The restaurant and nightlife selections were great, always distinguishing and creative and worth the search to find. The maps in the guide did help, a bit, but this is a weak area that Fodor's USA needs to work on ( Frommer's USA has the best).

If you are a bit short on money, and cutting costs maters then check out 'Let's Go USA'. If you are not financially challenged, and want to experience the best while you are on the road, then this is a great one volume guide. Strongly recommend 4.5 stars.
