Summary: Excellent resource at your finger tips/Boston Rocks!!
Review: This book was unbelievable for this location. Compared to fodor's, frommers and the like it had the most user friendly context. Their was some cool insights into the city, its history, and its culture. Easy to find information on all topics with colored tabs on the edge of the page so you can jump from nitelife, to food, to lodging, to transportation. Very handy when your on the street or on the "T" subway.
What more could I recommend about this book is that their headquarters is right next to Harvard Univ.Other great things about Boston. A very small city, clean and user friendly. Bostonians are very helpful and aren't as bad since this Nor Cal Guy was expecting East Coast "Jerks". Must Sees
1. Fenway, $20 standing room only tickets or at least do the tour.
2. Duck Tour, very fun and goes in the charles river.
3. Liberty trail. A great walking/trolley tour of the historic boston. Maybe 5 miles, but i did it at a snails pace in about 6 hours.
4. buy a $37 citypass (citypass.com) that includes;JFK Library, Harvard Mus, Science Mus, MFA(MusFineAart, my fav), Prudential Bldg, Aquarium.
5. Go in the summer!!
6. Get wkly T line pass for $16.50 and it includes buses, downtown trains and water taxi (Jul 2004) Good Luck and you'll Love it!!
