Summary: Outdated Info
Review: As a resident of Corpus, I thought this book would be great to have on hand for out-of-town visitors. However, after just a brief run-through, I noticed several things were out of date. This book was published this year, but lists some places (restaurants, movie theaters, and stores) that have been closed for a year or more. I know they had access to accurate and up-to-date information because they also list new places that have opened in the past year, long after some of the other places they listed closed. What happened?

Summary: Outdated Info
Review: I'll be visiting Corpus Christi for the first time in May, and if I like it, will be moving there within the next couple of years. I've never wanted to move cross-country on a whim before, but the way this book describes the Coastal Bend area, it makes me want to! It provides information that you wouldn't normally find in a travel guide, everyday info that the normal tourist wouldn't care about (lists of radio stations, television channels, describes the library systems, newspapers, weekly & monthly magazines, etc.), though someone who is relocating would. It would appear, to my un-schooled eye, to be about as complete as it could get.

Rating: 5 stars
