I was disappointed that there wasn't much said for Connecticut in this book and almost half of the book was on MA. There are other states in New England other than MA!!

My husband and I did a New England driving tour based on this book. I'd liked Frommer books before so basically used this book and the web (including the digital version of this book) to plan the trip. Not such a good idea.
There are lots of errors/difficulties with the book...just a few examples:
*Listings of lunch places that have NEVER served lunch (and you show up and the guy yells at you and has never heard of Frommers and oh by the way you're 20 minutes from the subsequent location...and in all honesty, no one wants to be yelled at when they're on vacation).
*Dinner places that have closed down
*Maps that show roads that don't exist or that don't show key roads that you need
*Out of date info on hotels (including phone numbers)
I started keeping track and realized it wasn't my job to edit this book. But it was disappointing. It was still a great vacation and I would heartily recommend the vacation...but not the book.

This travel guide is heavily weighted toward Massachussetts and very thin on New Hampshire, and somewhat thin on Maine. In hindsight consider reviewing some of the other New England Guides such as Fodor's and Lonely Planet before considering this one. A bit of a disappointment.

We bought the Mobile book, the "Everything" book and this book. Of the three, this had the most detailed information. The maps are not great but the rest of the book makes up for that. The regional grouping was a great help.

Let's face it; most travel books are a glance-and-go proposition. Most of them do a passable job providing key information, but they aren't exactly a pleasure to read. Frommer's New England 2003 changes all that. Not only are the cititations clear, correct, and complete, many of them are laugh-out-loud funny or wickedly sly. At the end of a busy day on the road, I actually found myself reading the guide for fun (while happily settled in one of the recommended accommodations).A literate guide obviously written by folks in the know.
