It's a thick book full of helpful information about various places around the globe. Granted I'm not going to visit all 1,000 places mentioned in the book, but it's a nice starting point for those interested in domestic and/or international travel. This is an excellent reference, but if you're planning a trip to one of these places, you'll want to get a travel guide devoted just to that country. This book is not meant to be such a guide. I'm sure some people will wonder why the author picked town x or over town y, but such subjective criticism is to be expected anytime someone compiles a book like this. We all have our own ideas of where others should visit, but the overall selection of locations is very good.
