1: Great for tourists
We were tourists to NYC. Had great info on places to see in every area of town. Good thing to have in your bag with you... Ideally order it a few weeks in advance, so you can plan what you want to see ahead of time.

2: GREAT TOUR GUIDE!!
This was my first time in NYC and just LOVED it!! This travel guide, once again exceeded my expectations. I'm a fan of DK Eyewitness Travel Guide. I don't go anywhere without these guides. I feel lost without them. Its such a great guide with maps, recommendations, the metro map system, etc. The downside of this book is that it shouldn't be name 'NEW YORK', instead, it should be MANHATTAN. Since it ONLY talks about Manhattan. It should have a few pages dedicated to Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, etc. The metro system map it comes with is ONLY of Manhattan. But this is a great guide with EVERYTHING you need: History, schedules, information, etc. DON'T GO TO NEW YORK WITHOUT IT!! Plus it looks great for your collection.

4: Simply the best!
This is the second book I have for cities and the eyewitness series is simply the best you will find in travel books on a particular city. Great pics, history, maps and things to do.
Don't waste time on other books, get these for your travels.

5: New York is not equal to Manhattan
I borrowed this book from a friend due to the fact that my NYC trip was unplanned. I usually am a Lonely Planet fan, but I was left with no choice but to use this one. I am impressed with the quality of the book, and yes, I do agree that this is one that can be browsed after the trip, and not forgotten in an attic. However, the coverage is completely restricted to Manhattan, and the rest of the boroughs are condensed into a "Farther Afield" section. New York City is not equal to Manhattan. Although most of the sights are in Manhattan, I am sure that there are plenty of other sights to see in the other boroughs as well.
