1: It's not a tour book
Although this book is packed with lots of information, it is not organized in a way that is helpful to some one (like me) who is planning a drive through the Hudson Valley. Information on a given location is scattered through several chapters making it difficult to find places one would like to visit. For example, let's say you are passing through Red Hook and would like to know what's worth doing there. You have to consult five separate chapters on Lodging, Food, Arts, Mansions, and Shopping and look for Red Hook in each of these. For the traveler, it would be much better to have all this info collected under each location. This is an excellent reference book, but if you are planning a trip, find a tour book which has the info organized by locations.
