Average review score:

best for gays with nature tastes!
I am gay and I found in this guide very valuable tips for gays who wants to meet nice people and visit the best gay places : restaurants, beaches, clothes, etc. and also it suggested me the best diving places in Acapulco and It was alot of fun. I had another guide but only in this one I learnt a lot about Acapulco history and arquelogical sites (I love arqueology too). The recommendations of typical restaurants are also great: good, clean and cheap. Well, enjoy it!


ACCESS Santa Fe, Taos & Albuquerque
Published in Paperback by Access Pr (March, 1999)
Authors: Harper Collins and Sharon Lloyd Spence
Average review score:

ACCESS Guides are the BEST!
I always find the ACCESS Guides to be the best travel guides overall, and look for them whenever I am about to travel to a new location. So far, I have used their guides to Alb/SantaFe/Taos, Seattle, Montreal/Quebec City, Phoenix, San Francisco, Hawaii, San Diego, and London.

I like their format - they are organized by neighborhoods, so you don't have to seach around through the book all day; and they have an empasis on restaurants and shopping, which I find the other guides don't give enough info on and which are my FAVORITE activities when travelling. Also their print is large, clear, and color coded, which also makes it easy to find what you want (restaurants in one color, shopping in another, tourist sites in another).

It's the best guide to carry around each day while travelling.

Average review score:

A must for collectors of Native American pottery!
Elliott and co authors have captured the essence of Acoma and Laguna in their pictures and text of this highly collectible Native American pottery. As a small collector of this pottery, I have learned so much more from this wonderful book! If you are on a "hunt" for Acoma and Laguna collectibles, I recommend you take this book along with you.


Adapter Kit: Mexico: A Traveler's Tools for Living Like a Local
Published in Paperback by Avalon Travel Publishing (09 January, 2002)
Author: Ken Luboff
Average review score:

Useful advice
I liked the author's honest assessment of living in Mexico. It helped me to understand that relocating would be different than my frequent (and great) Mexico vacations. I especially appreciated the descriptions of individual regions and cities that the author believes offer the best lifestyle options for a new resident. This was a very thoughtful book and I know I'll make a better informed decision about moving because of the information provided.


Adelita: A Mexican Cinderella Story
Published in Hardcover by Putnam Pub Group Juv (September, 2002)
Authors: Tomie De Paola and Tomie dePaola
Average review score:

A Mexican Cinderella Story.....
Poor Adelita. Her mother died in childbirth, her adoring father soon remarried a mean and jealous woman with two awful daughters, and then he unfortunately die, too. Adelita was now all alone in the world, living with an unloving, cruel family. Soon, she was relegated to the position of servant and sent to live in the kitchen, cleaning, cooking, and taking care of her stepmother's and stepsisters' every want, wish, and need. One day an invitation arrived for a fiesta at Senor Gordillo's hacienda to celebrate the homecoming of his son, Javier..... Tomie dePaola takes the old and familiar Cinderella story, and gives it a clever and humorous, south of the border twist. This is a much more realistic retelling. There's no pumpkin coach, fairy godmother, or glass slipper, but the magic of the Cinderella theme shines through with charm and wit. Mr dePaola's lively text is heartwarming and engaging, and sprinkled with Spanish words and phrases. But it's his vibrant and expressive artwork that really make this picture book stand out and sparkle. Each page is a feast for the eyes, filled with warm colors, dazzling Mexican folk art designs, and marvelous eye-catching detail. Young and old alike, will want to linger and explore each illustration before turning the page. Perfect for youngsters 4-8, Adelita is a wonderful addition to the collection of Cinderella stories. This is Tomie dePaola at his very best, and a must-have for all home libraries.


Adventure Guide to New Mexico
Published in Paperback by Hunter Publishing, Inc. (July, 1996)
Authors: Rankin Harvey, Dave Houser, Steve Cohen, and Steven Cohen
Average review score:

See the Real New Mexico!
I used this book as a guide for a two-week driving trip through New Mexico. It was fantastic! I was especially glad I took it along -- because I lost a day due to a flat tire and it was so easy to change my plans and not feel like I was missing out on something great. The details are excellent and the authors must have truly enjoyed researching the restaurants, lodging, and points of interest. Good choices, all!

Albuquerque: Where the World Celebrates Ballooning
Published in Paperback by Amer World Geographic Pub (December, 1997)
Author: Treasure Chest Books
Average review score:

Just what we were looking for !
My wife is an Artist. One of the themes she likes to paint is ballooning. I bought several books on this subject. There was no reviews of this book "ALBUQUERQUE. Where the World Celebrates Ballooning". It is inexpensive, and I was concerned the book might be too descriptive, containing perhaps few pictures and an too much text with an emphasis on promoting tourism for New Mexico. What a great surprise! Other than a five page textual introduction (also with pictures inserted), the book is ALL pictures, the only text are short footers on the pictures. One hundred twenty pages and 200+ huge, colorful and artful photographs. A great buy!
