(Cheap Bastard) Customer Reviews for: Not for Tourists 2008 Guide to New York City (Not for Tourists: New York City) Rating - Better than nothing (semi-useful) I was just looking for something different than what this offers. The print is miniscule so you either have to have superman vision or be under 21 to easily read it. (Unless you carry a magnifying glass around NY with you...along with your umbrella, metro card, one dollar bills, cap, water bottle, room key, ID, garmin, cell phone, etc.) It has thousands of listings; mostly of places I wasn't looking for. It IS small and manageable. Something to read on the subway. Rating - Must-have for NY Trip! This little book was absolutely invaluable during recent trip to NYC. Very well-organized, great details, great maps. Although we really were tourists, this book saved our bacon on more than one occasion as we were able to find needed items/locations with very little trouble. It's like having a little concierge in your pocket at all times! Rating - Not for tourists ... great for getting the local flavor! I used this book as a tourist (less than 72 hrs in the city qualifies, right?), and could not have been more pleased. The size of the book is perfect for all-day toting around, and I like the scale of the maps that allow for a lot of detailed local information to be presented. The first half of the book is 1/4 mile scaled maps that meticulously show absolutely everything you could ever need to find - ATMs, coffee shops, farmers market, etc. The second half goes into more detail about specific places and items of interest ... Read More Rating - They aren't kidding I checked this book out from the library and dropped it in my suitcase without looking at it right before a trip to New York. I assumed the title was pandering to every person's belief that they are not a tourist--that's everyone ELSE. Well, I didn't need to find any hardware stores or pet supply stores so this book never left my hotel room. I am sure it's a great book but don't think of it as a travel guide. So my 3-star rating is an average of 4 stars for what it probably is, and 2 stars for what I thought it was! Rating - Really convenient and practical little black book! This book was great. I just returned from my trip to NY and I can tell you this book was a great help. I even got one for a friend who lives in NY and thought it was an excellent guide. It's easy to use and it size its really practical. You see people walking around NY with big maps or books, but this one fits in your pocket and has all the information you need. Other guides are just full with information, which is helpful but makes it really cumbersome to find things while you are walking around. see more reviews See all books by author Jane Pirone
