Summary: "Looking for good travel information"

I was looking for detailed information on the North Woods area of Maine. this book had good reviews and I thought I would try it.
I was very disappointed in this book. It gives very little information on the area of Maine that I was interested in. There were very few restaurants listed. In fact after spending time on the internet I found more information on this are than from this book including many restaurants.
I was under the impression that the Fodor's Maine, Vermont & New hampshire book would give information on trails to hike in the Baxter State Park, but it didn't.
If you are looking for a good book for the area of central to northern Maine, this is not the book for you. It was over priced and not worth buying.

Summary: "Excellent Overview Of Northern New England"

FODOR'S MAINE, VERMONT & NEW HAMPSHIRE, 11TH EDITION is an excellent overview of the northernmost New England states. In addition to telling the reader about available opportunities in each area for recreation, dining, nightlife, shopping, and lodging, it also discusses the history of the area and mentions where you can go to learn about the history of each state. Anyone who, in 1984, saw the based-on-fact movie WHY ME?, in which the lead character's face is virtually destroyed in a car wreck caused by a drunk driver, might enjoy reading the Maine section's blurb on the home of anti-alcohol crusader Neal Dow, who invented Prohibition in 1851, while people who want inspiration to fight for what's important to them will love the parts of the Vermont section about Ethan Allen-related sites. Granted, this book does manage to miss some independent book and record stores, and includes little or nothing about radio stations in each area, but overall, it gives you a great picture of what northern New England is really like.
