Good guide September 5, 2010
API (New-York, NY United States)
I guess only locals can tell if the book is really a good guide for California visitors. Me and my wife just got back from 2-week trip to California and used the book as our primary guide - I'd say it served the purpose well and hope we will use it again when visit California next time. Just one thing - not sure if that a result of recent hike in fees, but many attractions fees mentioned in the book was really 10-15% more than quoted.

I live in California and the recommendations in this book are completely inaccurate, and incomplete.
Due to the long amount of time that it takes to generate a printed book the information is out of date.
For far more recent data use [...]
 Something's Missing! July 28, 2010
Laura G (Colorado Springs, CO)
My husband and I moved to California last fall and I recently bought this guidebook in preparation for a drive we took up the coast from LA to Monterey. The book was fine for that, but then we took a day trip to San Jose and there was almost NOTHING in this book about San Jose. San Jose is one of the biggest cities in the entire US and all we could find in the book was a single tiny paragraph that mentioned a couple museums--no restaurant suggestions, no sights to see, no lodging info. I couldn't believe it. We'll be heading to San Francisco in a couple months and so far the section on SF seems to be sufficient, but I still can't get over the lack of even the most basic info on San Jose. What a disappointment!

I expected a little bit more. But I could also go with this guide book.

Excellent! I used to have a very old one from a previous trip to the U.S. I found this new edition even better.
