Frommer's Las Vegas 2007 (Frommer's Complete) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Frommer's Las Vegas was the second travel book on Las Vegas that I have purchased. The First was the Discovery Channel's Insight Guide, which proved to be more history and color photos than travel advice. Frommer's is known for their "opinionated" and "honest" reviews of travel destinations. We'll this one is no exception.
The book is laced with sarcastic tones and comments about the looks and feel of the casinos' and attractions in Vegas. The information is very personal and honest, to a point. The author Mary Herczog, is very opinionated about the feel of the places she visits. In a good sense, she lets you know about the space and attractiveness of each hotel and the feel of being there. But these are merely her opinions. Some of the places she finds distasteful and tacky, you might say magnificent! But never the less the whole book is very helpful in planning a trip to Las Vegas if you have never been before. Read again. Is helpful if you have never been to Las Vegas. Otherwise, you should have visited most of the major casino's there and decided for youself.
The book is more of a Encylopedia of Las Vegas, you pay for the organization of information. Very well written, but very steep in bias. Note to Fellow MEN: This book is written from the perspective of a WOMAN(No Offense). A smokey, crowded and noisey casino to Mary Herczog might be heaven to some of us Male Wager-Holics.
Overall the book is fun to read, informative, helpful in organizing addresses and phone numbers, insightful and interesting. Very opinionated, but good. Hope this helps.
