Summary: Type to Small!
Comment: I bought this book for my first visit to New York City. Imagine my surprise when the type was to small to read. I sure there's lots of great info, but my middle-aged eyes couldn't make it out. Perhaps it should come with a magnifying glass.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Well written
Comment: This is a well written guide; although, I only used for about 2 weeks. It's useful for learning neighborhoods, but you'll get more by just walking through the neighborhoods yourself. Recommended for those less interested in self exploration or completely clueless about the city.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Mighty little book
Comment: This guide has exceeded expectations. For someone trying to orient yourself in NY, this guide provides the tools that you need. It is organized by the sections of the city, and provides a comprehensive layout of the city. It also gives useful information on how to navigate through the subway and taxi system. Excellent guide for a NY tourist.

Summary: Best Guide to the City
Comment: My mom gifted this to me a couple months before I moved to NYC and since then I have referred to it as The Bible. It's gotten me around the city, helped me learn all the pieces in its individual breakdown of the sections of the city, and inspired me to do a lot of exploring. It's full of helpful hints and very detailed maps. Definately consult this if you're visiting the city, but i especially recommend it if you plan on moving here. There are detailed maps of each section that show you everything from the nearest subway line to all the local coffee shops, banks, and laundromats.

Summary: 4.5 stars
Comment: The book has clear maps that DEF. help in getting around. The subway locations were clearly marked, and you get a close view of each section of the city. My only complaint is that it always seems like the restaurant, or store, or coffee shop, etc. that I am looking for is never in the book.
