内容简介

"Many guides claim to be 'insider' takes on travel, but few deliver truly out-of-the-ordinary info. This one does . . . many listings will surprise even natives."— New York Daily News Rich with historical and cultural attractions, the Hudson Valley and Catskills area will be celebrating its 400th anniversary in 2009. The region will commemorate Henry Hudson’s sail up the river, Robert Fulton’s first successful commercial steamship operation, and many more nationally significant events. The region is also a treasure trove for travelers seeking outdoor recreation, five-star dining, cozy bed & breakfasts or comfy inns, as well as galleries, antiques shops, wineries, farm stands, and places to hike, kayak, and canoe.

In this completely revised seventh edition, author Joanne Michaels, the most respected travel writer in the region, includes hundreds of places to dine and stay, along with a wealth of information about things to see and do—all within driving distance of New York City, Boston, and beyond. With detailed maps and hundreds of honest reviews about accommodations, eateries, and activities that will appeal to both affluent travelers and those seeking special value, Michaels’s advice will aid in planning an unforgettable trip. 75 black-and-white photographs and 13 maps
