Good book but a little too summarized. You can find the info you want but it will be difficult to go deeper into it. A lot of illustrations, very handy to find a good restaurant or a good place to stay.

The book is a cool guide, with good pictures (in color) and nice layout. However, the way that the book uses to tell about New Orleans is not very interesting. It gives some detail in several point of interest (like when the author explains about the cemetery), but many of the narrations are not tempting. In addition, I think the guide book is not made for budget traveller. If we follow the suggested itinerary, the cost will be relatively expensive compare to other alternatives. I should've seen it from the cover.
However, given certain conditions (like last minute road trip decision to go from midwest to the south in the winter), This book had help us greatly to decide where to go on the fly, and again, the book has beautiful pictures. Therefore, for this book, please judge the book by its cover.
