Reviews
"The biggest improvement is the maps; an accurate map by Larry Garland AMC (Appalachian Mountain Club) cartographer, accompanies every ride description. The maps alone are worth the price."
"What makes the book interesting and useful is the variety of rides: road rides, off-road rides, and back-road rides."
Peter Minnich in The Mountain Ear, Conway, N.H. May 31, 2007
