 Useful book Aug 08, 2000
This is a useful book with information on a great many places within an easy drive of Houston. More detailed maps would be a plus.

 Native Houstonian!!!!! Sep 18, 2000
I purchased this book last year and LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!It covers almost every festival and other happening there is within driving distance of Houston. You will still probably want to call and check to make sure of the date of the festival (or other event) that you are interested in. The book provides the phone numbers to the chambers of commerce, etc. which makes it easier to find out all of that good stuff. So if you like taking short trips, THIS BOOK IS A MUST HAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 less than perfect book Mar 03, 2002
How many times have you considered the VFW a local eatery?
We tried using the book and found it to be a serious let down. A day trip to Sealy? What is the purpose? Hinze's Bar-B-Que is very good but you can find better without leaving Houston.
To be fair, we did not try all the trips, but the ones we did try left a lot to be desired. Not for people interested in getting out of the car.

A great book! Jan 26, 2004
By D. N. Gruel
"grandmom"
We are new to Houston, and have lots of company, as well as liking to explore and find new restaurants, shops, activities, beautiful views, etc. for ourselves. We have learned so much about Houston and the surrounding area in a few short weeks thanks to this book. And, every recommendation we have tried has panned out well!!
 HOUSTON AREA FOR THE NOVICE Oct 24, 2006
By Shannon Deason
As someone who is very familiar with houston and the surrounding area, i find this book a bit disappointing and dont agree with many of the authors suggestions, but if you are totally new to the area, this may be an good starter book I suppose, but frankly, stick to Galveston, Kemah, Brenham, Beaumont, and you'll have a good time and find lots to do in and around these places, frankly i dont care to drive two hours to some town of 300 and eat at some dive and stay at someone's house, id rather take in historical Galveston, or the Kemah boardwalk, or Crocket Street in Beaumont, but hey that's just me.
