But this is the one worth buying and keeping tucked in your purse or bag when you're out and about in the city.

It's small enough to fit in your pocket, yet the maps are detailed enough to show every street. The authors accomplish this two ways: there are a lot of map pages, and the guide doesn't try to cover too large an area. If you live ... Read More
