Frommer's EasyGuide BARCELONA & MADRID
by Patricia Harris David LyonSpain vies with France as the most heavily-visited European nation, and Barcelona and Madrid are its two most heavily-visited cities. But while our authors are infatuated with both cities, about which they have written several earlier travel guides (and food commentaries), they also devote considerable attention to side-trips out of Madrid (to Toledo, Cuenca, Segovia, Avila, Salamanca and Zamora) and out of Barcelona (to Tarragona, Sitges and Girona), to which they returned for this new Easy Guide. The result: a surprisingly comprehensive look (in 256 pages) at many of Spain's most compelling locations, with updated and newly-researched advice for 2015 and beyond

The number of tourists making a trip to these legendary locations is awesome. Our authors are long-recognized and well-acclaimed travel journalists, who have each devoted considerable time to formulating their personal recommendations for these major Italian destinations. Two hundred eighty-eight pages bear their travel advice.

Frommer's EasyGuide to Cancún & the Caribbean Coast
by Christine Delsol Maribeth MellinCancun is the single most heavily-visited vacation destination in Mexico today. And with reason. Magnificent beaches of fine white sand, superb restaurants and lodgings, crafts-and- clothing-shops, history-and-nature-featuring theme parks, and nearby Mayan sites (especially Tulum and Chichen-Itza) of breath-catching interest. Add the same facilities and attractions of the beach-lined Caribbean coast north and south of Cancun (Isla Mujeres, the "Maya Riviera", among many more), and you have an indispensable visit and stay to make. The authors of Frommer's Easy Guide to Cancun and the Caribbean Coast of Mexico have spent years in this warm-weather area, diligently searching for the best, and have set forth their top preferences in hotel resorts, restaurants, attractions and shops in all price ranges. Their 256-page guide is an important work.
Frommer's EasyGuide To Charleston, Savannah and St. Augustine
by Stephen Keeling Lesley AbravanelThese three charming Southern "capitals" (including the oldest in America) are massively popular tourist destinations because of their well-preserved architecture (capturing the ante-bellum life of the 1860s and the Spanish colonial era, in the case of St. Augustine), their active theatre scene (especially in Charleston), their numerous museums and historic homes, their remarkable restaurants, and the unique personality of their civic life and residents. You dip into an earlier era when you visit them. Our Easy Guide captures the best of their facilities and attractions in condensed form, confining its 256 pages and maps to the outstanding highlights of all three cities.
