Summary: "Enhanced my road trip"

I used this book for a road trip through West Virginia in April 2010. Time was limited and I only followed a few of the scenic drives from the book, but I was very pleased with the book and using it definitely enhanced my trip. I appreciated directions, outline of atrractions and the history and background included. If time had permitted, I'd have definitely followed more of the scenic drives outlined in the book.

Summary: "good guide"

We used this book along with another one on our trip to WV and loved it. We could drive the wonderful county roads where you rearly see other cars and got some wonderful views which are sometimes hard to be catch in a photo but stay in your memories forever.

Summary: "AWESOME!!!"

This book is downright AWESOME! We purchased this recently before going to the Greenbrier and used it extensively for some short side trips and FYI during our travel. There is all kinds of information in this book that even the most seasoned travelers don't know. This is one of the most useful books I've ever purchased.
