A good book, but use it with care December 23, 1998 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a useful, detailed and interesting book, but it suffers from a number of defects as a practical travel guide. Firstly the layout is confusing, as the book is divided according to subject rather than location, which necessitates much cross-indexing and use of yellow stickies in order to find your way around (For instance, if you wish to visit La Paz you will find it in many different parts of the book, under such headings as accomodation, restaurants, camping etc). More disturbingly, the information on "side trips" contains many inaccuracies, as well as maps which can be feeble to the point of being misleading. Anyone who has tried exploring Baja by car knows that roads tend to turn into tracks, and tracks often disappear altogether. Good maps and clear information are essential if you want to avoid getting hopelessly lost. Maybe the trick is to take this book with you, but not to be too trusting.
