From the Back Cover:
The Mobil Travel Guide travel planners are designed for ease of use. This book begins with a general introduction that provides a geographical and historical orientation to the state and gives basic statewide tourist information, from climate to calendar highlights to seatbelt laws. The remainder of the book is devoted to travel destinations within the state - mainly cities and towns, but also national parks and tourist areas - which are arranged in alphabetical order.
The following sections explain the wealth of information you'll find about those travel destinations: information about the area, things to see and do there, and where to stay and eat. Sections include maps and map coordinates; destination information; driving and walking tours; what to see and do; special events; side trips; lodging and restaurant listings. Take a journey across state borders and expand your horizons.
