Synopsis
While New York boasts some of the world's most famous tourist attractions - from the Empire State Building to Central Park Zoo - it is also home to hundreds of little-known, but no less amazing, amusing, and entertaining destinations. "Off The Beaten (Subway) Track" is a practical guide to these off-the-beaten path attractions - including the world's tallest Doric column, the world's largest cathedral, a troll museum, and museum of comics and comic book art.Organized geographically to allow visitors to explore the culture and diversity of the city's great neighborhoods - including Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn, and Staten Island - this volume also includes easy to follow directions, using NYC's 500 subway stations to get you where you want to go.

A librarian's point of view
22. Juli 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
As a librarian, I am frequently asked for recommendations for travel books. Without any question I will suggest "Off the Beaten Subway Track." Whereas other travel books focus on the common and mundane, Ms. Reisman highlights unknown treasures that are easily accessible by public transportation. I am a native New Yorker and am embarassed to say that I was unaware of many of these sights. With this book as my guide, I will set about exploring my city.
Let me add that most travelogues are written in a dry style. That is certainly not the case here. With wit and warmth, Ms. Reisman conveys a love of NYC and its hidden treasures.

They have that here?
25. Juli 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
As a native New Yorker, I was thrilled to finally find a source that discussed the unusual attractions that existed in my beloved city. It is a refreshing change from the usual guidebooks that point out the obvious attractions. Instead, it dares to delve into the world of the lesser traveled which also includes many gems that were new to even a native New Yorker like myself. I've dog-eared all the pages that made me say, "They have that here?" I cannot wait to visit and experience a whole new New York. The book is entertaining, humorous and a fun read packed with interesting tidbits. The author provides information in a friendly and enduring manner. I absolutely recommend this to anyone who wants to experience a New York beyond its skyscrapers and crowds.

Excellent Resource for Both Tourists and Residents
22. Juli 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
This book is an excellent resource for not just tourists, but residents as well. As someone who lived in NYC for a couple of years, I was impressed by all the sites in Suzanne's book that I didn't know existed. Sure everyone knows the standard tourist attractions in NYC, but one of the many things that makes NYC unique is all the other less known attractions like the Lower East Side Troll Museum (reviewed on page 37). This is the beauty of Suzanne's book. This book is also well written and funny. There's not too many tour books out there that have humor in them as well. I definitely recommend this book. This book would make a fun gift as well.
