Hi Randy and Ted,

As we proceed to build the travel resources, I would like to suggest that you have a

general category that lists the following items.  I use them all the time and

believe they will show up for any area you put forth for submission.    Some were

already mentioned in the Western National Parks series.

Compass American Guides

Michelin Green Books

National Geographic’s Guide to Scenic Highways and Byways

Insiders Guide Travel Series

World Almanac Library of the States-juvenile collection with concise

information-everything you want to know quickly--one for each state

America the Beautiful Series by Scholastic--juvenile collection--one for

In addition to the above for New England, these are CD/DVD resources I have found

useful when touring the area.  I purchased these at attraction gift shops but they

can be purchased from the web sites listed.
