Open Road's new, two-color, small format travel guides, for travelers looking for a lightweight companion to take them to Paris's best sights and walks! Like Open Road's series of foreign language menu-readers, our new compact, lightweight travel guides are for those travelers who already know where they're staying and don't want to lug around a huge book during the day. With a sprinkling of restaurant selections arranged by neighborhood, our Made Easy series focuses on taking readers to the best, as well as the most different and unusual, sights and walking tours in each city. Tuck this guide into your pocket and head out for a great day of sightseeing: over 100 sights (from the popular Eiffel Tower to the strange Counterfeit Museum!), with insider tips on where to stop at a cafe, where to eat, interesting shops, and beautiful walks along the Seine or through the famed Latin Quarter. Attractive design features a second colour on the inside. Note On The Competition: AAA Essential Paris focuses only on the major sights in Paris. Fodors Pocket Paris and Frommers Portable Paris are heavy on restaurants and hotels and also mostly only the major sights.
This series will cover more than the major sights, include walking tours, and will skip hotels except for a top ten listing.

Amsterdam has more canals than Venice, more bridges than Paris, more bicycles than cars, and perhaps more tolerance than any other city in the world. It's what makes Amsterdam truly unique and such a wonderful place to visit. Because the city is so compact, you can see a lot even if your stay is short. Its sights are as diverse as its residents, including beautiful churches, lovely gardens, world-class museums and, of course, the infamous Red Light District. Cultured, vibrant, fun-and easy to get around-Amsterdam is the perfect European city to explore.As our title says, this little guide will make your trip to Amsterdam easy. Tuck it into your pocket and head out for a great day of sightseeing: You'll have over 100 places of interest at your fingertips, with insider tips on cafes, restaurants, shops, and outdoor markets. We've also given directions for great themed walks around the city, along the canals and, of course, through the naughty part of town (this is Amsterdam, after all!). Forget those large, bulky travel tomes. This handy little pocket guide to Amsterdam is all you need to make your visit enjoyable, memorable-and easy.Quote referring to the author's Eating & Drinking in Paris: ...an opinionated little compendium...the right size for a traveler - New York Times
