1,000 Places to See in the U.S.A. & Canada Before You Die

It is fun to page through this book and check off places you have been and see what places you might like to visit.

If you asked a hundred people for a thousand places to see before you die, you might get a list similar to this. There is no doubt that you can do what other reviewers have done and thought of something that should be on the list but isn't. Overall however, this is a well thought out list with a wide variety of things to see and do.

This book is interesting in the types of 'places' it has listed. There are whole cities listed (Roswell, New Mexico), specific places within one city (Stockyards at Fort Worth Texas) and even events (Texas State Fair) and luxury hotels (Bellagio in Las Vegas). Some places listed cover several things all at once; for example, Food in New Orleans listed two or three very well known places to eat.

I love the idea behind putting this book together. It's neat to look through this book and see the places that I have already visited. Now when I drive through certain states I will make sure to visit these sites that I didn't know were such landmarks! I am getting this book for all of my friends for Christmas who I know take one or two vacations a year or who travel for work...heck, if you pass through several states on your way to your destination, you can knock out more of these than you think! Great idea for a book!

I bought this book before a recent road trip with my husband. It was very handy to give me insight to places we were visiting or ideas I hadn't already had. Overall it's just a fun book to have! I like to highlight all the places we have been.

I enjoy traveling and always looking for a new place to explore and what to do when I am there. This book tells you exactly that and more. When the best time to go and how much you will be spending on rooms and excursions. I really enjoyed going through this book and highlighting where I have been and where I want to go. This book is exactly what I was looking for. THANK YOU!!

This book was very interesting. Limiting it to 1,000 things is both a plus and a minus for it. On one hand, there are things excluded from the book that I felt should have been in there in some locations. On the other hand, limiting it to 1,000 things keeps the book from being too long and cumbersome. Overall, this book was an enjoyable read but when traveling, I would definitely couple it with your own research about interesting attractions in the locale you are visiting.
