A very handy overview of Santa Fe and more November 12, 2009
Robert C. Ross (New Jersey)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Santa Fe is a very rich travel destination, but it is relatively small and one can see a great deal in an hour or two spent walking within a few blocks of the Plaza. This small guide is an excellent overview, and contains many suggestions for additional reading and study. It is current as of the beginning of 2009.
Taos is even smaller than Santa Fe, and this guide provides an excellent overview. Albuquerque is much larger than either Santa Fe or Taos, and it would be wise to obtain a more detailed guide unless you are giving Albuquerque just a lick and a promise.
My favorite guide to all three cities is Compass American Guides: New Mexico, 5th Edition, which is a personal but very insightful view of the riches in this area. The fifth edition was written originally by Lawrence W. Cheek and has been seamlessly updated by Andrew Collins. (Compass American Guides: Santa Fe, 3rd Edition edited by Larry Cheek still has great value.) A very good "standard" guide is Fodor's Santa Fe, Taos & Albuquerque, 2nd Edition (Fodor's Gold Guides).
I've prepared a Listmania! at the link in the first Comment of my favorite books about New Mexico which is, frankly, heavy on books emphasizing the Santa Fe experience.

A must buy! April 14, 2010
Karyn M. Price (florida)
I bought this book for a quick 3 day trip to Santa Fe and it was interesting and informative. I got a chance to do so many things that I would have never known about if not for this excellent book. Very readable and small enough for your backpack. Map included!!
