Boston 2011 ( Not For Tourists )

Not for Tourists Guide to Boston 2011, half anti-guidebook, half urban manual, is the ultimate little black book. It reveals everything from where to find the most charming architecture and impressive cultural landmarks, to where to get the best pizza and catch a movie, or simply where to go for the most impressive view of Beacon Hill and Back Bay. Whether you`ve called Boston your home for decades or just arrived last night, you ignore at your peril this new 2011 edition with its caustic neighbourhood summaries and refreshing, politically incorrect descriptions. Meticulously researched and written by folks who actually live there, NFT presents the city along with its good, its bad and its downright hideous. In over 300 pages of glorious content, the pocket-sized survival handbook features simply everywhere, from Central Boston to Dorchester and Southwest, also covering all the city`s infamous colleges and universities. Designed for street-savvy locals, commuters, business travellers, and yes, tourists, NFT Boston includes a highly graphical map for every neighbourhood (and college campus) featured.User-friendly map icons highlight everything from coffee shops, supermarkets, landmarks, liquor stores, banks and libraries, to hardware stores, gas stations, post offices, gyms, pharmacies and even donuts! So if you`re new to the area, meeting friends in an unfamiliar part of the city or find yourself off the beaten track, NFT is a must-have resource. But NFT doesn`t waste your time by serving up five zillion options just because they`re in a database: contributors have gone back to eat, drink, dance and shop their way through last year`s listings to check that they`re still worth knowing.
