• Industry secrets on how to find the best hotel rooms • Details on alternative accommodations, great neighborhood restaurants, and cool, offbeat finds • Packed with personality and opinions "Full of good tips and suggestions." -Chicago Tribune "Packed with information on how to eat and sleep without depleting your bank account" -Louisville Courier Free companion podcast is available on Frommers.com Are You Ready to Travel Smart? If you'd like to get the most out of your dollar and your trip, this is the guide for you. I put a fresh spin on budget travel, showing you how to see the best for less and how to see it in a more authentic way-the way the locals do. Instead of spending $300 a night for a chain hotel, why not stay in Virginia Woolf's childhood home for just $150 a night, or bed down in a private home in central London for $45 a night? Or how about paying only $6.50 for a classic fish and chips meal at the Fryer's Delight, so you'll have money left over for an elegant high tea at the British Museum for just $17, half of what you'd pay elsewhere? Let me show you the "other" London-the one only insiders know about. Volunteer to help to build a burrow for hedgehogs with the London Wildlife Trust, or spend an afternoon watching the political brawls at Parliament. These are only a few of the great ways to get closer to the culture of London. Read on for more! Happy Travels, Pauline Frommer www.frommers.com/pauline <ul>

Here Lies America: Buried Agendas & Family Secrets at the Tourist Sites Where Bad History Went Down

Here Lies America is the history class your seventh-grade teacher should have taught—a hilarious tour of the major monuments and tourism attractions that were installed across America to commemorate truly horrible events. Jason Cochran spills the tea on disaster zones, battlefields, terrorist attack sites, and all those infamous Rebel statues—no gravestone unturned. Along the way, Cochran exposes the motivations of the people who installed our monuments to begin with. And when he pauses to seek the meaning behind the early demise of one of his own Confederate ancestors, he uncovers a tragic race-based murder plot that was buried for a century.\nThis is an American journey that could only be undertaken in our turbulent times, celebrating patriotism's occasional absurdities even as it surveys America’s teetering national mythology. If you ever wondered just how things in America got as bad as they are today, Cochran's peek at the rusty plaques and forgotten history of its memorials will fill you in on the backstories you missed. And as he raises an eyebrow to our shared history, he creates a moving miniature portrait of what it really means to be an American: what’s “fact,” what’s “history,” and what really matters.

Selling for a lower price than any similar guidebook, and deliberately limited to a short 256 pages, this EasyGuide is an exercise in creating easily-absorbed travel information. It emphasizes the authentic experiences in each destination:the most important attractions, the classic method of approaching a particular destination; the best choices for accommodations and meals; the best ways to maximize the enjoyment of your stay. Because it is "quick to read, light to carry", it is called an "EasyGuide", and reflects Arthur Frommer's lifetime of experience in presenting clear and concise travel advice.
