Las Vegas 2017

It's not easy to keep up with the changes in "Sin City". That's why this guide is updated yearly by a savvy local who has the right sort of sense of humor for this city. Grace Bascos has devoted many years to chronicling this evolution in Vegas and seeking to capture its essence. How did she come to be a travel writer? "Too short to be a showgirl", she writes, "too bad at math to be a card dealer, I earn my keep in Vegas the next best possible way: as a freelance food and travel writer dedicated to all things Sin City. When I'm not eating, drinking, partying and relaxing through town for my craft, I write a weekly dining column…I am also a regular contributor to USA Today's Experience Las Vegas blog, as well as many other local and regional publications." This guide is updated yearly and comes in a large, easy-to-read font. It contains: - Exact pricing so there's never any guesses; - A handy pull-out map, plus dozens of maps within; - Opinionated advice on EVERYTHING from the raunchy to the gourmet. You'll find hard-hitting reviews on the city's surprisingly compelling museums, its fabulous restaurants, its cutting-edge music and dance clubs, hotels, restaurants and more; - Detailed day trip itineraries for the Hoover Dam, the Grand Canyon and the other compelling sights that are within an easy day trip of Las Vegas.
