amount of  hard-to-find information about
our city. This book is a real treasure… everyone
should buy two, and pass one on to a friend!”

guide that I feel proud to give to friends
and visitors, and that I keep on my desk right
next to my unabridged dictionary"

"Too bad your web page wasn't
available when I hit Taiwan in '96.
Sure would have made life a lot easier."
