I got this book to see what it had to say about Pensacola. 85% of that chapter was about Milton. That's like getting a travel guide for New York City and only getting to read about Newark. Completely misleading AND a huge missed opportunity.

The second star is because the range of activities/offerings seems broad, even if it appears they did all their research in one random square mile and moved on to the next region.

Really liked how the book was organized and any guidebook that includes a list of bookstores for each location wins in my book.
