 Maui - Mile by Mile: The Emperor Has No Clothes Jul 04, 2006
By Eric Newman
"Eric"
I love Maui. I have all the Maui guidebooks. I have property in Maui. So I had to get "Maui - Mile by Mile, 2nd edition, fully illustrated with over 150 photographs," with a nice glossy color cover.
Helllllo... Once you get past the cover, all the pictures are black and white. To be more accurate, the pictures look like they came off a basement laser printer that's low on toner - complete with vertical stripes. Do you know what pictures of rainforests look like in black and white? Gray doormats. Sunsets look like the Hiroshima blast. Self-publishing is great, but shouldn't there be a disclaimer or something? Get Maui Revealed instead - Twice the information with color pictures.

Touches just the surface and lacks opinion Apr 25, 2006
By andreasorrano
We are just back from vacationing on Maui using both this book and the Maui Revealed. For starters, 190 pages didn't provide nearly enough information. Many of the places it lists would be fun to visit but we couldn't figure out the good from the bad as we drove by. The stripped down information severely mars the books usefulness as an actual travelguide.

helpful but unnecessary Jan 15, 2007
By San Diego Reviewer
Chances are this isn't your only Maui guidebook. If it is, you'll probably do fine with it. The book is small and light, which is a plus, but lacks color photos which are so often necessary in Maui. Honestly, we barely used it. Maui Revealed was much more useful and had all of the same info.

not so good Jun 23, 2006
By Daryl Fitzpatrick
This guide leaves out alot of things. Glancing at the reviews made it sound worthwhile buying but using it on our trip to Maui was a big big letdown. We learned alot more using the tried and true and accurate Frommer's brand.

eBook is your best bet - It's FULL color! Jul 10, 2006
By Adam Kanoho
"LOST_24"
Read many reviews about this book before I purchased it and ultimately I purchased both the eBook and the physical book. As many other reviewers here and elsewhere have said, the physical book is black and white internally. However the eBook is FULL color and is quite convenient in helping plan for your trip, especially alongside the physical book.
The guide is well written and easy to use. This is a driving guide only, for sights and activities along the major roads. It's geared towards an outdoor crowd. It should be an asset to Maui vacationers everywhere.
