London Not for Tourists Zusammenfassung

London Not for Tourists: 2010 Not for Tourists Inc

Not for Tourists London 2010, half anti-guidebook, half urban manual, is the ultimate little black book. Packing it all in and showing where to get a perfect pint, re-spoke your bike, or find the nearest cashpoint, the new guide is guaranteed to make you laugh out loud, even on an achingly slow bus journey to work. Whether you've called London your home for decades or just arrived last night, you ignore at your peril this new 2010 edition of Not for Tourists with its caustic neighbourhood summaries and refreshing, politically incorrect descriptions. Written by Londoners for Londoners, NFT presents the city along with its good, its bad and its downright hideous, in a format that is more accessible than the Yellow Pages. In over 600 pages of glorious content, the pocket-sized survival handbook covers 152 neighbourhoods from Hornsey to Tooting Bec, from Bow Common to Chiswick, as well as Parks, Sports, Transport, and Arts & Entertainment. Designed for street-savvy Londoners, commuters, business travellers and yes, tourists, NFT London includes a highly graphical map for every neighbourhood featured. User-friendly map icons highlight everything from post offices, supermarkets, libraries, lazy Sunday lunch spots and cinemas, to bars, DIY stores, hospitals and banks. So if you're meeting friends in an unfamiliar part of the city or find yourself off the beaten track, NFT is a must-have resource. Thanks to readers' feedback last year, the guide now features 4,500 listings. It has packed in hundreds of new entries and a further six new regional overview maps, as well as revising the hilarious guide sections at the back. But NFT doesn't waste your time by serving up five zillion options just because they're in a database: contributors have gone back to eat, drink, dance and shop their way through last year's listings to check that they're still worth knowing.

London Not for Tourists Bewertungen

Not for Tourists beat rival guides hands down with the sort of tips your mates would give. This one takes on the daunting task of squeezing the delights of London into a pocket-sized book. Handy pointers are given with warm affection: Covent Garden is 'a big set from a crap film', Shepherd's Bush 'infamous for shoot-outs at Nando's' and in Marylebone you should visit Claridge's 'to tell Gordon Ramsay to f*** off'. Ironically, perfect for tourists, but also for any Londoners not too up themselves to enjoy their own city.A - London Lite, 27 Oct 2009 Take an A-Z, mix it with a Lonely Planet and throw in all the things a guide book should never say, and voila, you get the Not For Tourists Guide to London...not the sort of book tourists should get their hands on but more of a survival kit for natives - The Observer A most useful book for visitors, full of imaginative advice on shops, sights and restaurants - and jampacked with invaluable maps. - The Mail on Sunday A no-holds barred Londoners' guide to the capital... the pocket-sized guide offers the politically-incorrect views on all things London. - London Informer The new must-have resource (the Yellow Pages are so over). - Chicago ...an answer to a prayer. - CBS Newsradio - for people who don't want to be seen carrying a guidebook. - The New Yorker - a series of guides designed to make you feel like a local. - CNN NFT books keep you from looking like that most loathed of public figures: the guy with the map. - Men's Journal - sleek, black, concise - - Men's Journal Survival handbooks for natives -- but they can be lifesavers for visitors as well. - Boston Globe It's not quite Lonely Planet, and it's not quite the Yellow Pages, but NFT may be their bastard child. - Toronto Star - the anti-guidebook. It empowers visitors - and locals - to make all their own decisions. - Toronto Star
