Ebook: Frommer's Toronto 2009 (Frommer's Complete)

I give "Frommer's Toronto 2007" high marks for directing me to such attractions as the Royal Ontario Museum (a smaller but still impressive version of the British Museum) and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's small but charming museum. Its restaurant recommendations were generally on the money too, particularly those for Le Select and Le Papillon. The book does, however, seem somewhat skimpy for such a complex and vibrant city as Toronto, and it didn't give me as much information as I wanted on such decidedly important subjects as the Toronto Subway. (A complete subway map, not just one for downtown, would have been extremely useful.) I noted the complaints about the book's inaccuracy with interest, because I found at least one place where the book was inaccurate; it gave the address of Second City as 56 Blue Jays Way, instead of the correct address of 51 Mercer Street. I wonder what other mistakes it contained that I didn't have the chance to check out. In any case, the book contains adequate information, and Hilary Davidson's writng style is breezy and enjoyable. But maybe I should have used Fodor's instead, as other reviewers suggested.
