While, from a tour guide’s perspective, I was initially disappointed with the edited-out information on the outer boroughs, I find that from a first-time visitors’ perspective, the 4th edition makes an EXCELLENT guide. I believe that the depth with which you delve into the major sites, the new maps and photos, are all superb. I would recommend the 4th edition to anyone, ESPECIALLY first-time (or even second- and third-time) visitors to my fair city. (I will probably keep my 3rd edition on my reference shelf, for my own edification.)

INCORRECT INFORMATION: On page 66 under the heading of “Trinity Churchyard” the guide states there is a grave on the north side of the churchyard that is the burial place of Charlotte Temple going back to the late 1700s. This information was never validated especially since Charlotte Temple was a fictional character. However on Wednesday, 10 December 2008, workers opened the tomb to find it empty. Indeed it was fiction all along. Please edit this information from the Guide. The story can be read at The New York Times web site: http://tinyurl.com/be9682
