-- A detailed description of the path, including mileage
-- General background, including the history of the path and any useful tourist information
-- The level of difficulty, type of scenery, and condition of pavement
-- Availability of food and bathrooms

This book was a nice introduction to some of the bike paths in New England. The path descriptions, for the paths I have ridden, were very accurate. The only thing missing were detailed maps of the trails themselves.
