Book Description

The 1999 edition of City Profiles USA provides key contact data for 212 cities in the United States and Canada. Included among the cities listed are the largest U.S. cities, other top U.S. travel destinations, the 50 state capitals, and -- new for 1999 -- major Canadian cities. Though designed originally for business travelers, this compilation also provides valuable travel information for vacationers, researchers, and others. The types of contact information provided include addresses, telephone numbers (including toll-free numbers where available}, fax numbers, and, for some listings, e-mail and/or World Wide Web addresses. Listings for each city include hotels, restaurants, important information resources such as mayor's offices and convention and visitor bureaus, colleges and universities, hospitals, car rental agencies, airports and airport transportation, and more. Of special interest are listings for local attractions and events, which also include the month a particular event takes place.
