Comments, opinion and advice from the founder of Frommer's Travel Guides
"Pauline Frommer's London" is Named Best Guidebook of 2009 by The Society of American Travel Writers
In announcing its Gold Award for Best Guidebook at its yearly conference this past week, the S.A.T.W. wrote as follows:
Reading Pauline Frommer's London: Spend Less/See More is like traveling through London with a street-smart, savvy best friend. The book is exceptionally well-organized and features a wealth of insiders' secrets for making the most of your London experience. The book also includes a valuable section on the overrated tourist attractions you can skip without missing out. Altogether, the book appears to contain nearly everything you need to know to plan a safe, entertaining and meaningful trip."
Pauline Frommer's London, by Jason Cochran, is on sale at all major bookstores, both online and off.

Adding to the prestige is the fact that the judges of the awards are staff and faculty of notable journalism graduate schools, such as the University of Missouri. The awards are presented by the Society of American Travel Writers Foundation (www.satwf.org), which operates the contest each year under the name of the Lowell Thomas Awards.

Thanks Dad for the mention and Bob for talking a bit about the prestige of the award. I'm very proud of all 14 of the books in the Pauline Frommer series, which is the series specifically for adult budget travel and am so thrilled that they're getting recognition from my peers! To all of the rest of you who haven't tried a Pauline Frommer guides: please pick one up. I think/hope you'll like them! Best, Pauline
