Frommer's Irreverent Travel Guides are wickedly irreverent, unabashedly
honest, and downright hilarious, and provide an insider's perspective
on which attractions are overrated tourist traps and which are the
secret gems that locals love. You'll get the lowdown on restaurants,
lodging, and shopping, and even find out what the locals think of you.
"Like being taken around by a savvy local," said the New York Times. Frommer's Irreverent Guide to Boston is a smart, savvy,

Freedom Trail, and how to find the bar Where Everybody Knows Your Name.
Savor the city's best bowl of clam chowder and the bluebeery ale at the
microbrewery near Fenway Park. Find out which nightclubs the eggheads
at Harvard, MIT, and BU visit to lose brain cells.

This war is of considerable interest both because of its duration and the number of theatres in which it was fought. In this book, Hundred Years’ War expert Dr Anne Curry reveals how the war can reveal much about the changing nature of warfare: the rise of infantry and the demise of the knight; the impact of increased use of gunpowder and the effect of the wars on generations of people around it.
