Great book that covers area walks in urban Cincinnati. Includes clear concise directions, area points of interest like historic sites and restaurants, with turn-by-turn directions. I've lived in Cincinnati for some time and was happy to find this book and discover even more things of interest in this history-rich area. My husband and I have been able to spend a great day out with only this book, a few dollars and a good pair of walking shoes. Highly recommend for those new and old to the Cincinnati area.

What a great resource for visiting Cincinnati, which I will do in early March. I love walking tours such as these, with maps, clear walking directions, and historical information about buildings and neighborhoods. I only wish I had time to walk all 32 walks. I'm so glad I found this book.
