Local Knowledge Travel Guides:Best Of Cozumel
It would be tough to make the concept work as well for bigger destinations, but Jackson Lindsay's travel guides, including "Best of Isla Mujeres", "Best of Cozumel" and "Best of Playa Del Carmen" are handy-dandy for jaunts to those sections of Mexico. About 4x6 inches and so easy to tuck into a pocket, they are quick references (with Lindsay's very pointed opinions) for dining, activities, shopping, transportation, nightlife and services, with tiny maps and about a paragraph each for the entries. But within these briefs are all you need to know. --The Denver PostWhere do travel writers chill out? Mexico is on Mequon travel writer Jackson (Kip) Lindsay's list, which makes sense since his current publication covers the Yucatan coast. He first experienced Mexico at age 17, touring with his folks in a rented VWBug. --Milwaukee MagazineVacationers have long understood that the best recommendations for places to eat, things to do and even places to shop are not found in diamond-or star ranked guidebooks. The best recommendations are often from people who know the inside scoop. If you plan on heading to the Yucatan Peninsula, then you might want to consider Mequon's Jackson Lindsay among your inner circle of friends. Or, at the very least, pick up one of his three newly published Local Knowledge Travel Guides on Cozumel, Isla Mujeres or Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. --News Graphic
