Any newcomer to the Detroit area should pick up a copy of Global Journeys in Metro Detroit. I did so when I moved to the area in 2000 and have used my copy almost weekly to find area shops, restaurants and cultural events. Fortunately, and not surprisingly, the book's title and contents cover more than just the bombed out, decrepit, crime ridden, over taxed, city proper. (Much of Detroit's ethnicity resides in the safer suburbs.) As a bonus, the book includes a good amount of information on Detroit's "suburban" neighbor and occasional cultural superior, Windsor, Ontario, Canada. The lack of any useable index keeps this book from earning the highest rating.
