III.Provides extensive coverage on US and Canadian national parks， adventure travel and outdoor activities. Also travel-tested budget tips on cheap transport， meals， accommodation and entertainment. An extensive itineraries chapter features the country's best music festivals， back roads， big cities and small towns.　1.USA & Canada on a ShoestringWhoa ho！ The USA and Canada - the world's 3rd- and 2nd-largest countries - offer heartbeat-skipping moments on the countless miles stretching from sea to sea. Are they worth the hype？ You betcha. Find out why with sample highlights from our brand new USA & Canada on a shoestring：2.BEST HOSTELSHI Clay Hotel & International Hostel， Miami： century-old art-deco beaut - where Al Capone rolled the dice - now offers dorms within walking distance of South Beach nightclubs.ADK Adirondack Loj， New York State： sit-back lodge sits lakeside on the edge of Adirondack hiking and cross-country ski trails.Charleston's Historic Hostel： Southern charm casts its grip onto every chair-rocking guest; best is that it's a short stroll from the historic district bars and the water.Wilderness Hostels， Alberta： along the Icefields Parkway from Banff to Jasper are 10 hostels with hikes， rock climbing and ping-pong.HI Redwood National Park Hostel： northern California's superb hang-out hostel is right across from the Pacific and near hiking trails that lead past half the state's towering redwoods.3.BEST COLLEGE TOWNSBoulder： on the Rockies' front range， hip（pie） Boulder begs its locals to get outside. In summer the town creek welcomes tubing （drunk） students， and nearby canyons draw rock climbers.Austin： so unlike the rest of the state， with an entrenched music scene， a wing-flapping bat colony and artsy crowd all but drowning out more conservative folk like former resident George W Bush.Eugene： Eugene scores for its punk Whiteaker district and the prototype for Moe's Tavern from The Simpsons. Eugene may well out-doobie any campus in the country.Chapel Hill： once home to pre-pro Michael Jordan， Chapel Hill cultivates indie rock for its laid-back， left-leaning University of North Carolina.Boston： OK it’s a city， but Boston bubbles with dozens of schools， bookstores and bars on both sides of the James River. Up in Cambridge， famed Harvard dates from the 17th century.4.BEST OFF-THE-BEATEN-TRACK PLACESSequoia & Kings Canyon： when Yosemite is crawling with visitors， these national parks offer elbow space （and then some）， the world's largest tree and views below and above an 8200ft divot of earth.Nebraska Panhandle： the Great Plains' prehistoric sea floors haven't made much of a dent on mainstream itineraries， but a car-made replica of Stonehenge and Crazy Horse's death site are worth a go.Wisconsin： Milwaukee is home to Harley and beer. Try Madison for student life， and Green Bay on game day. Two-laners take in the Mississippi or 19th-century villages in Door County.Cape Breton Highlands， Nova Scotia： Canada's great park is no secret， but way off most itineraries： cliff-hanging hikes to backcountry campsites and whale sightings off the rocky coast. Take a kilt for Scottish lore.West Texas： the Lone Star State is underrated， particularly out west， where you can see unexplained lights at Marfa， one of the most unlikely art centres in the USA， plus loose 'land-o-lost' boulders and hot springs on the Rio Grande at Big Bend National Park.Other suggested Highlights in USA & Canada on a shoestring include： Best Cities; Best National Parks; and Best Activities.IV.California sunsets， Vegas jackpots， BC rain forests， New York energy – hit the wide open highways to the trip of your choice. Written by and for back-packers， this compact， detailed guide lets you go further， stay longer and pay less for the adventure of a lifetime.1.GET THE INSIDE SCOOP – extensive eating， sleeping and drinking listings， themed highlights and travel-tested budget tips from an intrepid team of backpacking authors　2.FIND YOUR WAY – expanded itineraries and more than 100 + maps put you in charge of your journey　3.DIVE INTO ADVENTURE – outdoor activities chapter covers adrenaline rushes from mountain biking in Moab to skiing Whistler and diving the　V.Florida Keys　1.SEE ANOTHER SIDE – cruise unexplored backroads， scenic byways， hip neighborhoods， diverse cities and vast national parks　U.S.AA country of central and northwest North America with coastlines on the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. It includes the noncontiguous states of Alaska and Hawaii and various island territories in the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean. The area now occupied by the contiguous 48 states was originally inhabited by numerous Native American peoples and was colonized beginning in the 16th century by Spain， France， the Netherlands， and England. Great Britain eventually controlled most of the Atlantic coast and， after the French and Indian Wars （1754–1763）， the Northwest Territory and Canada. The original Thirteen Colonies declared their independence from Great Britain in 1776 and formed a government under the Articles of Confederation in 1781， adopting （1787） a new constitution that went into effect after 1789. The nation soon began to expand westward. Growing tensions over the issue of Black slavery divided the country along geographic lines， sparking the secession of the South and the Civil War （1861–1865）. The remainder of the 19th century was marked by increased westward expansion， industrialization， and the influx of millions of immigrants. The United States entered World War II after the Japanese attack （1941） on Pearl Harbor and emerged after the war as a world power. Washington， D.C.， is the capital and New York the largest city. Population： 296，000，000.CanadaA country of northern North America. Originally inhabited by various Native American peoples， mainland Canada was explored by the English and the French beginning in the late 15th century. The French established the first permanent settlement at Port Royal （now Annapolis Royal） in 1605 but gradually lost control of eastern Canada， which was ceded to England in 1763 after the Seven Years' War. The Dominion of Canada was formed in 1867 and extended to the western provinces in 1905; Newfoundland formally joined the federation in 1949. The Statute of Westminster （1931） confirmed Canada's status as an independent nation within the Commonwealth. Ottawa is the capital and Toronto the largest city. Population： 31，600，000.-读书网|DuShu.com
