So you're most likely browsing travel sites, reading tons of content to plan your next trip.  One person's Shangri-La is another person's Detroit, plus those strange rating systems?  Not very helpful to me.  Go old school, read a book ... or at least look at the pictures.

NEW YORK (AP) — What's the best time of year to visit Tuscany? How about Sydney, La Paz or Antarctica?

A new coffee-table book from Eyewitness Travel, "Where to Go When: The Best Destinations All Year Round" ($40), is being promoted as the ultimate trip-planner. Whether you're an armchair traveler or a globetrotter, the book offers plenty of inspiration for a travel wish-list. It's loaded with beautiful, colorful photographs, descriptions, advice and other tidbits.
