The Berkshire Hills and Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusetts: An Explorer's Guide, 3rd Ed.
Christina Tree and William Davis
Seasoned travel writers Christina Tree and William Davis tell all you need to know about these naturally beautiful and culturally rich areas. They offer opinionated reviews of the best places to stay and to eat, from four-star restaurants to diners. They also describe Berkshire County's must-see performing arts festivals and the outstanding museums scattered throughout this surprisingly varied region. They lead you across the Mohawk Trail and along numerous other scenic drives to orchards and antiques shops, wineries and waterfalls, nature preserves and ridge paths, artists, craftspeople and family attractions.
Christina Tree first wrote about this region as a student at Mount Holyoke College
and has since described it in many articles for the Boston Globe and Yankee Magazine Travel Guide. She is also the coauthor of Explorer’s Guides to ME, NH, and VT.
William Davis, also a contributor to the Boston Globe, was that newspaper’s travel
editor for 20 years. They live in Cambridge, MA.
"Two canny Boston Globe authors . . . reveal so many of Massachusetts' secret delights."
New York Daily News
"Christina Tree uses her travels and experience to create a long-overdue guide to what makes western and central Massachusetts special. She uncovers the real charm of our towns and countryside in a way few travel writers have."
