ABOUT THE FROMMER TRAVEL GUIDES

For most of the past 50 years, Frommers has been the leading series of travel guides in North America, accounting for as many as 24% of all guidebooks sold. I think I know why.

Though we hope our books are entertaining, we nevertheless deal with travel in a serious fashion. Our guidebooks have never looked on such journeys as a mere recreation, but as a far more important human function, a time of learning and introspection, an essential part of a civilized life. We stress the culture, lifestyle, history and beliefs of the destinations we cover, and urge our readers to seek out people and new ideas as the chief rewards of travel.

We have never shied from controversy. We have, from the beginning, encouraged our authors to be intensely judgmental, criticalboth pro and conin their comments, and wholly independent. Our only clients are our readers, and we have triggered the ire of countless prominent sorts, from a tourist newspaper we called practically worthless (it unsuccessfully sued us) to the many rip-offs weve condemned.

And because we believe that travel should be available to everyone regardless of their incomes, we have always been cost-conscious at every level of expenditure. Though we have broadened our recommendations beyond the budget category, we insist that every lodging we include be sensibly priced. We use every form of media to assist our readers, and are particularly proud of our feisty daily website, the award-winning Frommers.com.

I have high hopes for the future of Frommers. May these guidebooks, in all the years ahead, continue to reflect the joy of travel and the freedom that travel represents. May they always pursue a cost-conscious path, so that people of all incomes can enjoy the rewards of travel. And may they create, for both the traveler and the persons among whom we travel, a community of friends, where all human beings live in harmony and peace.

I f the province of Qubec had a tagline, it could be: Any excuse for a party. An enormous joie de vivre pervades the way that Montral and Qubec City go about their business. The calendars of both cities are packed with festivals and events that bring out both locals and guests from around the world year-round.

Montral is a modern city with pizzazz at every turn. Downtown skyscrapers come in unexpected shapes and non-corporate colors. Theres a beautifully preserved historic district, Vieux-Montral (Old Montral), and a subway system (Mtro) thats modern and swift. And the citys creative inhabitants provide zest to the ever-changing neighborhoods of Plateau Mont-Royal and Mile End, large neighborhoods of artists lofts, boutiques, cafes, and miles of restaurantsmany of which are unabashedly clever and stylish.

Qubec City, more traditional and more French, is replacing its former conservatism with sophistication and playfulness. With an impressive location above the St. Lawrence River and carefully tended 18th- and 19th-century houses in its historic quartier, this city is almost impossibly romanticand unlike any other in North America.

Romantic Qubec City

Every narrow street, leafy plaza, sidewalk cafe, horse-drawn calche, pitched roof, and church spire breathes recollections of Frances provincial towns. But to get the full Qubec City treatment, amble those streets in the evening and find a bench on Terrasse Dufferin, the promenade alongside the Chteau Frontenac. The river below will be the color of liquid mercury in the moons glow, and on a clear night, youll see a sky of stars. Faint music from the
