It was only sevenyears ago that we printed our first Register, anoff-shoot of Norman T. Simpson's well-readCountry Inns and Back Roads travel book. Dur-ing that time our Register has developed into ahighly respected source for country inn ac-commodations across America as well as inCanada and Great Britain. With the recentaddition of color, the pictures of the Inns pro-vide a more pleasant experience for the trav-eler who is selecting that special destination.As further assistance for that process, this yearwe have added another aid for identification forall of our Inns, our Style, Location, and TypeDescriptors. At the end of the paragraph whichdescribes the individual inn, you will find (inparentheses) three single-word descriptors.These words are a universal and concise key tothe Style, Location, and Type of Inn depicted bythe information about that Inn. Additionally,we have included the year in which that Innfirst became a member of our Association. Allof this information will hopefully help guideyou to the accommodations you want.
