Finding your way in Asheville, by Cecil Bothwell, Betsy Ball and Steve Shanafelt (Brave Ulysses Books, 2005) has been the best-selling guide to our fair city for three years. (okay, I'm bragging)
The 2009 edition of the best-selling guide to Asheville has just been released. Finding your way in Asheville-2009 is available at Malaprop's and online.

Right thanks, Cecil, I was sure I was missing some things as I checked my own library and publishers' websites. The next edition of Top 50 will include the Finding Your Way (of which I don't have a copy)--and Pure Bunkum. Somehow I missed that in my collection, but it would have made the list. /Rob
