As others have said you have to write the book as you see it coming together. I agree that a "how to " approach has been done and you should write it the way you want. I wouldn't worry about "spot burning" you're selling this book after all, if you want to talk about certain spots you're welcome too since people are paying for this. On the other hand I doubt there will be many people wandering around the beaches of the block with book in hand looking for X marks the spot. For the most part people want to be entertained and maybe learn something if it's convenient. Write it however you want I'm sure it will be awesome!
