Industry Reviews
Filled with information literally from cover to cover, this new comprehensive guidebook to Italy features a fresh approach that will be appreciated by all travelers interested in Italy as a destination. The publishers have used over 1400 color photographs, as well as high-quality color maps, 3-D aerial views of city sections, and cutaway models of museums, churches, and other landmarks. The book begins with a general introduction to Italy's location, history, and civilization. Next come 15 chapters on the various regions, as well as chapters for Rome, Florence, and Venice, highlighting the architectural styles, cuisine, and attractions. Finally, there are hotel and restaurant ratings by region and a practical information section. This guide will be of more use to independent travelers on a flexible schedule who want to experience it all and can afford to than to budget or tour group travelers. An excellent resource for itinerary planning, the encyclopedia allows one to find just the information desired. Highly recommended for all travel collections. William R. Smith, Johns Hopkins Univ. Lib., Baltimore

YA Today's students want pictures and more pictures, and they will not be disappointed with this series entry that provides similar coverage to standard travel guides. However, while other books describe a site or explain how to get there, Italy gives this information through maps, pictures, photographs, and cut-away drawings. Arranged by regions, it includes cities, villages, churches, food, museums, markets, and more. Many maps are illustrated so that armchair sightseers will know exactly what they would see on a visit. While visiting hours of tourist spots are listed, the costs, which are more likely to change, are not. All of the hotel and restaurant information is given in the back with prices shown in broad categories. Other material that will interest students planning a trip includes pictures of all the currency and directions for and pictures of telephone and rail-ticket machines. Claudia Moore, W. T. Woodson High School, Fairfax, VA
