Customer Reviews

A bit too wordy

I love travel books. Descriptions in this one are about 3 pages of words per place, about 40 places in the book. I think I prefer about 1 page of words and 2 pages of pictures per place. Most of the things are in the category of 'that sounds like a very fun, but hard to arrange, vacation I will never take'. Nevertheless I enjoyed it. The focus is on things to do, not places to see. Pictures are so-so given the places that are being shown.

Forget the esoteric pretentiousness this is a good book!

Rather than waffle on with some self-indulgent, up myself faux esoteric claptrap to try to make myself look and feel important, I will address the book in question. Its good, very good. There are some teriffic photos here and the authors have managed to convey the atmosphere of many of the places.
