On my trip to Italy I found this book VERY unhelpful. The maps were not detailed enough and while in Florence I noticed at least 3 other groups of American tourists all of us looking for the same Let's Go restaurant that did not seem to exist, this was after looking for another recommended restaurant whose street did not seem to exist. I would not recommend this book.

I got this book based on its excellent reviews in preparation for a semester in Italy. Usually I choose Lonely Planet or the Rough Guides for travelling, and now I wish I had stuck to those. The book is difficult to read and its attitude makes me angry every time I open it. I feel like it doesn't have very much history or background, and putting prices for every attraction in parenthesis in the text is distracting. Not only that, it doesn't really say anything new -- you are left with information about the boring central tourist attractions, and no way to escape the herds.
