all but completely uselessJul 14, 2004
This is one of the least useful travel guidebooks I have ever purchased.
*the routes are difficult to follow because they are vague at times (if you've ever driven the Italian countryside, you know that detailed directions are a must),
*the descriptive paragraphs about each stop offer too little information and are sometimes unreliable (their description of the interior of San Lorenzo in Perugia, for example, made me wonder if I was in the wrong church),
*and, worst of all, there are NO food or lodging recommendations included. I would have appreciated any hint at all as to whether or not a great little caffe or trattoria was hiding in any of the stops on the itineraries, but you have to buy a second book for that information. A very disappointing purchase.
