The travel sections of most bookstores, particularly the larger ones, are awash in books about Italy, and in particular, the region of Tuscany. This is clearly too much of a excellent thing; take 10 of these books—-and there must be closer to 20 of them—-and you will find much duplication. How is a traveler, particularly the first-time traveler to central Italy, to know which guides are helpful and which merely rehash information that has been available for many years? One of the problems is that many of the guides issue a new edition each year in an apparent attempt to render last year’s guide obsolete. Nonsense! I have some travel guides that are 15 years ancient and are still valuable. Keep in mind that the Etruscans were in Tuscany well over 2,000 years ago; their monuments and culture is not going to change much between 2007 and 2008.
In fleeting, this book serves a purpose but so do many others with similar titles.

This book is packed with information but it’s hard to follow. Too much information is not automatically helpful. Expected a suggested travel plot as a replacement for of the way it is organized. By the time I was through scanning the guide, the trip seemed like it was in the ‘too hard to do’ box.

My spouse and I are free spirit travelers that like to keep the preparation to some extent spontaneous, yet still have enough preparation to get the most from the experience. We loved this book for providing enough history and background to provide context for the experiene. Plus this book (along with the help of a fantastic GPS system) was fantastic for mapping and preparation the day. I really used a acquaintances books for our trip and thought they were so fantastic that I bought a copy for myself as a keepsake for when we returned.

We used this guide and establish it to be brilliant. We had several guides but this was the most perfect and simple to use.
