Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Barcelona (Berlitz Pocket Guides) (Hardcover)
This book is a great ENGLISH guide book, so you can disregard the two previous reviewers comments. They were not commenting on the book itself, but reporting a problem in Amazon's system that has obviously been corrected. Reviews are meant for reviewing the product, not to report ISBN issues to Amazon which can be done another way....
