The start of something special
I recently first spied this new series of guides in the hands of a couple I had lunch with in London.

I saw the Rome guide in a book store -- I thought "A guide combined with a map -- what a great idea!" The map has major sites marked on a very colorful, graphically pleasing map. Each site is clearly labled and you can read a summary description on the other folds of the map. Cool...right?! Not if you get lost. This is a general map. It has major streets marked on it. If you actually find yourself on any side street in Rome, it is unhelpful. (Rome is *full* of crooked little side streets). This is not "The Only Guide You Need". You need to obtain an accurate map of Rome.
