This review is from: Frommers Greece from $50 a Day (7th Ed.) (Paperback)
Frommer (may he rest in peace) was the pioneer of budget travel books. He has now been overtaken by other writers for the impecunious and his epigones do not have his wit and originality - they write in humorlesss cliches. It's worth buying all the books you can because even budget travel to Europe is a major expense. I think he devotes to much space to restaurant reviews in places where there are rows of restaurants with their prices and menus on display. Hotel reviews are more useful. Budget travel books have to be bang up-to-date and this one has a 1998 publication date. A 2001 edition for the Islands is promised. No illustrations except maps.
