3.0 out of 5 stars
French language versions are more comprehensive than English language versions,
By me "me" (Sunnyvale, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Michelin The Green Guide Burgundy/Jura (Michelin Green Guides) (Paperback)
If you do or do not have French language reading comprehension, take note. This English language edition has only half the material available in the French language edition. The corresponding French edition comes in two separate bindings: (1) Le Guide Vert Bourgogne and (2) Le Guide Vert Jura/Franche-Comte.
The choice of English vs French edition may then be a choice of Compact vs Comprehensive. It is hard not to put a 5 star rating down, because this really is the best and there really is no substitute choice. However, if you are bilingual, there is a choice and then it is a toss-up. There are some difficulties in using this book still. It is a good basic guidebook in any case, more detailed than any Lonely Planet or Rick Steves travel book. It is outstanding if you are planning a road trip in a car. Like other most recent editions of the Green Guides, this is a pain though, because it is not well indexed, so you really need to study it well beforehand to know where to find things. It is a good companion to the Michelin Local Series 1:200,000 or larger scale maps 319 (western Bourgogne with no Beaune), 320 (eastern Bourgogne with Beaune) & 321 (Jura). |
