5.0 out of 5 stars
Good book from some who knows Guatemala,
By Alfonso Batres (Guatemala City, Guatemala) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Moon Handbooks: Guatemala (Paperback)
General Info: Introduction and On the Road section has general information about the country. These sections talk about History, Government, Economy and some other topics in good detail. It even gets into the issues like photographic etiquette and people customs, that are very important in a country like Guatemala.Places Info: It details the most important places to visit. It tells you what it's worth seeing and what not. Information is accurate and shows that the writer has spent very good time in Guatemala or doing research, just don't trust the movie theathers suggested in the book. Comments: The book seems to be written by a very informed author. Some of the stories told in the book show a great involvement in the culture and that the author really knew deep details about some places and events. It has very good side notes about interesting people, traditions, history and events.

This review is from: Moon Handbooks: Guatemala (Paperback)
This book is much too old (2001) and has almost nonexistent internet coverage. Hold off and buy the new, updated second edition of Moon Guatemala due out in September. It's written by a new author who is very familiar with Guatemala. See the link below:

Old but still valuable guide,

This review is from: Moon Handbooks: Guatemala (Paperback)
This book isn't like a Fodor or Frommer that put all the emphasis on Restaurants and hotels (the restaurants will probably no longer exist) It complements the lonely planet guide. Get it.
