Amazon.com Review

Some think nothing of hopping a flight to Paris or London; it's like returning to an old friend. Prague is different, though. You've heard from friends that it's spectacular, but it's still an unknown. So let Ted Brewer take you by the hand and introduce you to the glories of the Czech Republic's capital, with its palaces, castles, turrets and towers, cobblestone courtyards, and bridges of yore. Brewer knows his chateaux, but he also knows about Czech beer, duck dinners, and fruit-filled dessert dumplings, Prague pubs, marionette operas, and productions of Don Giovanni as performed in the very theater in which Mozart premiered it in 1787. Add to this Brewer's many lodging and eating options, his museum and history savvy, and the various excursions into the Bohemian countryside, and a trip to Prague doesn't seem scary anymore.
