3.0 out of 5 stars Rough Guide is a Little Rough, January 11, 2002

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Rough Guide to Barbados (Paperback)
I bought this because the book touted itself as a way to find those out of the way places that the usual travel books don't tell you about.

I have read this book, and I learned nothing new -- no restaurants, accommodations, attractions, etc. that I hadn't known about already. So in this regard it was a disappointment.

However, it is a good basic primer about things Barbadian. There are, however, some good, detailed maps. It is also a "pocket" book, small in size, so you could easily bring it with you to Barbados and use as a reference.

However, I also read Harry P.'s book on Barbados. It is much more thorough and also pretty portable. In my opinion, if you need one book on Barbados, this one probably wouldn't be it.
