4.0 out of 5 stars More should have been put into the printing., October 20, 2008

By	Lily White (Illinois) - See all my reviews

This is the sort of book that I love. Vignettes of things not always
found in other, more typical, travel books. Out of the way places
with photos.

But there is something wrong with the printing. And I'm not sure that
I know exactly what it is. Either the coloring on the photos is too harsh or the type isn't quite right, or maybe even the paper is wrong. I really don't know. But it appears that, because there is an Unexpected Italy, they might be making a series of books, I would hope that they make these corrections to make the books even more appealing. It is not
an attempt to dissuade people from purchasing the books.
