1.0 out of 5 stars all but completely useless, July 14, 2004
By W. Mate "I love books" (Beverly Hills, CA USA) - See all my reviews
  
This is one of the least useful travel guidebooks I have ever purchased.

*the routes are difficult to follow because they are vague at times (if you've ever driven the Italian countryside, you know that detailed directions are a must),
*the descriptive paragraphs about each stop offer too little information and are sometimes unreliable (their description of the interior of San Lorenzo in Perugia, for example, made me wonder if I was in the wrong church),
*and, worst of all, there are NO food or lodging recommendations included.

I would have appreciated any hint at all as to whether or not a great little caffe or trattoria was hiding in any of the stops on the itineraries, but you have to buy a second book for that information.

A very disappointing purchase.
