1.0 out of 5 stars Good subject, poor execution, April 30, 2009
By Bernard Higonnet (Paris, France) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Not a well-organized book.

Map of Italy shows no monasteries in Sicily (though there's plenty of room), while map of "Italy South" shows two, one of which, "Gibilmanna" on the map is listed under its real name "Convento Cappuccini" which is a bit difficult to guess. What's the point of a map if you must read the entire text to find a place listed on the map?

There is much useless filler material in this book such as how to get to Sicily by train (repeated verbatim for each monastery in Sicily). There is almost nothing on flights, ships, buses, cars.
