2.0 out of 5 stars I hope my trip to Greece is more colorful than this book, October 17, 2006

By	Thomas A. Williamson "Tom" (Winter Haven, FL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We bought this book to plan our Spring trip. The colorful cover is the only color included. And there were only two photographs in the entire 600 pages. We looked up several cities and historical figures who were mentioned on the History channel and they are not in the index. We saw no suggestions how to visit the Greek Isles if only having a trip for a week or two. The Parthenon is mentioned on two pages with no hints or suggestions how to visit. It is written from an encyclopedia as if they have never visited.
We have not studied the book so our review is limited. We hope our next guide has more information.
