3.0 out of 5 stars Little Bits of Everything, March 2, 2001

By	"leroy93" (Palm Springs, CA) - See all my reviews

Although a fine overall introduction to the U.A.E., the work understandably bogs down in the more traditional tourist centers of Dubai and Abu Dabhi. Since the city of Al Ain has grown so substantially so quickly, perhaps the lack of current information is forgiveable. Compared to other guides, this is still among the best. Fine photos and maps.
