3.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat Disappointing, December 29, 2008
I am a great fan of the main author of this book, Philip Briggs, and until now have found all Bradt guides written by him so good that I decided to buy any of his books without hesitation.

Unfortunately, this Mozambique guide is not quite the same quality as the others though.
To start with, it is pretty slim. For a huge country like Mozambique, it has almost the same page count as the guide to small Malawi, and is much slimmer than the guide to also smaller Uganda. As a consequence, it does not go into the same depth as other Bradt guides, and concentrates on popular beach spots and major cities/towns only.
Even Brigg's trademark detail on local fauna and national parks is conspiciously missing, with 2 of the country's (only) five national parks not even getting an entry in the book, other described very briefly in a few lines.
Nor will you find much info on remote regions or hiking.
Transport info is also spotty - detail on bus services is included for many small places, but not for several major towns like Beira or Tete! Almost no info on crossing to Mozambique overland from neighbouring countries either.
The list of recommended books for further reading seems almost a decade out of date, as do references throughout the guide to Zimbabwe as a popular tourist destinastion!

Oh well.
The info which is in the book is still interesting enough, and more than that contained in the other guide I carry, Lonely Planet's Southern Africa. I haven't had the chance to see LP's separate Mozambique guide, but I'd suggest you try and compare it with this book before deciding which one to buy!

4.0 out of 5 stars Practical and informative, August 16, 2006
By Ross (Sydney, Australia) - See all my reviews
The book contains a good overview of the history of Mozambique as well as useful hints for tourists in relation to money, customs, wildlife, etc. The provence by provence guide was very good.
