.Eat Pray Love
City Travel Guides > Books > Europe
by: Elizabeth Gilbert

January 30, 2007
Driven to despair by a punishing divorce and an anguished love affair, Gilbert is left in a state of depression. In an attempt to get her life back on tract she goes to Italy to learn the language and revel in their cuisine, to India to meditate in an ashram, and to Bali Indonesia to reconnect with a healer that she had previous contact with.

This novelist journalist chronicles her intrepid quest for spiritual healing throughout her year of travels, documenting a memoir of her journey and experiences in order to find balance in her life. Not everyone will relate or agree in her methods. Gilbert's over descriptive narrative can be boring at times as she talks a lot about nothing. This book is shallow and superficial, a ranting tale ... Read More:

.Rick Steves' Paris
City Travel Guides > Books > Europe
by: Rick Steves

October 10, 2007
I'd just like to make a comment and correct some assumptions made by other reviewers. His statement about America bringing "peace, prosperity, and democracy" to Iraq under the "benevolent" guidance of Bush is sarcastic. If you look on his webpage, you will see several political essays by Rick Steves, and find out that he is very much against the war in Iraq, and also very much a liberal. That being said, I did not really notice any overly-liberal comments in the book. That was the only political comment I read, in fact - and I was just as shocked as previous readers until I decided to do some Google searching on Steves's political opinions. He does joke around a bit.

Now that that's out of the way, I found this book to be extremely informative. ... Read More:

This book offers engaging information and useful tidbits. It's more upscale than "Let's Go," but at 800 pages, offers more complete listings. It includes sets of attractive colored pictures. The maps are in black and white but very detailed. This guide provides practical information designed to get you around Greece. It includes information on ferry time tables and offers a range of places to stay and dine.
