I found this book useful, but the more recent (2004) "South America on a Shoestring" had more up to date information about hostels, bars etc while retaining most of the necessary details about these countries.

.Lonely Planet : Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay
City Travel Guides > Books > Paraguay and Uruguay
by: Wayne Bernhardson

1999-11
I have close ties with the author of the book, and he is a highly intelligent man. As for the book, it helped me enourmously while traveling in Paraguay, and most of the information is very accurate. If some of it is inaccurate, then I assume it was because they changed after he wrote it. Over all it was extremely helpful.

.Paradise with Serpents: Travels in the Lost World of Paraguay
City Travel Guides > Books > Paraguay and Uruguay
by: Robert Carver

September 03, 2007
Having read this book before my visit to Asuncion in Paraguay, I began to have second thoughts about actually going ! The author paints a picture in his book of a land full of bandits, desparado's, gun-toting gangsters and mafiaso.

The reality was very different and at no time during my visit to Asuncion did I feel threatened. Travelling on the public buses was a pleasure and not the grim and dangerous experience which the author describes. I consider that the author was more concerned when writing this book to create an image of himself as some bold and daring adventurer who dares go where others fear to tread.

If you are considering visiting Paraguay, do not waste your money on this 'fantasy'.
