. Rick Steves' Switzerland (Rick Steves)
City Travel Guides > Books > Europe
by: Rick Steves
March 28, 2008
I bought Rick Steve bcoz of the hype... apparently, this is a starter book, gives the basics. Rick Steve ignores Gstaad as a touristy town, but if you skip those few streets which are indeed touristy, this place has one of the most beautiful panoramic landscapes in Switzerland. Gstaad region is the main highlight of the Golden pass rail between Zweisimmen and Montreaux.
Gimmelwald depicts a true Swiss village, beautiful place portrayed well in his book.
I strongly suggest going over the forums on Trip Advisor for reviews and lodging information.

. Great Britain (EYEWITNESS TRAVEL GUIDE)
City Travel Guides > Books > Europe
by: DK Publishing
March 20, 2006
DK's "Eyewitness Travel Guide Great Britain" is another in a terrific series of regularly-revised, comprehensive travel books. This guide is a colorful, well-arranged, and fascinating source of just the kind of detailed infromation needed to plan to a good vacation or business trip to Great Britain.
"Great Britain" opens up with maps and a short history lesson, then proceeds to cover the country by region, beginning with London, the UK's great city and most frequently visited location. The guide then works its way around England, Wales, and Scotland before closing out with some practical general information on arriving in and traveling around Britain, along with suggestions for places to stay and eat.
Each regional ... Read More:

. Top 10 Athens (EYEWITNESS TOP 10 TRAVEL GUIDE)
City Travel Guides > Books > Europe
by: DK Publishing
January 21, 2008
(I wanted to make it 4 stars, but goofed and now can't seem to change it.)
This sounds like a gimmick, but is a surprisingly useful guide, especially given its compact size and low price. The concept of the top 10 list is used to organize information on the most important or interesting things to see. For each item on the top 10 there is a brief paragraph and a marker on a tiny map.
The book is useful for two reasons. First the little paragraphs are well written, giving you key information in a small space. Secondly, they use the top-10 concept in creative ways, so you get the top 10 for Athens of which the Acropolis is number one. But then they give you a top-10 for the Acropolis that allows them to drill down to fairly ... Read More:

. Round Ireland with a Fridge
City Travel Guides > Books > Europe
by: Tony Hawks
March 07, 2001
I enjoyed this book about Tony's adventures in Ireland. Like the cover says--he made a drunken bet no one expected him to keep, kept it anyway, and ended up with this adventure.
I, and several others in my bookclub, have no desire to see the stand up comedian in person. He didn't really come off as a funny guy in the book, particularly because he bombed both times he had a chance to show his stuff, but the book is delightful because it is peopled with quirky unforgettable characters and there's a wry humor in the writing.
SPOILER:
Tony's success in getting around Ireland with the fridge was definitely due to the call-in radio show that followed him from the beginning. He hardly struggled to hitch. Or find a place to sleep. ... Read More:
