Title: Excellent guide book

Rating: 2.0 out of 5 stars
Title: This is NOT the best of Italy!
Review: If you are looking for any information on Southern Italy, do not get this book. There is nothing on Naples, Pompeii, the Amalfi Coast, etc. in this book. Nothing South of Rome.

Reviewer: optmystkPB
Rating: 2.0 out of 5 stars
Title: Very disappointed it doesn't cover many areas of interest in Italy
Review: It should say on the cover that it only covers three areas in Italy

Reviewer: Michael R. Conway
Rating: 1.0 out of 5 stars
Title: Half the country is missing
Review: Upon receiving the book, we learned that “The best of Italy” ignored half the country. I knew they recently had an election, but didn’t realize Amalfi, Pompei, Sardinia, and Sicily had seceded from the country. They may want to rename this book.

Review: Good value for the price

Rating: 1.0 out of 5 stars
Title:
Review: It's divided per areas, rather than what is there to see per city. This makes it difficult to figure out sights and where they are and what is there to see. The whole point is it should be user friendly and for people who arw not familiar with the area. I have to keep checking on google maps for the area and then seeing what is where. Not found anything that isn't on Google either. Not worth the money and wish I hadn't bought it.
