Reader Reviews:
Stunning guide to a stunning country (7/7 people found this helpful)
I love these guides - they're the sort that I keep long after I have travelled to a place rather than discarding them as I do with many other brands (that seem to easily become dated and look dog-eared).
The Eyewitness guides are stunning books with plenty of beautiful photos and detailed writing about not just the areas but also the history and culture of places. Infact, I have bought some just because I am interested in looking at and learning about a place even if I haven't been there yet.
With regards to this edition, I did live in Israel for 2 years (back in the early 90's, after Uni) and so I bought this copy as I still have a passion for the region. I can't comment on the accuracy of this recent edition as it is a long time since I was there, but going from memory, the detail confirms most of what I remember and I'm sure that there have been many changes and additions since then. Even so, I would highly recommend this book for the visuals alone. These are the sort of travel guides that you can treasure and look through without having to be planning a day out or a restaurant trip etc. I, personally, have got my moneys worth for the times I have looked through my copy (and reminissed).
Highly recommended.
