Paris (Mini City Guides)

Childrens Toy Shop > Travel > Cadogan Guides
by: Dana Facaros, Michael Pauls

April 17, 2007
The Cadogan guides are THE best travel books. And the series on France written by Facaros and Pauls (Provence, Paris, The South of France etc) are amongst the best of the best. Okay, enough hyperbole. If you are a francophile, appreciate good - no, excellent (sorry, enough gushing...) - writing, a real insider's viewpoint and the kind of guidebook to offer masses of info, not just glossy pictures and thumbnail sketches, this book (indeed this series) is for you. Go no further, add this to your 'shopping basket' now.

Sicily (Cadogan Guide Sicily)

by: Dana Facaros, Michael Pauls

March 20, 2006
This book is good to have as a supplement to a more complete guidebook - on its own it is not a very useful guidebook. For many of the entries, they provide useful historical or contextual information, but the pratical is limited. For instance, they mention natural springs that are must sees in one town, but give no information about them at all. Don't rly on this book alone.

Italy ("Sunday Times" Working & Living)

Childrens Toy Shop > Travel > Cadogan Guides
by: Kate Carlisle

September 27, 2007
A guide to working and living in Italy is a useful book for many people so this title would be a welcome addition to the many similar guides already on the market - if only it contained some correct information. Reading through the chapters, I was struck by how often the author seems to make up "facts" without bothering to check. Just to take two examples from one of the more general chapters, that on the Italian language
- The author claims that Italian isn't an official language in any other country in the world. The population in neighbouring Switzerland will be surprised to hear it, as Italian definitely IS an official language of the country.
- Even stranger is the author's claim that the North Italian dialects are Celtic!! Celtic, ... Read More:
