Summary: THese are real writers
Comment: This guidebook is not only erudite and extremely well written, but it is also a quirky and opinionated look at one of the strangest places in Europe, Sicily. We took this book and used it so much that I cannot imagine making the trip without it. The talent of these writers, in my opinion as a writer, is better than that of any other travel writers I know, indeed better than many journalists. The result is a funny and absolutely first-rate guide, far better than the usual generic things out there.
Get it. You won't be disappointed!

Summary: A good all-around guide to the island
Comment: I just got back from my honeymoon in Sicily and I used this guide as well as one or two others. The book helped me with some interesting tips on restaurants and out-of-the-way places, as well as finding me a really nice hotel in Siracusa--something that made our stay there one of the nicest parts of our trip. A little light on maps if you're driving or like detail in your maps, but overall this guide was an asset on my trip.

Summary: Best written travel guide I've seen.
Comment: More perceptive sense of place than any of the standard guidebook series, with witty histories one wants to read. Less discussion of precautions than student or Lonely, Rough guides, needed for completeness. I recognize those places I've been, and they've found each favorite spot I had to dig to locate. They describe how to stay with locals on remote islands where other books can only suggest you bring a tent.
Beautifully printed hip-pocket paperback, complete with an
(unattributed) "Italian oldstyle" typeface confirming these are the most cleanly attractive and readable typefaces ever
designed.
