Summary: A read before you go book
Comment: My husband gave me this book for Christmas before we went to Venice and it was a great help planning our trip. I read it at least 4 times and used it to plan our walks through the city. If you are interested in art and architecture (why go to Venice if you are not?) this is the book to plan your days in Venice. My husband particularly liked the fact that Mr. Links understood the importance of stopping in a cafe to savor the city on each walk!

Summary: Great prep for seeing a great city
Comment: My husband ordered this book for me last Christmas in preparation for our trip to Venice. It was an enjoyable read and the walks laid out in the book were an excellent way to see Venice. Note: the hand drawn maps in the book are good but Venice is a very confusing city and I photocopied parts of a good map (with all the streets named) and highlighted the walks on the copies - this proved invaluable for keeping on track! I highly recommend this book to anyone as general reading to get in the mood for the trip or to follow Mr. Links on his 4 walks.

Summary: Whimsical and Charming
Comment: This book features wonderful history and walking tours in Venice, shared by a writer with a tremendous love for Venice the city. The author hopes that this trip you're making is just one of many, so you can spend more time sitting at an outdoor restaurant, rather than rushing to the next museum. You can always catch that museum on another trip--stay outside and soak in the romance of Venice itself. I have taken this book with me on my several visits to Venice, and try to follow his advice. You'll want to have another "standard" guide to the city, but don't forget this small gem.
