Having just returned from my first visit to Turkey I can only agree with the negative comments voiced by other reviewers. The general tone veers between sneering at the reality of turkish society and derision of anything that remotely relates to the general tourist. All this would be bad enough were the text not hopelessly out of date. Selecting a couple of examples at random from an extraordinary list of errors; Descriptions of the Bodrum penisula include references to sailing schools in Bitez. Guys! - all the schools moved further round the peninsua at least 3 years ago.

2.The Rough Guide to Turkey, 5th edition by: Rosie Ayliffe, Marc Dubin, John Gawthrop, Terry Richardson June 26, 2003
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £1.84
I have just returned from 3 weeks travelling around Turkey using the Rough Guide along the way. I have used, and been happy with, Rough Guides on previous trips around Europe and the Middle East but was really disappointed with this guide.

3.Istanbul (Eyewitness Travel Guides) by: Nick Inman April 16, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £2.46
Whilst not as comprehensive as some guides (eg Lonely Planet) or containing as much historical detail as others (The Imperial City - John Freely), this guide is the best all-round introduction to a wonderful city. Both photographically and visually it is inspiring and the text is accurate and sensible. It also contains some of the easiest to read maps of Istanbul I have seen. Highly recommended, whether you are planning to visit or not, you will enjoy this book.
