1.Wild Swimming: 150 Hidden Dips in the Rivers, Lakes and Waterfalls of Britain by: Daniel Start April 21, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £14.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £13.49 You Save: £1.46 (10%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £8.68
I really love this book! It's a real joy to read and the photographs are wonderful. It's also a very practical guide and I found it really easy to visit one of the beautiful 'hidden dips' this weekend. It's going to be my essential guide to summer! I'd recommend it to everyone.

2.Russia: A Journey to the Heart of a Land and Its People by: Jonathan Dimbleby May 01, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £25.00 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £13.00 You Save: £12.00 (48%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £12.00
After quick first reading I have found how difficult it could be for a West foreigner to learn Russia without more or less good knowledge of Russian language. That is good lesson for Russian authorities if especially they want to attract investments more actively and thus to reopen the country, make it easier to be understood. In many aspects, the book is full with illusions and stereotypes. The author as a representative of older generation tries to find answers for questions which have been relevant to this audience. This book heads into wrong direction. Worst of all, such the attitude is very close to position of official London. For example, the author describes Mikhail Khodorkovsky as a man who "worked to create genuine ... Read More:

3.MOT Atlas France A4 spiral (Michelin Tourist & Motoring Atlases) (Michelin Tourist & Motoring Atlases) by: Michelin January 02, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £12.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £8.44 You Save: £4.55 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £7.49
I compared the Michelin A4 guide against other guides. To me the Michelin guide is much more detailed, and is a perfect size for the car Also saved £4.55 through Amazon to the RRP, and received it the day after ordering it, even though I'd selected the free postage option - great service.

4.Italy (Lonely Planet Country Guide) by: Damien Simonis, et al February 01, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £15.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £7.99 You Save: £8.00 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £7.45
This is a good guide book, as all the guide books in the series, but I did expect a bit more from it. I travelled around Italy together with my husband the summer of 2005, and we used this guide book a lot. But it is a guide book, nothing more. There are quite a bit of things that have changed since the book was last edited, but this is expected. We are planning to send the findings we did to the editor, so that it can be added or changed in the next edition, perhaps. We felt that the book focused too much on churches, castles etc, and a lot of really interesting things were missed - like the local food markets, which we love to visit. There wasn't much of "different" or "special" recommendations, it was just focusing on the "What to see if you are ... Read More:

6.Cool Camping: France (Cool Camping): France (Cool Camping) by: Nicola Williams, Keith Didcock, Sam Pow, Paul Sullivan April 01, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £14.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £11.91 You Save: £3.04 (20%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £7.99
When my book came through the post and flicked through the pages, I actually started juming about and screaming!!! The pictures are so amazing. I was in so much excitement about the holiday I am going on this summer. I am going cycle touring in France, and this book is going to become my bible. Infact I was so impressed by it, I planned my whole route so that I could pick up as many campsites as possible. Trust me, the campsites are totally stunning, well thats if you think stunning is beautiful, rural, and peaceful campsites with breath taking views!

7.Pies and Prejudice: In Search of the North by: Stuart Maconie February 07, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £6.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.22 You Save: £2.77 (40%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £0.98
There were pages I skipped in this book out of sheer irritation at his socialist, BBC politics; and others I have marked up to remind me to visit or revisit some of the places in the North this southern girl loves. His prejudice against the south is foolish and stereotyped; and his rants against middle class pursuits, whilst so obviously now being middle class himself, is blind hypocrisy. But, I would say it all adds to the charm of the book. If you want to get into the head of a northern working class lad, who became a middle class, southern media type complete with PC bias - then this is an illuminating piece of social history in its own right. As a travel guide it is very patchy: it goes into great depth about West Lancashire ... Read More:

Always been a very big fan of Lonely Planet guides... they have helped me round India, Nepal, Pakistan, France, Italy and Ireland. As my old copy is pre-Euro I thought I'd get a new up to date copy. Wish I hadn't. I've been looking at the Paris section... we are taking our children and I was interested in Parc d'Asterix... no mention. Several pages on Disney. Lots of other destinations on our 'tick list' are missing. Nice photography as ever, and the usual clear concise style. I realise they cna't put everything in the guide but these are major omissions. Not recommended. Sorry Lonely Planet!

10.Europe on a Shoestring: Big Trips on Small Budgets (Lonely Planet Shoestring Guides) by: Sarah Johnstone March 01, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £15.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £7.99 You Save: £8.00 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £12.73
This is the second lonely planet book that I have bought, the first being south East Asia which I found invaluable. The book is a little big not exactly pocket size BUT it can answers nearly everything you need to know without giving too much away so you still get the adventure. Packed full of places to see, phone numbers, where to go for emergency help. Ratings for hostels and much more All in all this is a great book and I am looking forward to using it later this year when I go travelling Spain & France on my Motorbike. Scott
