Great Book for Italy Travel 
We used this book on our recent trip to Italy and it saved us a lot of Time and Money. Recommend this to anyone planning a trip to Italy.

"Rick Steves Most of Italy 2008" - he amputated the "foot". 
Don't buy this if you expect to find information on the southern Italian mainland. The map at the front of this book sums up its disappointing lack of coverage of southern Italy.

So .... no Lecce, no Matera, no Otranto - there's absolutely nothing on Puglia. Truncated map = truncated coverage. The title should be "Rick Steves Most... more info

Rick Steves Italy 2008 
Mr. Steves supplies a wealth of information for MOST of Italy, but unfortunately for those of us who desire to see Southern Italy, the book is not helpful. I would also like to suggest that Mr. Steves refrain from denigrating U.S. tourists. Many of us are well-seasoned travellers and can enjoy other cultures without the immature lectures offered by Steves.

Very limited coverage 
What this guide covers it covers well but be forewarned that the title is a misnomer. Much of Italy is missing. Italy south of the Amalfi Coast on the West, nope. South of Ravenna on the Adriatic, nope. Sicily, nope. Sardinia, nope. To avoid disappointment make sure this guide covers the parts of Italy you plan to visit before you buy it.
