       Tourist guides i wouldn't trust too much for most things other than 
the most beautiful things to see.....i don;t see much info in italian tourist 
books about the gypsy children that grab purses and jewlery and wallets while 
their parents watch, because the kids are 100% immune to the law.......
       I for one would buy a location source book if it was a good one and 
reasonabley priced.  I do not fall into the "buy-everything-because-i-have 
to-have-it-all" crowd...though i can see them through the fence=)
       Road maps and tourist guides scratch the surface, i want to see the 
whole thing
