Useful for quick background research. Definitely targeted to a specific, crunchy audience - most fully revealed in the list of Essentials. You have to decide if you are part of that group. It’s often somewhat less useful because of its lack of an index that would be helpful when looking for a specific location.

Great as all the rough guides.

This is a regular travel guide. I don't think it is any better than the others.
