Review:
With quick wit and polished flourish, this guide reads like an Italy lover's detailed travel journal. To make planning your trip less daunting, Frommer's Italy 98 begins with a collection of alluring lists that helps narrow your choices to only the very best. These include "The Most Romantic Getaways," "The Best Museums," "The Best Wineries," "The Best Buys," and "The Best Travel Experiences."

"Italy is a feast for the senses and the intellect, and some of the country's most thrilling experiences involve the simple act of living in the Italian style. Although the country is literally stuffed with the potential for memorable experiences, here's an abbreviated list of some that are, by anyone's estimate, spectacular ... Celebrating Mass in St. Peter's ... Attending an Opera ... Reliving the Grand Tour...," to name a few.

Frommer's excellent two-color maps make it a snap to locate a restaurant, hotel, or Roman ruin. And the detailed, cross-referenced index makes it equally simple to navigate around the book. For larger cities, the lodgings and food listings are organized by neighborhood, so it's easier to locate a nearby meal at the end of a long day of touring.

The fact-filled "Getting to Know Italy" chapter provides an encapsulated history, current affairs, a guide to Italian art and architecture, cuisine, as well as a brief overview of each region. --Kathryn True
