"We're going to Italy!" has such a pleasant ring to it--but the devil is in the details. There's so much to see and experience that there's no way you can do it all in one lifetime, let alone one trip. So you need to make choices, and for that you need reliable information, and for that you need Frommer's 2000 Italy. Darwin Porter and Danforth Prince are a sterling travel-guide team: Porter wrote Frommer's first-ever Italy guide and has been back many times since, and Prince, formerly of the Paris bureau of the New York Times, has lived and traveled extensively in Italy. Their work pays off in a guide that's thorough, accessible, and dependable.
The "Best of Italy" section lists museums, romantic getaways, cathedrals, restaurants, ruins, and countryside drives, and the "Regions in Brief" chapter helps you set your priorities and make some destination choices. After setting your itinerary comes the fun part: reading up on the hotels, restaurants, sights, and activities in the cities or regions you'll be visiting; learning about Italy's history, art, architecture, and food; practicing a bit of basic Italian vocabulary--and best of all, actually going on the trip itself. --Stephanie Gold
