It would be difficult to imagine more thorough travel guides than the offerings in this series. Indeed, Athens contains all you could possibly want to know about the Greek capital and environs, and much, much more. The supersufficiency of information could almost be a drawback for those seeking their facts in a hurry. Every conceivable aspect of Athenian culture, geography, and history is treated in text prepared by numerous specialists as well as academicians. Numerous excellent, highly detailed maps guide the tourist-traveler through the fabled sites within and around the city, with itineraries for walking tours provided for such attractions as the Acropolis, the Agora, and the port of Piraeus. Also covered are Cape Sounion, Corinth, Delphi, and islands of the Saronic Gulf. Superb photos and schematic drawings everywhere enhance the text but sometimes suffer from being too small. Recommended for public libraries.
