Review

Vast in size and history, with equally vast potential for rewarding experiences and red-tape hassles, Africa more than any other continent requires a solid and reliable guidebook for anything other than the most superficial of visits. It is the sort of information-packed guide at which Lonely Planet excels. Weighing less than two pounds but covering 55 countries, Africa on a Shoestring has 240 maps, up-to-date visa and border advice, language glossaries, safety information, background history, politics, culture, and ecology, plus the necessary inside intelligence on places to stay, what and where to eat, the sights worth seeing, and where the Internet cafés are to be found. It's a priceless volume for the intrepid African traveler. --Stephanie Gold
