Frommer's EasyGuide to Rome, Florence and Venice 2015

A strong best-seller in its 2014 edition, this is a thoroughly revised and up-to-date guide to one of travel's most popular places. Its authors have won awards for their earlier treatment of Tuscany (in a smaller volume) and here devote their talents to the three broader areas that most visitors choose to visit. But in the Easy Guide tradition, they don't attempt to note hundreds of hotels, restaurants, museums and shops, but a smaller, more manageable number that they prefer. The reader benefits.
