Recommended books for further information: There are hundreds of books on Spain. Michelin Red and Green guides are my favorites but there are many other good ones. The books that you see listed here are those that I have personally used and am satisfied with, and/or are from publishers whose other travel books are reliable. I am a consumer when it comes to travel guides, and a critical one. Notice that I do not recommend any Frommers, Dummies, Steves, or other inferior guides. For some of the reasons please go to the hoi polloi. As one example of a substandard guide, I have a 1,450 page book titled Rick Steves' Best of Europe 2007 which has not a single mention of Sevilla, San Sebastian, or the Costa del Sol. That's like leaving Chicago, New Orleans, and Newport Beach out of a USA travel guide. The only cities mentions are Barcelona, Madrid, and Toledo. But this "Best" book did include enough pages to promote his expensive whirlwind guided bus tours, videos, backpacks, sink stoppers, and Steves' other branded products. Steves is strong on self promotion but weak on meaningful content. For the good stuff, the links below take you directly to a page at Amazon.com. That page details the book or map, and in some cases includes readers' comments and sample pages from the book.You then have the opportunity to add the book to your shopping cart and buy it. Amazon.com pays a small commission to Enjoy-Europe.com when you click a title here and then order the book.
