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, a 1,384 page book titled Rick Steves' Best of Europe 2013 has not a single mention of Madrid, Seville, Toledo, or San Sebastian. That's like leaving New York, Chicago, New Orleans, and Newport Beach out of a USA travel guide. The only Spanish city mentioned is Barcelona. Almost as absurd is the fact that this "2013" book was published in August 2012. But this "Best" book did include enough pages to promote his over-priced whirlwind guided bus tours, videos, backpacks, sink stoppers, and Steves' other branded products. Steves is strong on self promotion but weak on meaningful content. Amazon.com pays a small commission to Enjoy-Europe.com when you click a title here and then order the book if you buy it within 24 hours, or put it in your cart and buy it later. You benefit when buying here because Amazon.com has a 20% to 30% discount on many items plus a free shipping deal. You win we win. Thanks for your support! Note: emphasis in the titles is mine -- to help you in finding the information you need. Don't worry too much about publication dates. Many books are updated every three to six years. The monuments and cathedrals haven't moved in centuries! |
