Maggiori informazioni sul libro
"Prague, capital of the Czech Republic, is arguably the most beautiful city in Europe--perhaps the world. For a highly informed guide, an information trove the reader might just as well sit home and absorb, turn to Keihauer's handsome, lavishly illustrated work, which offers over 250 illustrations (137 in color) and highly detailed color maps. The photographs, though small, are sharp and telling, like windows onto the town. Entries are grouped geographically for the main parts of town, and there are excursions to outlying areas as well. Included are practical tips for accommodations, eating, shopping, and cultural events. Valuable for touring and reference alike. For those who prefer a very chatty guide, choose Edwards, who was born in Prague and now writes for the New York Times and other publications. As readers follow an itinerary laid out step by step from one part of town to the next, they will be regaled by many anecdotes, often somewhat far afield from the touring at hand, and will frquently be taken off the beaten path (a plus for those with enough time to see more than the main sights). A section on hotels, restaurants, museums, and shopping is included. Useful more for the walks than for general information, which Keihauer provides. (With 35 black-and-white photos; maps not seen)." - Edward B. Cone, New York, Library Journal
