Good book but the best on the subject. 9 Feb 1999

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

Mr. Howell's book is very well written like his book about living in Mexico. However we find Christopher Howard's "New Golden Door to Retirement and Living in Costa Rica" to be much better and paint a more relaistic picture of the country. Howard lives ther full time.

This guide paints a far too rosey picture of the country 31 Oct 1999

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

After having read this book, the other guides about the subject of living in Costa Rica and having resided in the country, I can categorically state this book doesn't really talk about the down side of living there. Granted the country is very nice but more info. is needed. It just doesn't cover the negatives in detail.

A good book but not the best on the subject 25 Feb 1999

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

My wife and I find the new edition of this guidebook not as complete as the previous editions. We like the old cover and color pictures which were in previous editions.

In general the book is very well written organized but lacks a lot of details about living in the country i.e. insider information.
