Notice that the other reviews apply to the old edition 30 Aug 2007

By M Elliott

Format:Paperback

The three reviews below refer to the old edition of this book. The new version has been entirely rewritten and re-researched. As part of the team who helped write it I should leave the reviews to other people, but I think the criticism of not including Ukraine is quite unfair given that the book never claims to do so!

Comprehensive guide to a virtually unexplored destination 26 Jan 2001

By rpallison@hotmail.com

Format:Paperback

A must buy for any visitor to the Ukraine. Of all the guide books that I read on the region the Lonley Planet effort came out on top once again. It opens up this under visited region to the in-experienced western vistor, providing useful phrases and insights into customs and cultures. Well done to the Lonley Planet.
