4.0 out of 5 stars In depth Sri Lanka, 23 Jul 2009

By	C. E. Sayer (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book has good detailed information on Sri Lanka with fact on many of the smaller towns as well as the larger tourist areas. We felt that the book could be made easier to navigate and include more pictures and maps, hence the 4 stars.
