Summary: Skip This Just Buy the Regular Guide Much Better
Comment: This is a scaled down version of the regular Eyewitness Venice book.
I have to confess up front. I love these books. I must have a dozen. I really like the Paris book, and the one for Prague, and Stockholm, and South Africa, and .... You get all the detailed material similar to other great travel books plus you get great visuals.
The photos and descriptions and cutaway drawings are excellent and more than make up for any lack of small detail. But there is lots of detail here. The book includes the history of Venice and many details on the art, art galleries, parks, cutaway views of historical buildings, and many other things of interest. That is the good part.
The bad part is why buy this book when there is a much better Eyewitness Travel book on Venice for a few extra dollars. The big book is 5 stars. This is an edited and scaled down sibling.
Recommendation: skip this thin 2 star or 3 star book and just buy the regular book which is easily a 5 star book.

Summary: A molto buono pocketful of information
Comment: I'd arrived with Fodor's, the Rough Guide and the Red Michelin. Edith showed up with this... I hated the stupid title, but envied the size and weight... all my travel books were so big I needed a bag to carry any of them. Looking inside the Eyewitness Top 10, I discovered that it contained up-to-date, accurate information, maps, addresses and tips, as well as historical facts and interesting anecdotes and trivia. The dining information was reliable and the shopping tips checked out. When Edith left, I borrowed her copy for the next two weeks and found it to be a good companion. The other books were useful when I was in our rented apartment, but this one was by far the best to carry.
(For Venice's confusing maze of calles, pontes, and sottoportegos, you'll still want a large detailed map besides those in the book.)
