Brilliant - A must have for Israel
cannot praise this book enough. I rented a car and went to Jerusalem, The Galilee, The Golan, Tel Aviv and the Dead Sea. And this book made the trip what is was. From the secret view of the Dome of the Rock from the old Islamic college on the Via Delarosa to the unreal restaurant in the Golan ("Witch's Calderon" i think - in Nimrod).

cannot recommend highly enough - 6 stars

handy
good, but the tel aviv street map could of been bigger. i ended up using another book as an a-z for there.

the seller
I bought this book from Superbookdeals and returned it shortly after buying. On the receipt it said that it was a 100% refund policy. So I sent the book back to the address on the receipt that it said to send returns. However three weeks later I am still emailing them back and forth, them saying that they have not got the book yet and there is no phone number to contact them. I have looked on google, yell, etc and it does not seem to exist, if it does but with no number. I also found their website which only has an american address to write to and email. Also on the website it says a different London address to send the returns to so dont bother buying anything from these people. Its nothing but hassle. As far as the book goes it was very leftwing and pro-arab. There was no balanced view at all to say the least. The authors seem to forget that Israel was the land of the Jews over 3000/4000 years ago.
