I suppose it's not entirely fair to rate a book in part on one's own misperceptions, but, I'm going to anyways. When I initially bought this book I thought it was going to be a comprehensive analysis of traveling Europe by Eurail (I was preparing for a 20 day whirlwind trip with my brother at the time). What the book provides is information about good hubs from which one can make multiple day trips using the Eurail system. It also contains some good information about the locales, contact information for local tourism offices and (in my experience) very accurate time tables. Had I known what I was getting (stupid me) I'd be rating this book five stars. As it was, the book helped our trip out immensely and even convinced us to go to a few countries we weren't even planning on (with zero regrets). ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0762734388, Paperback)

For nearly thirty years Europe by Eurail has been the train traveler's bible for visiting Europe's cities and countries by rail. This comprehensive guide provides the most up-to-date information on fares, schedules, and pass options, as well as detailed information on more than ninety specific rail trips. Each journey starts from one of twenty-four base cities on the Continent and describes all the details necessary to visit historic cities, romantic villages, and scenic hamlets. Three sample rail-tour itineraries combine several base cities and day excursions into fifteen-day rail-tour packages, complete with hotel recommendations and sight-seeing options.

Packed with pragmatic information, step-by-step directions, and highlights about where to go and what to see and do, this book helps takes the puzzle out of European rail travel.
