I first read this book when I was on holidays in Italy with my family and found that, armed with the information it contained, it enhanced the Holiday.
I ordered this copy for a friend going to Rome for the first time who found it invaluable. Because of the era of the book it doesn't date.
For convenience I would recommend a hard back copy.
