"From Robert Service to Arlitia Jones, this book reveals the range of experiences inspired by living in this great state. Alaska's writers are one of our greatest natural resources." —Charlotte Fox, Executive Director, Alaska State Council on the Arts

I was sitting in a restaurant some blocks away from the Vatican having lunch when I struck up a conversation with an Italian diplomat. He asked how in the world I had found this restaurant? He wasn't used to seeing anyone other than locals eating there. I pulled this book out and showed him the review. He was impressed that the Time Out folks had found the place. So, it's pretty well researched.

good background essays, very good restaurant recommendations, a sensible approach to navigating around the sights. My one complaint is that the maps are not tied to the text awfully well, and actually allowed us to go seriously astray when we looked for the catacombs along the Appian Way.
