Customer Rating:      Summary: a match for my requirements Comment: It all depends on how much time you have to "indulge" into a travel guide. The rough guide compared to lonely planet satisfies me more because of the more mature approach to the writings, descriptions and presentations of the subject matter. I presume that both guide books offer more or less the same tourist info, so I choose this guide book for the simple fact which I value as most important that the authors take more time to make an enjoyable reading.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A little too politically correct Comment: The Rough Guide has some wonderful historical sections on such attractions as Hampton Palace and the Tower of London. But the writer seems to be ashamed of England's history, and the apologies are a bit over the top.
