...still have lingering doubts about London's commitment to the European ideal of unity. And there is always the giant question mark of Charles de Gaulle, who said non once before and could do it again.

Unlike Fielding, his books cover the full range of tourism, from historical background to such practical tips as how to kick a hangover in Paris (drink Fernet-Branca) and how to gamble in casinos (for the best odds, play trente et quarante). Trouble is, Fodor leaves the actual writing and research of his books to a staff of 100 contributors, and the results are wildly uneven. He is good on France and Austria, far behind on Portugal and Spain...
