Cadogan Guides
Well researched and reliable The Rough Guide to the Greek Islands has been my unmistaken guide to the greek archipelago for many years. I still find the information in it relevant today, and use it for background cross-reference during my trips. I think, when, in our fast changing world, it eventually becomes obsolete, it will still stand out as a travel snaphot of the decade.
