Summary: All Let's Go books must be supplemented
Comment: I am not sure Harvard makes you a good travel writer. Take what you think is the average Harvard student and stick them in the middle of a strange country on a very limited budget. Now imagine them writing a book about it--- that is Let's Go.The books vary like the students (with no experience) that write them. They perform a decent job, but should be supplemented especially if the book covers multiple countries. If you are on a cheap budget then use their accomodation list and someone else's book to help you around.
Greece---the islands at least---is different... everyone and their dog will be waiting for you at the ferry landing offering you a place to stay. If you are with a goup take one of the offers, they are (inexpensive) and for the most part nice.
If you are alone, the people will just rent you a group room for the same group price. Traveling alone is the only time the Greece book will (marginally) help because you might be able to actually find something cheaper.

Summary: Agathos!
Comment: I've always entrusted my travels to Let's Go. Sifted through Lonely Planet and Frommer's and all seem fairly reliable and informative (except for monetary discrepencies which can't be helped because of price changes throughout the year). What sets Let's Go apart from other budget travel books is the excellent writing style. It's witty, whimsical and humorous. As a literature buff, I find myself grinning at how some authors pen their experiences. These folks know how to write!
I just wish the portion on Cyclades Islands was more detailed. But I suppose one book can't cover just one part of Greece. Also, can Let's Go change the quality of the paper? It's rough to my touch and hard to keep bent. In addition, I have to lug the book around everywhere and would appreciate a sturdier, more indestructible book. And how about some beautiful color photos like Lonely Planet?
Overall, kudos to Let's Go Greece 2000 for the quality of the writing and reliable information.
