Java (Periplus Adveture Guides)

Rating:
Summary: One of the Best in the Series
Review: This book contains excellent background information on Java and descriptions of both its major highlights and obscure attractions - particularly archeological remains and national parks - written by a team of expert authors along with photos of stunnning quality.
Practical information is found separately in the back of the book, and is somewhat dated but still adequate.
Highly recommended, even as a 2nd guidebook if you already have a general Indonesia guide stronger on practical details like Lonely Planet or Rough Guide.
