I bought this book for an upcoming trip to Israel and I started reading every page. It includes information about hotels, restaurants and tips of foods to try, when things are open regarding the Sabbath and Jewish holidays, the culture, economy, customs, events during different times of year, best times to visit, sacred sites, shopping, relationship with Palestine, etc... There are sections based on interests including one on traveling with kids. The book is divided into 9 areas in Israel with a lot of details, tips and useful information on each area. I found this book to be an extremely valuable resource as well as providing a lot of interesting information that I was glad to learn about. Next time I am looking for a travel book on a specific area, I will definitely consider Fodor's as it covers everything and is the only book I will need. I usually end up purchasing multiple books for travel so I have everything covered, but this book does it all. You will not be dissapointed!
