"I don't speak any Italian, so this guidebook was a bit of a lifesaver. I don't like to refer to books when I'm trying to experience the culture, but it was nice to be able to review this at the end of the day or in the morning before we started the day. I tried to learn a few important phrases and feel my way through the rest. We visited Venice, and most people in Venice do speak English. While I can confidently speak French, Italian is quite different (more akin to Spanish). I love the pronunciation guides; they were most helpful."
"Probably the best thing about this book was that it gave me courage to attempt speaking Italian on my trip. I've found that people in other countries really appreciate the effort to speak their language. Maybe that was something I read in "Europe Through the Back Door"?"
