Book Reviews of Rick Steves' France, Belgium and the Netherlands 2001
Book Review: Good basic
Summary: 4 Stars
It will give you the courage to go, and that's a big plus. I found fault mainly with the limited number of places he covered (none of which I was going to be near), and his sense that it would be very easy to get around France with minimal French because English is so widely spoken. This was not my experience at all. Perhaps the places he likes are that way (and maybe that is why he likes them). I found instead that I was getting along very barely with my minimal French, some signs, but very rarely any English spoken even though I always started in French.
