A thoughtful, well constructed guidebook...
(The other book was Lonely Planet's Central America on a Shoestring. I brought two guidebooks with me on my recent trip to Honduras, which is an amazing country to visit by the way, and this book was the better resource by far. ) J. P. Panet writes about Honduras with sincere affection for its people and a sensitivity to their culture. Hotel and restaurant listings are comprehensive, phone numbers are accurate (not so with Lonely Planet's book), and descriptions are useful. I almost didn't buy this book because of another review on (. . . ) site, but I'm glad I ignored it!.

The Worst Travel Book I Have Ever Used
This is the worst guidebook I have ever used! The information is inconsistent and not organized well. This book deserves no stars. It lacks a language section. I found the references to "clubs for men" offensive. In addition, this book included inaccurate generalizations of the women in Honduras. Although this book is in its fifth edition, there are still several errors in it. I would have been better off using the Rough Guide to Central America.
