Air Jaws 2

This Fodor’s guide to Buenos Aires begins with an explanation of how the book is set up. Readers are told, for example, that unless stated, “restaurants are open for lunch and dinner daily,” and all hotels operate on the European plan (without meals) unless they specify that one is instead on the Continental plan (with breakfast), or another, clearly described plan.

A Well-Organized Travel Guide

This is, of course, how all travel guides aught to be set up—but it isn’t, and this one does a particularly fine job of welcoming readers to their methods, and also of setting up the information inside (of which there is an enormous amount) in a way that is easy to understand. Readers are even invited to contribute to future editions of the book, by submitting travel photos, opinions, or recommendations. The result is a sense that this book will be reader-friendly and down to earth.

Buenos Aires Travel Pictures

Buenos Aires: With Side Trips to Gaucho Country, Igauzu, and Uruguay, 2nd Edition has a moderate visual element—there are not as many pictures as a DK Eyewitness guide would have, but the text is broken up by occasional photos, along with maps and portraits of notable portenos (people from Buenos Aires). This guide tends to feature candid pictures, of people dancing in a nightclub, say, or shopping in an outdoor market, rather than formal, staged photographs. This adds to the sense of the book as down to earth and casual.
