Moon Handbooks: Indonesia (6th Ed.)
Editorial Reviews
National Geographic Traveler, February 2000
These handsome, well-edited books from a Hong Kong-based publisher cover places few other guidebooks go.... The writers are particularly well-chosen....Odyssey fans tend to be adventurous travelers with a literary bent. If you're lucky enough to find an Odyssey Guide to where you're going, grab it.
