5All I needed  Feb 17, 2010
This book was all I needed for my trek around the Annapurna circuit in November 2008. Buy it and you will be more than fine on your journey.

4VERY INFORMATIVE  May 12, 2009
I learnt quite a bit from reading this book. It's very informative, but it ain't Lonley Planet

5Hiking Annapurna? Read this book!  Mar 23, 2009
Get this book if you plan to hike the Annapurna trail. Contains detailed information you can't find in the other travel books on the little villages you encounter on the trial along with a handsketched map. The only negative I have is the book is out of date. It was last updated in 2005. Progress is occurring extremely fast on certains parts of the trail. I'm still wondering how they built a road in Jomsom, but doesn't connect all the way to the bottom. Hike now before the place becomes a super highway.

5Very good choice for backpacking trip to Annapurna  Mar 20, 2009
I purchased this book in preparation for a trip. Going to trip tomorrow so this review is written before the trip. This is a very good book for somebody who is planning to do a trip in Annapurna region in Nepal. The book is good in size so fits well into a day-pack. Very good and relevant information with detailed maps of many treks that you can take, solid advice on medical aid, hotels, things that you allowed to do and things that should not be done. This is not a book about history or details of which tourists attractions to see - there are highlights and short description on these.
Overall, it is a great book for the backpack traveler in Nepal.

5Don't trek without it.  Dec 02, 2008
This guide was all you need for trekking in the Annapurna Region. The maps were great as were the recommendations on guesthouses, trekking times and food. People with other trekking guides (IE LP) asked to read my guide as they realized how good it was.
