Trans-Siberian Handbook: Includes Rail Route Guide and 25 City Guides (Trailblazer Guides)
The best book for Trans-Siberian travelers, May 6, 2004
Reviewer: Jessica Jacobson (Princeton, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)
I have used this book multiple times while traveling the Trans-Siberian. During my first trip, it helped me to get my bearings and to plan the practicalities. On subsequent trips, I was able to enjoy the detailed maps and information about stops along the way. It is very accurate and detailed. I still found a previous version useful several years after publication. It does focus primarily on stops directly on the route. For those who with to travel further afield, I wrote the book ROAMING RUSSIA: An Adventurer's Guide to Off The Beaten Track Russia and Siberia. The Trans-Siberian Handbook is an essential book for Siberian rail travelers. I highly recommend it.
