This is the third in my series on my Greece guidebooks and the second of these by Manolis Andronicos. This one deals with one of my favourite sites in Greece which is deeply beautiful as a natural setting as well as being one of the most important sites in Greece. It is also a very well-designed museum and archaeological site, so well worth visiting.

The guide is pretty comprehensive and goes through many of the important sites and artifacts. Mind you, it does seem to stop at the Temple of Apollo, but doesn't discuss the upper levels as much like the Stadium. It isn't that Andronicos doesn't mention it. He just doesn't spend much time.

Interestingly, I noticed a few more typoes in this volume. That is a minor criticism and this remains an excellent guide to Delphi and its Museum.
