"The Berlitz Corsica Pocket Guide" focuses on the major towns of Ajaccio, Bonifacio, Bastia, Corte, and Calvi. It also includes a description of outlying attractions such as Cap Corse, Palombaggia's beautiful sandy bays, and Filitosa's prehistoric stone formation. It covers all the main sights, area by area, in an easily navigable format. Descriptions of tourist attractions include soaring mountains, dramatic medieval citadels, Napoleon's birthplace, and Bastia's bustling harbour. The guide also contains background historical information, advice on shopping and entertainment and the low-down on Corsican cuisine. There is an A-Z of practical information, listings of recommended hotels and restaurants and useful expressions in French. Topics ranging from Corsican folklore to the Parc Naturel Regional are featured. Maps show Northern Corsica, Southern Corsica and Ajaccio, and there are dozens of colour photographs throughout.
