Istanbul (Eyewitness Travel Guides) (repost)

I have previously bought DK guides of other places that we have visited, including Rome, Venice, Florence, Madrid, etc. They are truly mini-encyclopedias and well worth buying for an in-depth explanation of destinations. I am rating this guide of Istanbul in advance of our visit. The only negative I would note is that the DK guides pack so much information into their volumes by, among other things, using a font for their text that is VERY SMALL. (Yes, I am not a youngster and I do wear corrective lenses.) I don't know if they are available in a Kindle version. If so, that option or using an old-fashion magnifying glass may be necessary if your eyes, like mine, begin to tear at the sight of such fine print! I still recommend them for their in-depth contents. (I typically also purchase a Rick Steves guide, if available for the destination, to help me prioritize what to see.)
