the best LP guide - By: A. Singh, 24 Nov 2007 
and the best guide I've come across for India. Packed with detail & a reasonable cultural/ historical introduction. Maps are great, the timetables are pretty accurate, the opening times & prices are correct...
There are some very bad LP guides out there. Vietnam springs to mind. But LP India has been consistently good throughout the years. I think I've used 4 versions of the guidebook & have been pleased with the improvements everytime.
Obviously the negativities are that it is pretty big but how else are you supposed to cram in alll that information.
A Must Have - By: C. L. Freeman, 07 Oct 2007 An absolute must for India! Not exactly space saving, but dont go to India without it.
Lonley Planet India - By: NR, 19 Sep 2007 
This book is very thick & heavy. Not the most practical of travel books. But makes a good pillow!!
The information is not so bad if you want to stay within the LP community. But the maps are invaluable when you turn up in a new town at 6am in the morning without a clue.
Best guide for India - By: S. J. Sandvei, 25 May 2007 This book is not only by far the best guide to India that you will ever find. It is also the best Lonely Planet guide I have ever read (I have 6 other LP guides). Everything you will ever need in your traveling through India is written in this guide, & every aspect seem covered. There is a reason why every single traveler in India has this book, & this might be the only weakness: if you follow this guide, you will follow an already taken path in a country, that provides plenty of possibilities for the opposite. But that will be the case with any guide, so go ahead & get the best one available, this one!
