Insight Guides: Malta
Insight Guides: Malta

Insight Guides: Malta, ed. Geoffrey Aquilina Ross, APA Publications, 1998
The Insight Guides are known for their beautiful pictures and their wealth of information of the countries they cover. This is not a step-by-step tourist guide, but a good overview of Malta, it's history, people, culture, and geography. Available in travel bookstores and on the internet. There is now a second Insight Guide about Malta, presumably with a different focus.
Malta, Gozo and Comino
Malta, Gozo and Comino

Malta, Gozo and Comino, by Simon Gaul, Cadogan Guides, 1993
This book was Jeff and Faye's primary tour guide on their trip. It was a little bit dated -- several things had changed in the six years since it was published. But overall, it was very informative -- very detailed information. The author definitely has "character" -- perhaps a little too cynical at times, but always interesting. Should be available in travel bookstores or on the internet.
