I used this prior to my third trip to Mongolia; I'm heading again this summer and it is certainly very much of use. There's scope for more detail in some areas though. Travelling to Mongolia isn't easy to plan as information isn't as plentiful as elsewhere so this is a good start.Danny

Last edited in 1997, I found the contents of the book slightly outdated when I went to Mongolia this summer - for example the train time schedules were not as accurate as I hoped it would be. Apart from that the book gives a good introduction to the history and culture of Mongolia, and it gives a good idea of what you should expect. One piece of advice though - if you're seriously considering travelling in Mongolia but don't speak Mongolian at all, the Mongolian Phrasebook is a must.
