Zippos to go
Article Abstract:
Guidebooks have trouble keeping up with Vietnam. Lonely Planet's 'Vietnam, Laos & Cambodia: A Travel Survival Guide' offers detailed information that is mostly current, and usually interesting. Odyssey's 'Vietnam' offers great photography, a good historical summary and interesting sidebars. If you cannot afford the guidebooks elsewhere, wait to buy them in Vietnam where pirated editions are much cheaper.
