A 140-page paperback by Peter Benn covering 26 Mediterranean, European and Baltic ports, from Barcelona and Rome to St Petersburg and Tallinn. Each port gets a short first-person snapshot of one shore excursion: how he was treated, what he saw, what was missing, and whether he recommends it. It also includes a shipboard procedure primer, a day-excursion packing checklist, and his account of using wristbands to manage motion sickness on shore days. It is a personal travelogue rather than a comprehensive port guide, so it suits cruisers who want candid impressions before booking ship excursions, not travelers who need maps, timetables or deep historical background.
