If the DK travel books are in that list, the bigger ones($20+) are better than the smaller pocket ($12.00) ones. I don't care for the hotel and restaurant reviews / ratings in any of them as they seem to prove too often that the author was obviously never there, but the maps and histories / things to see are great. ( I avoid the top 10 crap/opinions)
Haven't been to Venice or Florence, but have had so-so food in Rome.
House wine always seemed to be pretty good, though.
I wanted to do Mt.Etna and Mt. Vesuvius so Naples, Capri , Sicily were my destinations of choice after Roma.
