My Recommendation for a Tourist Guide for the Land of Israel

From a conversation on the English Kedushas Tzion forum:
“ERETZ AVOSEINU: A Tour Guide for The Religious Jewish Visitor” (1999) by Sholom Dov Steinberg, Yaakov Turnheim
It bursts with Chibas Ha’aretz and scholarship, has great paper, covers many high points of our country, and contains detailed driving and even walking instructions, viz. “take 25 steps down and look left…” (these may be obviated and superseded somewhat by new construction and cheap GPS).
This deserves more, but it’s not in front of me. Even the rectangular shape was planned to be easy to hold!
I never saw anything else in English even coming close.
