Re: Guide books (whole Japan, specific areas and special top
-----------------------------------
I tend to evaluate Japan guidebooks according to the thickness of their Hokkaido Section, and so far Lonely Planet (and its Hiking in Japan derivate) and the Rough Guide rule among them all. I still think Northern Japan and Hokkaido are significantly less studied  than other regions such as the Kansai or even Chubi areas in these books. 

If I had the opportunity, I would be glad to write a guide entirely devoted to Hokkaido!  :D
