In reply to UKC Gear:
Well I haven't seen the guide, but the sample pictures here look great. Really good at giving you that so important, and so hard to find "overview" of the situation to give context to the mountains, the routes, the huts and lifts and their relation to one another.
Guides have got vastly better in 20-30 years, a great pity this wasn't available then, might have saved quite a lot of confusion and epics. On the other hand, perhaps a bit of adventure and exploration would have been taken away as well.
