     Go to any bookstore and pick up a copy of Let's Go:  Europe.
It's an orange paperback that's published by Harvard Student Travel
Services.  It's THE best guide for Eurail info., low-cost hotels,
pensiones, B&B's, restaurants, etc.  You can get the Eurail Pass from
a travel agent or directly from the address published in Let's
Go...the cost is the same.

     If you plan to spend a lot of time in a particular country, you
might want to get one of the specialized editions of Let's Go, such as
Let's Go:  France or Britain.  These books are MUCH better than
Frommer's.

     Eurailing is a blast.  The scenery from the trains is 10X better
than anything you would ever see from the window of an American
Express tour bus.

     One note:  Your Eurail pass is NOT good in Britain.  For the UK,
you would probably want to get a BritRail pass only if you plan to do
a LOT of traveling.  I usually just pay-as-I-go in Britain.
