<br/>
I am looking through the new Lonely Planet guide to Switzerland <br/>
(published July 2003) and two maps of the Switzerland-Liechtenstein <br/>
border have me puzzled. Maybe I should not take a guidebook map as <br/>
authoritative, however on page 295, the entire eastern bank of the <br/>
Rhine has been &quot;ceded&quot; to Switzerland (thereby making Liechtenstein <br/>
truly landlocked). Whereas on page 313, the western border of <br/>
Liechtenstein extends to include the western bank of the Rhine. In <br/>
both cases, one country or the other possesses a hairline bank of <br/>
land on the opposite side of the Rhine River. BTW, the former map <br/>
also assigns to Switzerland all of Austria&#39;s Rhinebank.<br/>
<br/>
Surely this is an error committed twice? Is not the CHLI (the <br/>
abbreviated code, I am guessing) border the Rhine River itself?<br/>
