For your trip, I recommend combining practical guidebooks with more in-depth reading about the Baltic region. For Vilnius and Tallinn, consider the Lonely Planet guides: “Lonely Planet Estonia, Latvia & Lithuania” (excellent for up-to-date sights, maps, and restaurant tips) and, if you prefer a more compact option, “Pocket Tallinn” and “Pocket Vilnius” (where available). The Rough Guide to The Baltic States is a good alternative, with more cultural and historical background. For deeper context, look for “The Baltic: A History” by Michael North to understand the region’s past, and “Between Shades of Gray” by Ruta Sepetys (a novel set in Lithuania) to get an emotional feel for the country’s history. For Tallinn specifically, a short historical guide such as “Tallinn: A Historical Guide for Visitors” (various editions and authors) can help you interpret the Old Town’s main buildings and fortifications while you walk around.
