Kingdom Of Georgia: Travel in a Land of Women, Wine, and Song / Edition 1

by Oliver Wardrop

Overview

First published in 2008. Intended for would-be travellers to Georgia, this guide presents information on all of the country's regions, as well as its history, language, literature, and political conditions. Batum, Tiflis, Vladikavkaz, the Kakhetian Road, Signakh, and the Alazana are among the locales explored by the author of this fascinating book, first published in 1888. Today's travellers would be well advised to carry two guides: a modern book to assist them with practical necessities and Wardrop's Kingdom of Georgia to convey to them Georgia's history and eternal spirit.
