Description
Georgia in the Mountains of Poetry by Peter Nasmyth For over three decades, Peter Nasmyth has been fascinated by the history and culture of Georgia, a country nestled at the crossroads of Europe and Asia. This revised and expanded edition of his seminal work offers a comprehensive and engaging account of Georgia's rich past, from its ancient stone towers to its modern-day democracy. Georgia is a country of striking contrasts, with its subtropical wetlands and semi-arid regions, as well as the majestic Caucasus mountains. The country's 3,000-year-old history has been shaped by the rise and fall of various empires, including the Bagratuni monarchy and the Soviet Union. Yet, despite its strategic location, Georgia remains a relatively unknown nation outside its borders. This book provides a unique insight into the country's inner story, making it an essential read for anyone interested in exploring this fascinating region.
