I was dissappointed in this travel guide,as I first saw the book.In most of travelling guide books there are allot of colored pictures,to entice people to travel to that destination.unfortunately this book has 16 colored pictures out of 233 pages.

There isn't a lot available on travel to Macedonia, to say the least! This books offers a fantastic start to a country worth discovering. The author gives helpful and important background information as well as valuable history.
If you are considering a trip to the balkans, make time for Macedonia! (and pick up a copy of this book first!)

I absolutely loved this guide; even though I have traveled through Macedonia many times there were a lot of little useful details and insights Thammy offers in her book. I would recommend the book to anyone traveling to Macedonia even travelers returnees.
Useful guide, with a pinch of salt December 7, 2005

This is a useful guide to Macedonia, clearly written by someone with an enthusiasm and love for the country, which is to be applauded. However, while the writer is extremely helpful about places to visit and mountains to climb, and so on, she does little to conceal her own prejudices. In places there are unfortunate assertions (about certain groups) that do little to dispel myth and stereotype, and do not help to promote reconciliation and understanding. This is probably unintentional and written in all innocence, but as the guide purports to support responsible tourism, it could perhaps be written with a greater degree of sensitivity, given the well known tensions and history of conflict in the country. Read carefully, with a large pinch of salt!
