Peter Nasmyth Libri

At the heart of the Caucasus mountains lies a coveted, fought-over, beautiful Georgia, a place of violent contrast. In this account of his travels through this eccentric, exotic state, Peter Nasmyth paints a portrait of an ancient, modern and thriving culture.

Georgia in the Mountains of Poetry is Peter Nasmyth's fascinating account of this intriguing country, based on 30 years of travel and hundreds of interviews. Reprinted numerous times, it remains the only comprehensive book on Georgia's history and culture written for the general reader, now substantially expanded for this new edition.
