Traveller's Tales, CONTESTED LANDS, A Journey To Eastern Turkey & Western Georgia - Paperback

by Ross Howard (Author)

This is a journey through a landscape of contested lands, populated with the remnants of invading armies, the rise and fall of empires and conflict between competing religious beliefs. This is a landscape featuring some of the most ancient structures built by man.These are lands that reflect the burden of ethnic differences, which have erupted into conflict on those occasions when the pursuit of power of the seeking of blame overwhelms the natural rights of the people. We meet people who have enjoyed good times and endured the hard times, sometimes described as the Terrible Times. But they have survived and those who have suffered have hope for better times.
