Description
Revised and updated to take into account the recent break-up of Czechoslovakia, this guide provides a broad range of information on accommodation, restaurants and sights. Featuring over 100 pages on the city of Prague, it summarizes the area's historical and political background and includes all new street names. Information on hiking in the more remote regions of the Slovak Republic are highlighted. The guide also includes biographies of some of the region's more famous sons and daughters, from Mahler and Freud to Tom Stoppard and Ivana Trump. Specialist coverage of contemporary issues includes facts about the controversial Danube dam, the border dispute with Hungary and other political issues resulting from the split of the two Republics.
