Reader Reviews:
Rare and passionate but subjective oversight (7/7 people found this helpful)
This book is welcome as it fills a much needed gap in literature about Kyrgyzstan. It provides very detailed and useful information for a traveller that likes to read about the political, cultural and economic background of a country in detail before travelling. The authors point out some great travel opportunities and provide the basic information needed for travel. I found that the text did not, however, provide a balanced view of some contentious issues, for instance the impacts of national independence, islam or hunting.
