Though obscured for decades behind communism’s Iron Curtain, a handful of newly democratic European countries have burst into the 21st century offering much to the world. Looking at Europe, a new, full-color series, examines the rich histories of these countries, and the bright futures they have.
The contents of each volume include: Introduction; History; Towns & Cities; People & Culture; Education; Cuisine; Transportation; Economy; Tourism; and Nature.
"These attractively designed titles look at each nation's history, topography, culture, cuisine, transportation, economy, and nature. While the texts are brief, the content is solid enough for a basic report. The format is pleasing, with good-quality, full-color photos on every spread. Captions and frequent sidebars add information to the texts. Each title contains an ethnic recipe. These appealing overviews deserve to be in most collections."
