Travel writer Philip Ward, who has explored fifty countries around the world, takes the reader to northwest India to discover the wonders of the state of Rajasthan and the cities of Agra and Delhi. Rajasthan, known as the Country of the Princes, is the nation's most popular tourist destination. This guide reveals the surprises of Delhi, a great twentieth-century Asian capital with a complex past, and explores the expected and unexpected pleasures of Agra, with its Taj Mahal and I'timad ad-Daula, Red Fort, and teeming bazaars. Here, too, are familiar destinations such as Jodhpur and Pushkar, as well as such off-the-beaten-track jewels as Kishangarh, Dig, Kumbhalgarh, Bundi, Kota, and Chittor. Intended for first-time visitors as well as experienced travelers, Northern India: Rajasthan, Agra, Delhi provides helpful and thoughtful observations on India's main attractions.

A personal yet fully comprehensive and up-to-date view of a country still relatively unknown in the West, Bulgaria: A Travel Guide introduces the reader to this destination that has been previously ignored by Western tourists, but is now becoming a new travel hot spot deemed the Eastern European country most ready for tourists. Perhaps Europe's most underrated travel destination, Bulgaria is traditionally famed for hot summers on the sunny beaches and golden sands of the Black Sea coast, and skiing winters in mountain resorts such as Pamporovo, Borovets, and Bansko. The author also recommends springtime in museum towns such as Melnik and Koprivshtitsa, monasteries great and small, the art schools in Tryavna and Bansko, and antiquities in Plovdiv and Kazanluk, as well as walks in the Pirin and Rhodope mountains, museums, galleries, opera houses, and theatres. From Sofia, the booming capital, to quaint mountain villages, this guide is a thought-provoking study of the Bulgarian people, as well as a complete travel handbook for visitors. It offers intriguing insight into the culture of Bulgaria, while providing all of the information available in a more standard guidebook.
