Dear list, I am excited by a new book I recently purchased about Croatia.... it is "Croatia and the Dalmatian Coast" travel guide. In fact I believe it is the best I have ever seen. While it is small in physical size and under 300 pages it is packed with great articles about traditions, arts, nature, history, language and culture and the photos are beautiful! I paid $26.95 at Barnes and Noble Books The book is Written by Knopf Guides ISBN: 978-0-375-71112-1 (0-375-71112-0) But you can get it for under $17.00 online at Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0375711120/103-6471283-7015018?v=glance&n=283155 Follow the link below to my October 2006 tour of Croatia http://www.kollander-travel.com/
