      Czechy to kraj kontrastów. To uprzemysłowione państwo posiada niezwykłe dziedzictwo pałaców i kościołów z różnych epok, a Praga jest najlepiej zachowanym barokowym miastem w Europie. W niemal każdej miejscowości większość twierdz, zamków i wiejskich dworów jest otwarta dla zwiedzających. Piechurzy znajdą tu liczne szlaki przecinające parki narodowe i rezerwaty przyrody, na przykład obejmujące góry Czeski Raj czy Szumawę. W czasie wędrówek można podziwiać rzadkie twory geologiczne, ruiny, bystre rzeki, głębokie wąwozy i pierwotne ostępy leśne. W zachodniej części kraju znajduje się wiele kurortów, z których największe to Karlowe Wary i Mariańskie Łaźnie. Urokliwe miasta, liczne zamki na skałach i odnowione uzdrowiska zadowolą każdego turystę. Jedzenie jest sycące, aromatyczne i tanie, piwo wspaniałe, a wino coraz lepsze.

    • This high-level yet readable analysis of one of the world's most respected wine regions has been expanded; the first edition dealt only with the left bank, and this new edition adds coverage of the south bank of the river Bordeaux. It is an all-embracing, comprehensive volume by an award-winning wine writer. Brook, whose books have received such prestigious awards as the Prix du Champagne Lanson, Glenfiddich, and Veuve Clicquot prizes, provides insider information about how the great Médoc, Graves, and other world-famous Bordeaux wines are produced, from the red Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignons to the sweet Sauterne whites. Detailed maps and photos cover the most famous châteaux and communes, as well as smaller specialists and newcomers worth watching.

      A Season in Israel

      This portrait of Israel attempts to lay bare the contradictions that make Israel both deeply problematic and fascinating. The author has travelled all over this small but varied country, reporting its diversity, seeking out the widest possible range of Israelis, making sense of this heroic but deeply flawed country, and giving expression to all shades of opinion from Jew and Arab alike. Stephen Brook is the author of The Double Eagle and Maple Leaf Rag.
