From the snow-clad Carpathian Mountains to the Danube Delta and the Black Sea, form the capital, Bucharset - the Town of Gardens - to Vlad the Impaler's castle at Bran; from lazy river valleys carpeted in flowers to remote monastries bedecked in frescoes, the author's family foursome see the best Romania has to offer. In this they're capably assisted by their courier, Petru, who introduces them to local customs, folk dancing and 'celebrations'. The author's grasp of detail and obvious admiration for the tenacious spirit of a people invaded and oppressed during many centuries, plus a clear appreciative eye for landscape, architecture and flora, make 'Around Romania' a joy to read.
