Syria: Cradle of Civilizations

by Alain Cheneviére

Syria is gravely underrepresented in the travel literature of our time. So, here is a significant book that fills an urgent need. Captured in a stunning series of photographs are Syria's monuments and works of art, archaeological treasures, vibrant new cities, and contrasting deserts. This breathtaking history is accompanied by a lively and informative text by author and inveterate traveler Alain Chenevière, who introduces the reader to a country that every year is drawing new visitors and winning devotees.
