5.0 out of 5 stars
A real-life guide to Poland's Ancient Capital,
This review is from: Travellers Krakow (Travellers - Thomas Cook) (Paperback)
Scott Simpson's "Travellers Krakow" is the perfect companion for the visitor who wants to look past the tourist traps and potted history and delve into the back-alleys and esoteric hotspots of this amazing city. Krakow is one of the least-appreciated of Europe's old cities, and author Scott Simpson shows you what you've been missing. Krakow was a medieval enclave of heretics and intellectuals, boasts one of the oldest universities in Europe, and was a jewel of the Renaissance. Simpson takes you to the churches, fortifications, pagan mounds, inside the legends and rollicking festivals in this book that will make any visit to Krakow a memory of a lifetime.
The author is an American expatriate who has lived for years in Poland and understands the language, history and culture, and doesn't steer the reader into the pap and crap so many other guidebooks do. "Travellers Krakow" is not only thorough, it's an exciting read. If you get one book on Krakow, this is it.
