5.0 out of 5 stars
It covers it all
With lots of color photos this book covers Turkey from its geography, history, government, economy, the turks, lifestyles, religion, languages, arts, leisure, festivals to its foods and includes a map of Turkey...

3.0 out of 5 stars
pictures do not represent actual Turkey
Even though it is a short book, it talks about bunch of stuff from politics to the foods and informed its readers well. On the other hand, the pictures that were chosen are misrepresenting Turkey. All of them are from the east side of Turkey and generally poor people or street children. Well, this is not only this book's mistake, I observed this in tens of different books...

All of them are from the east side of Turkey and generally poor people or street children. Well, this is not only this book's mistake, I observed this in tens of different books about Turkey. When the westerners see these pictures, they think that Turkish people are like Iranians, Iraqis or Afghans. They do not know that the majority of Turkish people look like Italians, French, Spanish or Americans.
