Albania (Bradt Travel Guides)
The Bradt guide takes a look at how and where to explore the heritage of a country influenced by the Greeks, Romans, Italians and Turks, who have all left their mark on the landscape and culture. Gillian Gloyer's guide helps travellers get the most out of their sightseeing whilst enjoying Albania's hospitality and natural beauty. It offers in-depth coverage of the capital, Tirana, as well as detailing archaeological attractions and museums and their historic background. Practical information includes transport links by air, bus, ferry and hydrofoil and an easy-to-follow guide to the Albanian language.

The Accursed Mountains: Journeys in Albania
Travelling by bus, on foot, by mule and horse, staying with Albanians in their houses and crumbling Stalinist tower blocks, Robert Carver meets Vlach shepherds and village intellectuals, ex-Communist Special Forces officers and juvenile heroin smugglers, missionaries with jeeps and light planes, and ex-prisoners of Enver Hoxha who have spent 45 years in the Albanian gulag. In the remote villages of the Accursed Mountains of the far north, he is the first Briton seen since World War II, when Intelligence officers were parachuted in to help fight the German occupiers. On his journey to Lake Gashit, high above the snowline on the Serb-Montenegrin border, Carver survives murder attempts and suicidal bus rides.
