Bosnia and Herzegovina lies at the cultural crossroads of east and west. It was here that Byzantine and Ottoman civilisations met Roman and Austro-Hungarian ones, moulding one of Europe's most diverse nations. Where else would you find Orthodox and Catholic churches, a mosque and a synagogue side by side in the same square? This comprehensive and practical guidebook - now in its second edition - leads you to the Mediterranean south and the Alpine north, through fields of fig trees and green mountains. Almost a decade after the war, you'll be pleasantly surprised by a mosaic of landscapes and a warm welcome.
