About this title

Review:

'Mallows brought with her a defined sense of the historical and cultural context of all the places she wrote about.' The Oldie 'If there is one word, which characterises this guide to Transylvania it has to be 'enthusiasm'. Lucy Mallows' ... passion for the place shines through the pages of her guide, generating interest and curiosity on the part of the reader'. --The Budapest Times
