Blue River, Black Sea by Andrew Eames
The Danube is Europe's Amazon. It flows through more countries than any other river - from the Black Forest in Germany to Europe's farthest fringes, where it joins the Black Sea in Romania. This title presents an account of the author's journey along its length that helps us explore the Continent's history and its issues of race and identity.
