Bread And Ashes by Tony Anderson
He wanted particularly to visit the Georgian mountain tribes - Tush, Khevsurs, Ratchuelians and Svans - to discover if they shared a common mountain culture, and to test the old idea of the Caucasus as an impenetrable barrier from sea to sea.
Anderson's unusually reflective and observant narrative allows the reader to appreciate far more than the grandeur of nature.. Full of knowledge lovingly amassed over years of other travels... His sheer joy at being in Georgia warms the reader's heart * Times Literary Supplement *
