It is not a tourist guide. It is more a memoir. The writing flows very easily and enjoyable in the first part of the book, while the writer is in Turkey as a Peace Corp teacher. It was nice to know how the people are and their everyday lives. The second part could have been shorter.

Very small mention (very!) about the other minorities that lives in Turkey such as: Armenian, Kurds, etc...… (altro)

It spends more time telling you about things that suck and to avoid than things it likes, which is never a good sign (and unconscionable in amazing Turkey).

A classic in its time. There wasn't much available on Turkey, and Brosnahan became a guru. Travelled with it the first time I went there (1989), and took it when we lived there. Superceded by weightier tomes now, but I have a very affectionate spot for this on my bookshelf!
