In his only published work, nearly forgotten English author WILLIAM
FREDERIC WINGFIELD takes readers on a trip though Croatia and its
history. Wingfield strives to give his audience a full account of the
towns and cities he comes to, describing where the inhabitants came from
and what cultural peculiarities they might display, and investigating
the religious lineage of the various monasteries and churches he
encounters. His travels further take him into the Turkish empire, where
he is amazed by the differences between English and Turkish society.
Part history lesson and part travel guide, A Tour in Dalmatia, Albania,
and Montenegro is a glimpse into an often neglected part of the world.
Those intrigued by the mystery of far-flung regions will enjoy this
journey along the coast of the Adriatic Sea.
