MACEDONIA TOUR BOOK

MK tour book

By Thammy Evans   –  3rd edition

344 pages  Tpb  (easy to carry!)

ISBN 139871841622972 

Price: $26 CAD               USD $19

Even in the 21st century, Macedonia is a story untold. Remote, land-locked and little visited. It’s a place practically untouched by tourist trappings, signposts and explanations. Yet this country, once the southernmost part of Yugoslavia, has a simple natural beauty that its European neighbours find hard to match. The Bradt guide is the only English-language about Macedonia. This 3rd edition includes new material on battlefields and historical figures, as well as updated information on outdoor pursuits, folk festivals, wine, archaeology – and, of course, Macedonia’s fast-improving hotels, restaurants and bars.

              “How are we to trace the bloodstained history of the Macedonian spirit to find a belief in the dense future and the meaning of existence?  As we penetrate in the symbolic string of 31 poems, one for each letter of the Macedonian alphabet, the intensity of the poetic expression becomes stronger and more exciting.  I am convinced that Jim Thomev’s poetry will not leave anyone indifferent.”  Dr. Ilija Casule.

MY NAME IS SOTIR – A Memoir of a Child Evacuee

My name is Sotir

By:  Olga Lexovska Naumoff  © 2003

Tpb:  355 pgs.

Price: $26 CAD          USD$19

This memoir transports you to a time and place, a people and a culture that few really know, or have cared about. As one of the 28-30,000 Macedonian children, from two to fourteen years of age, Sotir became one of the Detsa Begaltsi, evacuated by the partisans to countries that opened their doors to them, where the sounds of war would no longer be heard.  The parents placed their trust in the particans, rather than the Greeks.  This is a true, must-read story.  It is one that will evoke happy, carefree memories of the child in all of us.  It may remind you of life in the village, before and after the war interrupted the idyllic life.  Sotir will make you laugh at his antics, cry and remember, learn and give thanks for the human spirit that survives.

WHAT EUROPE HAS FORGOTTEN: The Struggle of the Aegean Macedonians

 

By Association of Macedonians in Poland

© 1992

Tpb: 68 pages (celloglazed cover)

Price:  $15 CAD        USD$11

This text examines official discrimination against the Macedonian minority of northern Greece, and the struggle for human rights, particularly by the more than 28,000 ethnic Macedonian child refugees evacuated in 1948 during the Greek Civil War.

The report contains 28 photographs and 26 pages of letters, certificates and documentary evidence.  The book outlines the obligations to fully protect the Macedonian national minority assumed by Greece when it annexed Aegean Macedonia in the 20th century.  This was to include full civic and political rights.  However, instead, the Greek authorities instigated policies aimed at assimilation, displacement and ethnic cleansing.
