A Sensible Guide to Dubrovnik & Its Islands

If you want to truly understand Dubrovnik, this is the book for you.

Written by two foodie historians, this is not like other travel guides: Yes, you'll find restaurant recommendations, but we omitted all but the best so that we could focus on giving you more background, more insight from locals, and more quirky tidbits from the city's rich and varied history. It includes more than a dozen interviews with locals – from water polo players to food historians –, as well as short stories, an excerpt from a play, and very useful explanations of the role the different winds play in Dalmatia's culture. We hope you'll enjoy it!
