Lonely Planet Colombia (Travel Guides) (Book)

Customer Rating:
Reviews:

"This small compact book carries a gigantic wallop. It is filled with information from cover to cover and is by far the best travel book on Colombia I have ever come across. Moreover, the introduction and historical narrative is simply outstanding. This book is a great travel companion and if used properly will unlock the beauty and treasures that Colombia has to offer.

Author Krzysztof Dydynski was born in Poland but lived in Colombia for four years and manages to capture the best and brightest features of the nation. The author is comprehensive and includes sketches, photos, maps and a first class index. The only downside of this valuable book is that it is a little outdated. The 1995 publication must be updated to warn of the many dangers of travel in Colombia today and to include new places of interest throughout the country. "Lonely Planet travel survival kit; Colombia," is worth every penny. It covers all the bases for any budget. I love this book.

Bert Ruiz" This book has best information on Colombia, well worth reading if you renting a Alternative Vacation Villa in Colombia.

"I lived in Colombia for 13 year and recently went back for a 4 month trip. This book had lots of interesting out of the road tips and tricks to make the stay more enjoyable. Even my parents that have lived for over 40 years there learned a lot of it, specially the Zona Cafetera and Valle del Cauca. Some attractions are unknown even for locals."

Kings of the Mountains: How Colombia's Cycling Heroes Changed Their Nation's History (Book)

Customer Rating:
Reviews:

"This book is an extraordinary account of the cycling history of Columbia, featuring its big names like Zipa and Cochise, but it is masterfully woven in with the story of this troubled country's search for identity and democracy. The tales of the Vuelta make your heart pound in symapthy as the riders gasp for air in their titanic struggle up the mountains, and you cannot help but appreciate the metaphor for this rich but deeply unhappy country and its journey through coups and drug-lords to where it is now. A book for cycling enthusiasts, Latin America fans and people who want a good read." www.HomeIsAway.com great Vacation Casa to Rent in Colombia.

"Well researched and well written account of the history of cycle racing in a country where it is the national sport. If you've seen the Tour de France or even ridden up some of the mountains, then you can still only imagine what some of the climbs in the Vuelta must be like. If you're interested in Colombia or in cycle racing, you won't regret buying this book." If you are thinking about renting a Holiday Houses in Colombia, I would buy this book to take with you while in Colombia.

More Terrible Than Death: Drugs, Violence and America's War in Colombia (Book)

Customer Rating:
Reviews:

"For those of us who can face learning a little more than the fragmentary snapshots in the news, this book offers a good deal of information about what is happening every day in Colombia. Colombia is one of the key countries in the world today - the hinge around which Latin American development, narcotrafficking and civil war with massive US support revolve. This book gives a brilliant in depth picture of life in that country. A brave and frightening book." A wealth of information about Colombia, a great book if you are thinking about renting a Vocation or Holiday Vocation or Holiday property in Colombia.

"What Robin Kirk learned in her twelve years of covering Colombia for HUMAN Rights Watch, is delivered to us here. She does not give us an easy solution to drug or military issues. She gives us her experiences onsite." www.HomeIsAway.com great Holiday Apartment to Rent in Colombia.

"As already stated this book provides some good info on the people and actions that have troubled Colombia. Kirk prefaces her work by stating her biases and her position so when these biases show, especially with a slight lean towards the leftist cause (or more accurately seeming to oppose the right-wing paramilitaries moreso than the equally lost and violent leftists), the reader easily excuses this. I was more dismayed by the editing. Kirk frequently begins a story with a character that leads into another character without seeming to wrap up what she began to write about. I often felt a lost train of thought; either from the author or from my having to bounce from subject to subject. Additionally some of the writing was unclear. There were at least a few sentences that were grammatically incorrect, lacking clarity, or run-ons. I felt the material was very good but the delivery was average. There should have been better editing." If you are thinking about renting a Alternative Vacation Villas in Colombia, I would buy this book to take with you while in Colombia.

Walking Ghosts: Murder and Guerrilla Politics in Colombia (Book)

Customer Rating:
Reviews:

"This book is excellent, and that's coming from a jaded college student at the end of the semester. It is extremely readable, especially given that it is historical non-fiction, and very informative. It tells the story of the Uni?n Patri?tica, a political party founded by the FARC, a Colombian guerrilla front, by telling specific people's stories to get that aspect of the controversy. For the most part the story is told chronologically, but by changing the point of view about every chapter, Dudley keeps the reader interested. His prose is light enough to be readable without losing information, and by tying in interviews, research, and stories, he justifies his leftist tone and fills many gaps in official dialogues." www.HomeIsAway.com great Alternative Vacation Apartment to Rent in .
