Jifi Hanzelka and Miroslav Zikmund once again penetrate into the very heart of the nation, and bring to the reader its essence. "The beautiful people in the mountains of Kurdistan" are the subject of this volume, with their legends, "full of heroism, hope and tender poetry". Legends of the origin of the Kurdish people, ancient tales of the nation's wealth - both abstract and concrete - are related as are present-day legends such as that of the building of the magnificient Dokan dam. Kurdistan in fact and legends, past, present and future, is introduced in words and photographs by world travellers J.Hanzelka and M.Zikmund for their readers to share.
