The Amber Trail: A Journey of Discovery by Bicycle, from the Baltic Sea to the Aegean

By Natascha Scott-Stokes

Book Overview

From the Baltic to the Mediterranean there was once a trade in amber. With the opening up of Eastern Europe, Natascha Scott-Stokes and her new husband chose to bicycle their way in search of the past while experiencing the potential of a reunited Europe. For Natascha, who spent part of her childhood in what was then West Germany, it proved an especially poignant journey. Is there such a person as a European? This is just one of the questions the author tried to answer during her trip from Gdansk to Thessaloniki.
