From the Publisher:

Edge of Time is essential reading for anyone planning to visit Armenia. The First Edition, which was published in 2001, sold out within one year. Today, the Revised Second Edition (published in 2002) is still the only comprehensive travel guide that specializes in both Armenia and Karabagh as primary travel destinations. Armchair travelers will love this book for its magnificent photography and its wealth of background information on Armenian history and the arts.

About the Author:

Matthew Karanian and Robert Kurkjian have each worked in Armenia for periods of up to ten months at a time and they have traveled extensively throughout the region during each of the past several years. Their previous publication is the coffee table photography book "Out of Stone."
