This is the monochrome version of my published book, North Cyprus, One Man in a Bus, a travelogue of a guided tour around this little country, barely larger than Cornwall in the UK. The colour version has to be expensive, because Amazon take 40% of the price and charge another wad for printing. This will be better value, and the colour pictures can be found from the website links at the end of the book.There is also a short guide, 'North Cyprus, One Man in a Pocket', that you can use to get around on your own. And... it really will fit in a pocket. It has all the information, without my narrative.50% of the royalties of all my North Cyprus books are being donated To Kyrenia Animal Rescue.
