WINDS OF SORROW
Travels in and around Transylvania.
by Alan Ogden
“Winds of Sorrow” is an eclectic collection of essays compiled by the author during his travels to Transylvania in northern Romania between 1998 and 2004. What was at first a mere inkling of a name on a map in a faraway Ruritanian land unfolds into an exotic medley of fascinating people and picturesque places. The complex truths behind the convoluted history of Transylvania are revealed as the reader journeys to the medieval towns and villages of this former Principality, once famous throughout the courts of Europe. These are journeys not to be missed!
“Ogden demonstrates with tremendous enthusiasm that, far from being an irrelevant backwater, Transylvania is crucial to a true understanding of Europe” [The Spectator]
