5.0 out of 5 stars A Splendid Little Journey, 23 Aug 2007
By Jason B. Miko (Tucson, AZ USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
While many vacationers are jetting off to the likes of the US Rockies or Florida beaches, fashionable European capitals or the Caribbean, Chris Deliso opens the window on a small, relatively undiscovered part of Europe, and reveals a delightful region of beauty, charm, culture, history and warmth. The lake region of Macedonia, which includes the enchanting lakes of Ohrid and Prespa, is made available to us through this brief travelogue in which Deliso travels with both companions and his family, stopping in little out-of-the-way villages and hamlets in Greece, Albania and Macedonia. Written in an easy, almost laidback style, Deliso throws in archeology, history, art, flora, fauna, geography, gastronomy, culture and a host of other subjects as he takes his readers on bumpy roads and across the placid lakes, spending time with the hospitable and warm folks who live there. Before you're halfway through the book, you might find yourself booking a trip to Macedonia to discover for yourself a unique and unspoiled part of Europe still unknown to most Westerners.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nostalgia.., 20 May 2008
By Viktor Vojnovski (Nice, France) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A predominantly vivid and lucid exploration which is a delight to read. Transports the reader into the ancient world of the Macedonian lakes, and at many points during the book, it is as if Deliso has managed to stop time and create a film-like frozen scene where grandeur takes over. There was a high contrast change between the first fast-paced half, and the family vacation half that followed, but both were equally enjoyable and to me it was the perfect demonstration to the diversity of the lakes. The book has certainly made me long nostalgically for the vacations I've spent at the many places Deliso visits, and I've made a promise to myself to do a tour of the lakes during my next visit to Macedonia.
