The Bradt Travel Guide is the best guide to Transcaucasia currently available. The Guide is comprehensive in its scope of coverage of Georgia, with reliable details on sights, lodging, restaurants, etc. -- but the book is most notable for its outstanding background information regarding this little-known region. The history and development of the region, the present political situation, the ecological state of affairs, as well as cultural, religious and culinary background are well covered. Almost as a bonus, the book contains a good chapter for a short visit to neighboring Armenia. The author is an experienced travel writer (see also his "Rough Guide to Romania") and it shows. You really can't go wrong with this book if you find yourself travelling to this fascinating, off-the-beaten-path part of the world.
