Czechoslovakia:The Rough Guide

This guide covers all things Czech and Slovak - from castles to contraceptives, hiking in the Tatra mountains, caving in Slovakia and prime minister Vaclav Havel's absurdist poetry. The chapter on Prague alone is a compendium of the city. The author returned to the country in the run-up to the first elections and later, in the autumn, to take stock of the changes taking place in Czechoslovakia, not least in practical matters such as new street names.
