An on-foot exploration of Armenia and Georgia, with recipes woven through.
Green Mountains is the final instalment of Caroline Eden’s ‘colour trilogy’, following on from her multi-award winning books, Black Sea and Red Sands
In a series of invigorating walks, from the stormy sunbaked valleys of southern Armenia to the jagged peaks of northern Georgia, epic landscapes and fascinating cities come alive via encounters with priests, fruit pickers, tea harvesters, legendary singers, chess masters and heroic alpinists.
The journeying finally ends where this trio of books began, on the Black Sea, and with two conclusions: that no feast can beat a post-walk meal and that the green mountains of the Caucasus are capable of transforming just about anyone into a pilgrim.
