Bring the world a little closer with these multicultural books. An excellent way for students to appreciate and learn cultural diversity in an exciting hands-on format. Each book explores the history, language, holidays, festivals, customs, legends, foods, creative arts, lifestyles, and games of the title country. A creative alternative to student research reports and a time-saver for teachers since the activities and resource material are contained in one book.
The Rough Guide to Turkey is extremely comprehensive and fun. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in Turkey, not only to those who will be visiting.
First steps to Turkey

This is the best single guidebook we've found for Turkey. We escort small groups to Turkey, and the Rough Guide is consistently the best single reference for general and historical information. Combined with the Blue Guide to Turkey, it's easy to plan your trip. As usual with the Rough Guides, it has a lot of information for many types of travelers without sacrificing cultural and historical details. Well organized, with good maps (much better than the Lonely Planet series)
Best Guide for Turkey

We used this guide in the summer of 1999 and it was by far the most comprehensive. It was willing to guide us more off the beaten path than others. Go to Turkey and bring this book!
Excellent, accurate, and detailed guide. Best we have used

We used the Rough Guide to Turkey in the summer of 99. Compared to other guides this is the best we have used. While there were a few areas that needed updating, if the guide said a tout would appear to lead you through tunnel, it would happen with uncanny accuracy. Provides almost-guide quality history with substantial detail. Only criticism was that hotel/restaurant not complete but good enough. We used for auto trip Instanbul/Capadoccia/Med coast.
