SUMMARY OF THE BOOK: ROZAFA is a virtual tour of one of Albania's legendary castles, the site of epic battles throughout history.
The Rozafa Castle in Shkodra is a hidden gem among the medieval fortresses of the world. Beautifully and strategically perched over three rivers and the Shkodra Lake, it was known as a key to the Adriatic Sea and thus became the site of important battles. It is still undiscovered by the masses of war buffs and professional historians—“undiscovered” because so little has been written about its history because so few western tourists have ever ventured into Albania.
The e-book is written to be a virtual tour guide or to accompany those who visit the castle personally. For those who can't visit, it's the next best thing. The chapters are called "waypoints" and evoke the imagery of a tour guide pausing at different points on the tour to talk to his/her tour group. In fact, the author himself has guided scores of castle tours over the past twenty years.
Anyone who wants to learn more about this beautiful fortress can use this guide to take a virtual tour from anywhere in the world, since each Waypoint chapter begins with a photo and precise Google coordinates.
This e-book is one of the many efforts underway to bring Shkodra's rich history to light. The author is the translator and editor of "The Siege of Shkodra" by Marin Barleti.
