Ukraine - Culture!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I went to Kiev, Ukraine and villages surrounding Chernobyl from January 2-10. This book was a big help. I read it before I went and then took it to read on the plane. I learned not to whistle! They think it is calling the devil. The customs and etiquette guides were very helpful.
This is a good resource.

I purchased this book, based on other reviews, before travelling to the Ukraine. It was very helpful. I recommend reading it in advance of your trip. And, do remember to bring it along. This book met or exceeded my expectations in all areas.
Very well written

A great travel resource, I read this after a trip to Ukraine to better understand interactions we'd had. Boy, do I wish I had read it *before* traveling. I will make a point of seeking out country-specific books from this series to get a jump on transitioning to a new culture.
