Summary: | North Caucasus:A Pioneering Piece of Literature <p>This is the first ever English-language architectural guide to this region that remains terra incognita for many even in our globalized times. Architecturally the North Caucasus is home to a mix of traditional and Soviet-era buildings and contemporary glass and steel buildings reminiscent of Dubai. The book covers seven autonomous republics (Adygea, Karachay-Cherkessia, Ingushetia, Kabardino-Balkaria, Dagestan, Chechnya, North Ossetia-Alania) and two Russian territories (Stavropol Krai and the southern foothills of Krasnodar Krai, and Sochi).</p> |
