Planning a trip to Afghanistan? Bring a Baechtold! Baechtold's Best is a revolutionary concept in travel guides for adventurous and armchair travelers. Created using images and maps, Baechtold introduces the best of what each country has to offer using the premise that one good photograph and an address are enough to point the intrepid traveler in the right direction. Each guide consists of four destination categories: People, Nature, Places, and Things, accompanied by a map. For each subject, Baechtold offers a number of choices and designates a \"best.\" For Afghanistan, learn where to find the finest field for picking poppies, the sandstorm packing the most punch, and the perfect watermelon stand. Humorous and helpful, Baechtold's Best is essential to every traveler aiming to see more of Afghanistan than what's on TV.
Riverboom Publishing, Ltd. consists of Claude Baechtold, a photographer and graphic designer; Serge Michel, a journalist; Paolo Woods, a photojournalist; and David Laufer, a writer and communications expert. All but Woods, who lives in Paris, live in Switzerland.
