AKEROYD, JOHN.

The Historic Countryside of the Saxon Villages of Southern Transylvania.

Mures: Fundatia Adept, 2006. 9789730045338. 1st edition. "One of Europe's least known cultural treasures, the countryside presents a remarkable survival of medieval landscape: fortified churches, unspoilt villages, non-intensive mixed farming in ecological balance with nature and wildlife, set amongst old-growth woodland and wildflower-rich hay-meadows..The special qualities of the Saxon Villages will only survive if tradition and innovation can be combined to yield a sustainable economic furure and modern quality of life, while preserving a unique sense of place. Farming and quality food production, together with traditional crafts and eco-tourism, are at the heart of both sustainable development and the conservation of biodiversity." Pp.86, illustrated throughout with colour photographs. Paperback. Scarce. VG.
