"Recommended. Graduate and special collections." - CHOICE
'This is a text that should grace the shelves of all those interested not only in heritage tourism but in the processes and dynamics of tourism development more broadly. Indeed, the level of theoretical analysis and the dissection of issues in a post-conflict, post-colonial environment reaches a high standard of excellence.' - Trevor Sofield, University of Tasmania, Australia, Journal of Heritage Tourism, Vol. 4, No. 4, November 2009
