A comprehensive travel guide to the stunning Mediterranean archipelago of Malta and Gozo, The Travellers' Guide to Malta & Gozo presents an authoritative and richly informed portrait of two of Europe's most historically layered destinations. Christopher Kininmonth chronicles the islands' remarkable heritage — from the ancient megalithic temples of Ħaġar Qim and Mnajdra, among the oldest freestanding structures in the world, to the grandeur of Valletta's Baroque architecture and the storied legacy of the Knights of St. John. The guide details practical travel information alongside cultural and historical insights, making it an indispensable companion for the discerning visitor. Written with the elegance and authority of a seasoned traveller, Kininmonth illustrates how Malta and Gozo offer an extraordinary convergence of Phoenician, Arab, Norman, and British influences within a compact but endlessly fascinating landscape. This newly revised edition ensures the information remains current and relevant, cementing its status as a classic of Mediterranean travel literature.
