8th edition Published: Aug 2019 512 pages / 58 maps Bradt's Ghana is the only
dedicated guidebook on the market and the most comprehensive source of travel
information on the country, written by Philip Briggs, the leading writer of
guidebooks to Africa. Catering for all types of visitors, from bar-hoppers to
birdwatchers, and covering everything from Ghana's 550km of Atlantic coastline
to its remote and sparsely populated northern border, Bradt's Ghana is the most
detailed resource for those who want to explore the country's wealth of tropical
beaches, national parks, forest reserves, cultural sites and scenic waterfalls.
It also includes more than 60 maps and is accompanied by a dedicated updated
website run by the author himself. Friendly, safe and inexpensive, Ghana is an
ideal destination for first-time visitors to Africa. It is rich in
little-visited national parks, forest reserves, cultural sites and scenic
waterfalls and blessed with bleached white beaches and the lush rainforest of
the Atlantic coastline. Updated throughout, this revised guide includes
authoritative history and wildlife sections, accommodation and restaurant
recommendations and a wealth of background and practical information. Written by
Africa expert Philip Briggs, it provides unrivalled detail and knowledge of this
little-visited nation. This edition has been updated by Sean Connolly, author of
Bradt's Senegal and a contributor to several of Bradt's African titles, who has
been visiting the continent regularly since 2008. It has been thoroughly updated
and carefully tailored to any changes in the Ghana travel scene since the last
edition.
