'ARMENIA AND KARABAKH' EARNS BOOK AWARD
'Armenia and Karabakh: The Stone Garden Travel Guide' by Matthew Karanian
LOS ANGELES, Calif.-Writer's Digest Magazine has recognized 'Armenia
and Karabakh: The Stone Garden Travel Guide' by Matthew Karanian as
one of the Best Reference Guides published in 2013.
The competition, which was open to all independently published books
with a 2013 copyright date, cited 'Armenia and Karabakh' for its
outstanding presentation of images and text. The book was awarded
Honorable Mention.
"This is a slick and professional travel guide," wrote a judge as part
of the magazine's critique of the book. "The technique and presentation
of photography is extremely impressive, as is the reference section."
The book's coverage of the Armenian Genocide also figured into the
evaluation. The judge's commentary on the book states "I was a bit
concerned about how the author would handle the politically sensitive
subject of the Armenian Genocide of the early twentieth century. I
am impressed that he plunged into it without apology but didn't let
it dominate the guidebook."
This is the 21st annual competition sponsored by Writer's Digest
Magazine. Winners will be featured in the March 2014 edition of
the magazine.
'Armenia and Karabakh: The Stone Garden Guide' is available for
purchase from Barnes and Noble and independent booksellers, and can
be previewed at www.ArmeniaTravelGuide.com.
