What if you could see Dalmatia the way your great grandparents saw it? Who would you meet, where would you go, if you could visit Split or Dubrovnik 150 years ago?
The Time Traveler's Guide To Dalmatia shows the cities of the Adriatic through eyewitness accounts of the men and women who travelled up and down the coast from 1835 to 1914. Selections from dozens of manuscripts bring 19th century Dalmatia to life, while illustrations and art show what you would have seen firsthand.
Explore each Dalmatian city through sections on what life was like, descriptions of the people, food and drink, and top 3 sights. Use this guide to visit Zadar, Šibenik, Split, Hvar, Korčula, Mlijet, the Neretva Delta, and Dubrovnik like a local from another era.

Love For A Timeless Land
History isn't what we think it is. Often the past seems behind us but that just isn't so, it's really inside.
We already think of our family this way. A child has her mother's eyes, her grandmother's smile, her grandfather's curly hair.
Why can't a place be like that?
This is the romance of Dalmatia, that 2,000 years of history are right at your fingertips. Austrian forts look down on Venetian palaces, next door are the ruins of a Roman villa, and hidden in the earth below your feet are treasures from ancient Illyria.
The Time Traveler's Guide To Dalmatia grew out of my desire to capture this idea and share it with you: those generations of love and war and triumph in the Adriatic still live. We can still see them if only we try.
