About the Book
In November 2008, Paul and Nancy Osgood flew to Tunisia for a brief look at its culture, landscape and architecture. We met old friends and made new ones as part of a Vantage Travel tour. This book is a remembrance of the trip.

- Medinas of Tunis* and Sousse*
- Ancient Roman ruins of Carthage*, Dougga*, Sufetula and El-Jem*
- Bardo Museum's Roman mosaics
- Village of Sidi Bou Said
- American World War II Memorial

- Great Dry Salt Lake, Chott el-Jerid
- The Sahara Desert
- Cave dwellings in the Berber village of Matmata
- Fortified Berber ksar village
- The island of Djerba
- Kairouan* with its Great Mosque
* UNESCO World Heritage Sites
