I'm leaving for Georgia (Republic of) around July 15.
Part of my preparation is reading up on the country.
Georgia in the Warm Heart of the Caucasus, by Duncan Williamson at Escape Artist
Georgian Times, a Georgian e-zine (thanks for the lead, Terry!)
Behind the Silk Curtain, by Hajo at British Expat
Tbilisi Travel Guide on WikiTravel; has links to some other Georgian cities, also
Big Love: Why Americans Swoon for the Former Soviet Republic of Georgia, by Ilan Greenburg at Slate
10 Reasons to Keep Georgia on Your Travel List, by Audrey Scott at Matador Network
Georgia by Lonely Planet
Georgia travel articles from New York Times
CIA Factbook on Georgia (I can neither confirm nor deny, so don't ask.)
Beginner's Georgian, by Dodona Kiziria. Georgia has its own alphabet. Yikes.
