Urban Development in the Cities of Georgia from 1801 to 1918

Essays presented in the book have been written by David Khoshtaria, Manon Liluashvili, Natia Natsvlishvili, and Giorgi Chanishvili. They highlight the evolution of urban planning and architectural design in five major Georgian cities (Tbilisi, Kutaisi, Batumi, Poti, and Akhaltsikhe) and two spa towns (Borjomi and Abastumani). Aspects of urban history are discussed in a broader political, economic, social, and cultural context.
