5.0 out of 5 stars Nothing to Fear About Estonians Dec 31 2010
By GMK - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Xenophobe's Guide to the Estonians is a short but informative book that can easily be read in one sitting. It provides humorous insights into the Estonian character that I found to be fairly accurate based on my experiences. I think it would be helpful reading for anyone planning to visit Estonia or for anyone acquainted with Estonians. As with any group, there are always many exceptions to the characterizations contained in the book, but on the whole the authors have captured the ethnic characteristics and present them in an enjoyable and very readable format.

Very good book, highly recommended even if only for the laugh. I wasn't expecting anything at first, but I got a good kick out of this one.
