The book on Bela Krajina is the third in the series Za radovedneže in ljubitelje. It brings 67 texts written by 49 authors. Among them are researchers, curators, artists, cultural workers and guardians of natural and cultural heritage of Bela Krajina. Their texts, accompanied by the illustrations by Srečko Bajda, portray a soft and warm image of the small region situated between the Gorjanci mountain range in the north, Kočevski Rog in the west, and the Kolpa River in the south and south-east, and reveal its inhabitants as open-hearted and welcoming. This small border region has always been a point of intersection of historical events, of encounter of states and empires, an area of shifting borders, immigration and emigration. People who cohabited there for centuries felt strongly and immediately the consequences of historical shifts, dramatic events, wars and jarring upheavals. In spite of it all, or thanks to it, the people of Bela Krajina never saw the Kolpa River as a line that divides, and their world never ended on its left bank.
