 Oil Wrestlers  -  N. Biegman
Oil wrestling, performed by 'Pehlivans', originated in Iran. It spread to Northern India, Pakistan, Turkey, and in the Balkans especially to Macedonia and adjoining areas. In Iran and Turkey it is a national sport. In the Balkan the tournaments mostly happen in remote villages at irregular times.
The Pehlivans, who wear heavy leather breeches gathered in at the knee, smear themselves with oil. The champions are models of male virtues like strength, stamina and honour within their communities. Their ideal diet is four kilos of meat and half a kilo of honey a day.
ISBN 9789068327410; KIT Publishers, Amsterdam; Paperback; 136 p. ; 2008 ; English.

 Macedonia: The Bradt Travel Guide  -  door Thammy Evans
Stunning mountain terrain makes Macedonia a prime destination for hikers; the craggy landscape also shelters hundreds of monasteries, mosques and churches. This guide offers a comprehensive perspective on Macedonia.
Paperback 256 pages (March 1, 2004); Publisher: Bradt Travel Guides
 Macedonia: Warlords and Rebels in the Balkans  -  door John Phillips
A bloody rebellion by Albanian guerrillas demanding equal rights in Macedonia has killed and wounded thousands of people and led to fears that the crisis will embroil Kosovo, Albania, Bulgaria and Greece. International intervention brought an uneasy halt to the blood-letting last summer, but hardline Macedonian nationalists have blocked full implementation of the peace agreement and there are now fears that the National Liberation Army will renew its campaign, leading to more ethnic cleansing in the heart of Europe. Phillips covers the front line fighting as well as the behind-the-scenes diplomacy in Skopje and shows just how damaging the present conflict is for any hope of a lasting Balkan peace.
Hardcover 224 pages (July 2004); Publisher: I.B. Tauris

 Bibliotheek Macedonië  -  National and University Library "St. Kliment Ohridski"
The rich library tradition on the soil of the Republic of Macedonia whose roots stretch back to the deeds of the pan-Slavonic educators St. Cyril (826-869) and St. Methodius (820-885) is the same foundation on which the Library began to build up and develop its activity. Its patron saint, Clement of Ohrid (830-916), established the first monastic library in Ohrid in the Monastery of St. Panteleimon, and he is thus the founder of librarianship in these parts.
The initial fund of books in the National and University Library "St. Kliment Ohridski" at its foundation in 1944 amounted to some 150,000 library items. The majority of these were inherited from the Central Library of the pre-war Faculty of Philosophy in Skopje, founded in 1920 in Skopje.
