At the invitation of Georgia's Ministry of Culture, Magnum photographers Antoine D'Agata, Jonas Bendiksen, Thomas Dworzak, Martine Franck, Alex Majoli, Gueorgui Pinkhassov, Martin Parr, Paolo Pellegrin, Mark Power and Alec Soth set out to describe the country, each pursuing their own theme and working in their own way, chronicling their journey in words as well as pictures. A 20-page chapter is devoted to each photographer's work.

The book also features a foreword by Dworzak, Magnum's Tbilisi-based photographer; a timeline of Georgia's history; an essay by Wendell Steavenson - who vividly renews her acquaintance with the country that she came to know while living there during the 1990s; and a chapter featuring the best of Magnum's archive of photographs of Georgia - including Robert Capa's 1947 photo-essay, made while visiting the Soviet Union with John Steinbeck. The book opens and closes with a series of postcards showing some of the country's iconic attractions, old and new, chosen with Georgia's President Mikhiel Saakashvili and Minister of Culture, Nicholas Rurua.

The book has been edited by Chris Boot, and designed exquisitely in the manner of a travel journal by Untitled.
