In the fifth installment of his Travel Diaries series, musician, teacher and historian Glyn Williams draws on his long association with Moscow and some of the adventures living there facilitated.

The Baltic States are explored in the first part of the book, Hamburg and Copenhagen in the second before the reader walks the streets of the Russian capital alongside a guide who knows the city intimately and loves it dearly.

This collection of journals is a unique insight into European and Muscovite life. Warm, witty and intensely personal, this book is a series of journeys along the road less traveled.

Glyn Williams was born in 1951 and brought up in the northwest of England. He studied music at the universities of Liverpool and Reading, and spent twenty-three years (1982-2005) teaching music at the Liverpool Community College. In 2005 he moved to the British International School Moscow, where in his spare time he contributed reviews to The Opera Critic Magazine. Between 2012 and 2017 he wrote a regular history column published in the match programme of his hometown non-league football team Prescot Cables (published partly in his book A Football Club in Prescot - published independently, 2020) as well as a number of articles on music in Liverpool for The Liverpool History Journal. As far back as 1998 he has written hitherto unpublished accounts of his travels in the USA, Canada, Cyprus, Germany, Austria, Italy, Russia, Ireland, the Baltic States, and the UK. His first collection, Travels in Central Europe, describes visits to Germany, Vienna and Budapest, his second, Combing the Celtic Fringe, covers tours in Scotland, Ireland and Wales. The Sweet Life describes adventures in Italy, Spain, Cyprus and Prague while Those Blue Remembered Hills is a collection of adventures within the British Isles.
