Foreign travellers in the Slovene karst (1537–1900)
Glavni namen knjige je, da bi z njo postali dostopni izvirni opisi slovenskih jam in kraških značilnosti, kakor so jih doživeli in zabeležili popotniki po slovenskem Krasu v nekaj preteklih stoletjih. V knjigi so zbrani (in mnogi tudi v obliki faksimila objavljeni) opisi 89 popotnikov. Ti opisi, objavljeni večinoma v malo znanih publikacijah znanstvenih poročil, nekateri pa tudi na novo odkriti v rokopisnih zbirkah, niso zanimivi zgolj za zgodovino raziskovanja in poznavanja krasa, temveč so obenem bogat vir za slovensko zgodovino nasploh, in še posebej za lokalno zgodovino ter zgodovino posameznih panog tedanjega gospodarstva (npr. promet in komunikacije), pa tudi za etnografsko podobo Krasa v preteklih stoletjih.

Slovene Karst and Caves in the Past
The caves and dramatic limestone scenery of the Slovene karst have attracted visitors for centuries. The great stalagmites and roaring underground rivers were seen by relatively few people at that time but many of them did record their experiences in diaries as well as in print. These are used in the book, which is a result of a long-time collaboration between an English historian of speleology and a Slovene historian, to describe what they saw and what they thought about it, with contemporary illustrations by contemporary artists and photographers. Modern tourism derives from the tours led by Thomas Cook who first came to Postojnska jama in 1868. Music in that cave has a very long history f...
Škocjanske jame 1920-1940
Škocjanske jame imajo bogato zgodovino. V tej knjigi je obravnavan le sorazmerno kratek čas med obema svetovnima vojnama, ko je Avstrija območje predala Italiji. Večji del Škocjanskih jam je bil raziskan pred letom 1914, zato je bil glavni cilj jamo razviti v turistično znamenitost. Jame so obiskovali že prej, a v 20. in 30. letih so si prizadevali urediti turistične poti skoz jame, z novimi mostovi in stezami, a tudi novim predorom do površja. Da bi vse to uskladili z italijanskimi zakoni, je povzročalo težave, zato so z odprtjem odlašali do leta 1923. Ob tem so jame še dodatno raziskali, premerili in o njih objavili sveže znanstvene razprave. Poročali so tudi o malo poznani usodni nesreči. Skozi celotno obdobje so posamezni vodniki, raziskovalci in upravniki napisali zelo človeško in razburljivo zgodbo. Kar knjigo dela še posebej pomembno, je izjemen prispevek italijanskih arhivov in zgodovinarjev.
