Montenegro - The Bradt Travel Guide  (3rd edition published March 2008) - Annalise Rellie

This is the only detailed general guide to Montenegro in English that I am aware of. The first edition seemed to be aimed at a rather different market than Bradt's other guides to the region, lacking some of the practical information required by independent travellers. However I believe there have been significant changes in subsequent editions. The third edition includes a section on excursions outside Montenegro's borders. I can't resist adding a personal note: the photo of Kotor on the front cover was taken by ... me.

The Mountains of Montenegro - Cicerone Guide  (1st edition published June 2007) - Rudolf Abraham

Montenegro has great potential for walking and trekking, but until recently it has been frustratingly different to find information in English about the country's mountains. This guide aims to fill the gap, with descriptions of hiking trails in Durmitor, Orjen, Prokletije, and a number of other mountain ranges. A few one-day hikes are included, but the focus of the book is on longer treks for which you will need to carry a tent.
