The Moonsea
Its waters are the deep purple of the most precious amethyst; its shores hold some of the most dangerous locations in Faerun. It is the Moonsea, home to Zhentil Keep, the Citadel of the Raven, and thousands of ordinary folk who merely want to make an honest living.
Hark to the words of Melandryll Belarod, the bard whose writings form the bulk of this material. He has experienced firsthand the horrors of ruined Hulburg, the desolation of Sulasspryn, and the stench of Mulmaster. His travels aboard the Devawing have produced this chronicle of the towns and people of the Moonsea, including both havens and dangers. Belarod knows of the Citadel of the Raven, a ten-mile-long series of fortresses and barracks, site of a terrifying betrayal. He has also evaded the Zhentilar, the crack forces garrisoned at Zhentil Keep.
In this product are a 64-page Reference Guide for the Dungeon Master, a 32-page Player's Guide, and a four-color poster map of the Moonsea region.

A good source of information, but written in many parts in a very perfunctory, bland manner. Books from this era of D&D are usually a bit more readable, less baldly stated groups of facts.
Still, a useful resource to have for a DM.

Great supplement which includes a detailed DM book and a Player gazeteer. Quite a lot of adventure hooks, too. Classic TSR era Forgotten Realms gold.

Lots of lore and adventure hooks for the Moonsea region, detailing its history, the current state-of-affairs, as well as rumors and interesting locations,
