"Backpackernes bibel" er ofte en sikker vinner, også for Island. Her får du det aller meste av informasjon du kan komme til å trenge, i en grundig og oversiktlig guide. Lonely Planet-guidene inneholder anbefalinger i flere priskategorier, og tar for seg et stort spenn av aktiviteter, steder og attraksjoner, og er dermed et godt valg for de fleste reisende. Guidene inneholder få bilder, og er dermed først og fremst en informativ, heller enn en inspirerende guide - men den er likevel garantert å vekke reiselysten i deg.

After eight years living in Copenhagen, an English journalist, driven by a passion for languages and mountains, finally rebels. With little more than an assortment of Earl Grey teabags, Danish candles and a map, Georgina Howard abandons her all-too-cosy, cinnamon-scented lifestyle and drives south. The journey leads to wild and craggy landscapes in the Basque Pyrenees on the French/Spanish border, where place names are written in a bizarre, foreign tongue full of 'x's and 'z's.

Losing her heart to this beautiful land and her pride to the inscrutability of the language, Howard moves into an isolated barn in a mountain hamlet. While pagan festivals reverberate through the valleys, her Basque neighbours - farmers, shepherds, a gravedigger and a champion female lumberjack - observe her, bemused. Only when her daughter, Marion, is born - after an unsuccessful relationship with an eccentric Basque miller - do Howard's neighbours drop their reserve and welcome her into their homes.

Taking Marion's upbringing upon themselves, they fatten her up on spicy Basque sausages and black bean stews, teach her Basque nursery rhymes and train her to milk sheep. Meanwhile, Howard converts a barn into the headquarters of an international business providing walking, culture and language tours. Resigned to the ineptitude of their new neighbour, with patience and amusement, the locals tow her car out of ditches and teach her how to stack wood, catch mice, unblock septic tanks and drink wine from a leather gourd.

In the Footsteps of Smugglers follows the adventures of an outsider: a single mother, linguist, cosmopolitan nomad and cultural chameleon who paradoxically makes her home among an indigenous people deeply rooted in their land, with a language and culture dating back to Stone-Age times. Unwittingly, she repays their hospitality by luring anti-terrorist squads, blackmailers and spies into their midst as the dramatic past of the Basque Country proves to have unexpected and far-reaching consequences. An inspiring, humorous travel memoir, Bradt's In the Footsteps of Smugglers weaves behind-the-scenes vignettes of daily rural life and historical research to produce authentic insights on all things Basque, threaded with a rhapsody on the theme of identity.

«Ingen mann er en øy handler om gjenoppbyggingen av Utøya. Jørgen Watne Frydnes ble ansatt for å lede dette arbeidet. (...) AUF ville 'ta Utøya tilbake' het det allerede i 2011. (...) Det de unge som overlevde massakren ikke tenkte på, var hvordan planene virket på foreldrene som satt igjen uten barn. (...) Frydnes skriver om disse konfliktene på en god og varm måte. (...) Boken blir dermed en interessant studie i vår kollektive sorgprosess.»
Gunnar Kagge, Aftenposten
Etter angrepet på Utøya 22. juli 2011 var AUF fast bestemt på «å ta øya tilbake». Det skulle vise seg å bli en komplisert prosess. De fysiske og psykiske skadene var enorme, og protestene var ofte voldsomme.

Etter angrepet på Utøya 22. juli 2011 var AUF fast bestemt på «å ta øya tilbake». Det skulle vise seg å bli en komplisert prosess. De fysiske og psykiske skadene var enorme, og protestene var ofte voldsomme. Denne umulige oppgaven ble i all hovedsak lagt på en persons skuldre, Jørgen Watne Frydnes.

Ingen mann er en øy gir oss et unikt innblikk i hvordan den konfliktfylte prosessen har vært for tusenvis av etterlatte, pårørende og overlevende, med en liten øy i Tyrifjorden i sentrum. I dag er Utøya, med daglig leder Jørgen Watne Frydnes i spissen, i toppsjiktet av historieformidlingssteder i verden. Det nye Hegnehuset, som omkranser det gamle Kafebygget der 13 mennesker ble drept, er flere ganger kåret til et av verdens viktigste nye bygg.

I Ingen mann er en øy blir leseren tatt med på ettertenksomme gåturer rundt Utøya gjennom fire årstider, der det vakre og det grusomme går hånd i hånd, og der fortiden avdekkes lag for lag. Hvordan har det vært mulig å skape noe meningsfylt ut av det meningsløse?

First published in the 1950s under the editorship of EE Benest and later Konrad Nussbaum, the Imray map of the French inland waterway system has always been regarded as the essential reference for planning a visit to France by boat.

The map continues to cover the Low Countries and the western part of Germany and now also includes large scale insets of the Paris region and northeast France. The scale remains at 1:1 500 000
