This thoroughly updated fourth edition of Bradt's Lapland is the only standalone guidebook in English to this wintry wonderland, a region spanning the northernmost fringes of Norway, Sweden and Finland where there are as many reindeer as people, it never gets dark in summer and never gets light in mid-winter. In this new edition, expert author James Proctor covers all the latest developments, including the most up-to-date information on where to see the Northern Lights (Lapland is the best region in the world for Northern Lights viewing) and where to go husky sledding, reviews of the treehouse hotels which have sprung up across the region, the latest details of how to fly directly to one of the Europe's most far-flung destinations from the UK and USA, plus information on a wide range of summer and winter adventures, from hiking and wild swimming to snowmobiling, wilderness stays and staying in the Icehotel. Everybody has heard of Lapland.

Everybody knows it's the home of Father Christmas. Yet remarkably few people can accurately pinpoint Lapland on a map. Bradt's Lapland lifts the lid off this little-known, enigmatic region and shows that there's much more to Lapland than the man with the long white beard and the red suit.

This is a land of elemental beauty with plenty to offer anyone who's looking to explore the great outdoors without the great crowds. Lapland is vast and empty, a place of indigenous villages, sweeping forests, mighty waterfalls - the raw side of nature here is the region's defining and inescapable characteristic and no visit is complete without leaving the creature comforts of the nearest town well behind. Whether on an organized tour or travelling independently, Bradt's Lapland is the essential travel companion.

En reise til de vakreste kirkene og klostrene øst i Europa – fra Jerusalem til Finnmark.

Dette er en annerledes reisebok om de skjønneste kirker og klostre øst i Europa. Forfatter Richard Bærug har pirket i fasaden og kommet tett på menneskene. Hvem er de, disse munkene og nonnene, prestene og andre troende? Hva kan ortodokse, katolikker og protestanter åndelig gi oss i dag?

Østkirken står midt oppe i det kanskje største bruddet på nærmere tusen år. Den russisk-ortodokse kirken, der prestene i sovjettiden nesten ble utryddet og lederne stadig mer kontrollert av KGB, brøt i 2018 med moderkirken i Konstantinopel. Gjennom samtaler med troende rulles mangfoldet og det historiske lappeteppet ut, preget av dragkampen mellom troen på Gud og maktambisjonene til politiske ledere.
Mellom søken etter sannhet og gevinster fra løgner og legender.

Bli med på en dramatisk, men ytterst vakker reise fra Jerusalem gjennom Armenia, Georgia, Tyrkia, Kypros, Athos, Hellas, Bulgaria, Romania, Moldova, Ukraina, Belarus (Hviterussland), Litauen, Latvia, Estland, Russland, Finland og Norge.
