This book is your essential guide to getting to know the most interesting, rewarding and hip areas to stay in 50 cities around the world. Dive deep into an exciting new destination and discover the best little-known sights and things to do, plus the coolest places to eat, drink and shop to create unforgettable trips. For each of the 50 cities profiled in Secret City, we've swung the spotlight onto neighbourhoods where you can feel the rhythms of local life.

Sometimes you'll find the city's most well-trodden streets are only a short distance away, but there's a well-concealed treasure: perhaps a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cafe in Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana, a historic jazz bar in Stockholm's Gamla Stan, or an unmissable brunch spot in Brunswick, Melbourne. Elsewhere, you'll discover neighbourhoods you might not know much about but should really consider staying in: Tokyo's grungy Koenji, barnacle-clung Wapping and Rotherhithe in London, and Staten Island's North Shore in New York City. For each neighbourhood, there are out-of-the-ordinary recommendations for eating, drinking, partying and where to delve into local culture.

All of them are hand-picked by experts who know these cities inside out, and they're accompanied by maps to orient you in these exciting districts.

Volume II of Skiing Around the World has been 14 years in the making. It is all new material, with more than 600 pages of stories and photos. The major ski countries of the world, like Austria, Switzerland, Italy, France, Sweden, Norway, USA, and Canada all have new chapters that cover different resorts than in Volume I, while 25 new countries have also been added to Jimmy’s ski odyssey.

This book will give you new ideas and dreams that will inspire your ski-travel plans for years to come. Whether you want to learn of a hidden gem in the Alps, prefer to do a ski road trip through Greece or Turkey, or hike up for a few unforgettable turns in Mongolia, you can learn about it here.

It includes all new photos (more than 1100) and written material about ski locations that were not included in Volume I. It includes chapters about more than 20 countries that were not included in Volume I and it has new chapters on the major ski countries that cover different ski resorts than those in Volume I. For example, the chapter on Austria in Volume I included sections on Saalbach, St. Anton, Sölden, Innsbruck, Bad Gastein, the Pitztal, Nauders, and the Zillertal. The chapter on Austria in Volume II includes sections about Kitzbühel, the Krippenstein, Dachstein West, Altaussee, Tauplitz, the Montafon Valley, Ischgl and the Paznaun Valley.

As in Volume I, this all-new book includes famous ski resorts, insider tips about powder havens that few people have discovered, and exotic locations that even the most avid skiers have probably never dreamed of skiing. In Volume II, you can read about household names like Kitzbühel, Aspen, or La Plagne, you can discover little known pearls like Røldal in Norway, Glencoe, Scotland, and Cerler in Spain, and you can enjoy adventures on skis in exotic destinations like Venezuela, Uganda, and Kamchatka.

Monocle's latest book is a celebration of the Nordic region, with some surprises, quirks and - maybe - a sauna or two along the way. Monocle's journalists, editors and photographers have returned time and again to all corners of northern Europe for insights, inspiration and ideas for living better. This book isn't about hammering the overhyped hygge trend or fussing over foamy food.

Much the opposite - it's about a shared but distinct set of values that have helped varied nations excel in quiet diplomacy, thoughtful design and reasoned debate. Monocle looks beyond the cliches and uncovers the folks, firms and stories that help the region rank highly for everything in everything from art and architecture to eating well. Far from lumping these different nations together, the Monocle team will highlight the people, places and products that show the Nordics in all their nuances: lessons we can all learn from makers in Norway's high north or retailers reaching higher in Reykjavik; the firms building bridges in Denmark or selling Swedish soft power abroad.

The world can learn a lot from our knowing northern neighbours - and The Monocle Book of the Nordics is the ideal place to start.

Journeying by river provides the perfect opportunity to discover new places or see a new side of a familiar destination. Presented here are 50 remarkable and memorable trips chosen because of the stunning scenery they pass through as well as the historic and cultural sites that can be visited from side excursions. Some cover lengthy trips such as a cruise on the Danube that passes through ten countries from its source before emptying into the Black Sea; others are shorter but have a strong, unifying theme, such as Portugal's Douro River that was built on viticulture.

In Southeast Asia, the leisurely pace of a river trip along the Yangtze, Mekong or Ayeryawaddy Rivers allows time to take in the ancient cultures and exotic landscapes. Beautiful countryside, wine-rich valleys and dramatic gorges are the highlights of a river journey; the scenery is constant and ever changing. But as well as the natural wonders, there are also remarkable man-made engineering feats to experience as you pass through intricate lock systems or under state-of-the-art bridges.

All the important landmarks and cities, scenery and architecture are described for each journey, and each one is illustrated with a route map.
