Kaukasus likner på Alpene, men er høyere, villere, mer uberørt og eksotisk. Trolig har ingen vest-europeer de seneste ti årene vandret mer til fots enn norske Richard Bærug i dette himmelsk vakre fjellområdet. Fra storslagne fjelltopper bukter svulmende isbreer seg ned mot irrgrønne daler prydet av rhododendronskoger og en overveldende blomsterprakt. Med eld- gamle sledeveier og feiende flotte fjellstier er Kaukasus intet mindre enn et drømmeterreng for turgåere. Det er fortsatt et eventyrland slik Hamsun beskrev det for litt over hundre år siden.

Boka beskriver 80 vakre vandringer til fots i den kaukasiske fjellheimen; både i Georgia, Armenia, Aserbajdsjan, Russland og Tyrkia.

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.
