Ferwanderweg E5
Ordinær pris 259,00 krVil du krysse Alpene? Her er din turguide! Vi har pakket inn all vår erfaring på den europeiske langdistanseturstien E5 i denne boken og vil gjerne gi deg råd og kunnskap om ruten mellom Bodensjøen og Verona. Vi beskriver hele E5 fra grensetrekanten til Bodensjøen via Oberstdorf i Allgäu til Bolzano i Sør-Tirol og videre til Verona i Middelhavet. Selvfølgelig beskriver vi også det vakre og ekstremt populære alternativet Oberstdorf - Merano i detalj, med insidertips fra fjellskolene som kjører "Panoramastien". har gjort det til et program. Du bestemmer over dine krav og erfaring: Sett sammen din egen tur fra totalt 30 dagsetapper, 600 kilometer og 7 varianter av den vanlige ruten fra lett til svært krevende - hytte og informasjonskataloger med kontaktdetaljer, samt informasjon om påmelding og avkjøringsmuligheter med offentlig transport hjelper deg med dette. Hvilken del av alpeoverfarten vil du ha? Den mellom Oberstdorf og Syd-Tirol med alpine utfordringer, taggete rygger, brusende fjellbekker, glitrende klare fjellvann, isbreverden og hyttemagi? Eller vil du heller nyte en rolig fottur mellom Bozen og Verona: gjennom panoramautsikt og kulinariske høydepunkter? Gjennom kulturell innsikt i utilslørte, sjarmerende fjellandsbyer som bare en turgåer kan få? Og selvfølgelig en piknik under stjernene på Opera di Verona, med rødvin og pecorino? I de sørlige Dolomittene kunne du også gå i Europas historiske fotspor og krysse grenser som det en gang ble kjempet hardt om: i et vakkert monument for fred, Pasubio-fjellene. Eller vil du rett og slett gå mot opplevelsen av langturer – preget av natur, kultur, møter, redusert forbruk og mye, mye tid? Den europeiske langdistanseturstien E5 kombinerer alt dette. Noe som er så mye mer enn den populære alpeovergangen fra Oberstdorf til Meran. For å fullt ut kunne nyte stiens allsidighet inneholder boken følgende elementer: Fire seksjonsbeskrivelser oppsummerer de involverte en-ukes seksjonene, samt karakteren og gir deg informasjon om varighet, beste turtid og hvordan å komme dit. Detaljerte scenebeskrivelser i vanlig, prisvinnende Rother-kvalitet viser deg veien så detaljert at du kan nå reisemålet ditt trygt, selv i dårlig vær.
Informative høydeprofiler for hver etappe, kombinert med turkartutsnitt og illustrasjoner, gir nødvendig oversikt. Informasjonsbokser bringer deg nærmere ting som er verdt å se og vite underveis og, der det er hensiktsmessig, forklarer det synlige panoramaet. Til slutt sørger en liten ordbok med de viktigste frasene som en E5-vandrer sør for Alpene bør ha med seg en uttrykksfull finale i Italia. Ha det gøy på tur!

Fungi Collected in Shropshire and Other Neighbourhoods
Ordinær pris 249,00 krVenture into the woods alongside a pioneering female mycologist. This one-of-a-kind, keepsake volume celebrates the timeless fascination of fungi. Very little is known about M.
F. Lewis—not even her first name. Mysterious, prolific, and deeply enamored with the world of mushrooms, she left us a treasure trove of mycological illustrations.
For over forty years, from 1860 to 1902, Lewis rambled across England and Wales, recording an astonishing biodiversity of fungi. Her delicately drawn, boldly colored images evoke the strange and powerful beauty of this kingdom. This handsome volume collects hundreds of Lewis's watercolors, contextualized by a foreword from mycologist Dr. Patricia Ononiwu Kaishian.
It's a must-have for today's mushroom lovers who are curious about the history of mycology and for any admirer of vintage botanical illustration who wants to discover something different. FASCINATING FUNGI: Mushrooms are having a real moment, but they've always captured our imaginations, even in Victorian times. Lewis's gorgeous artwork offers the modern mushroom fan a new way to appreciate their favorite kingdom.

Reis bedre - en guide til større inntrykk med mindre avtrykk
Ordinær pris 399,00 krÅ reise kan gi oss sterke inntrykk og fantastiske opplevelser, men for mange kan klimaavtrykket og de negative konsekvensene fra reisene våre også gi et snev av dårlig samvittighet.
Som enkeltmennesker er det å fly langt og ofte blant det aller verste vi gjør for klimaet. I en tid der isbreer smelter, havnivået stiger og ekstremværet blir stadig villere, kan vi ikke fortsette å reise på den måten vi gjør det i dag.
Innsiktsfullt og med stort engasjement forklarer Trygve Sunde Kolderup hvordan vi kan reise mer skånsomt og klimavennlig. Gjennom inspirerende eksempler viser han hva vi bør tenke på når vi planlegger våre neste turer - enten det er i jobb- eller feriesammenheng. Vi skal ikke slutte å reise, men vi må endre måten vi reiser på. For hvis vi reiser bedre, er det mulig å få store opplevelser med mindre avtrykk.

UK: Cycling in Surrey
Ordinær pris 199,00 krBradt's new cycling guide to Surrey - part of a growing series designed for the saddle bag - offers 21 routes, each including comprehensive directions plus contextual exploration of history, wildlife and culture, written by avid cyclist and historian Ross Hamilton. Each route links to OS Explorer maps and, where relevant, National Cycle Network routes, while QR codes connect with downloadable GPX maps via the komoot app, enabling navigation by smartphone. With a dedicated bike-hire section (so you have an alternative if your bicycle isn't suitable for a particular ride) and accommodation suggestions, this book is an indispensable travel companion for two-wheeled adventures.
Once a relatively sparsely populated and rustic area despite its proximity to London, present-day Surrey is prime commuter-belt territory. Even so, the county has not lost its rural charm. As well as boasting many Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it is England's most wooded county and is riddled with rivers including England's longest, the mighty Thames.
Moreover, Surrey has a long connection with cycling. When the riding craze first hit Britain in the 1800s, the ride between the Surrey towns of Thames Ditton and Ripley was quickly dubbed the 'Mecca of all good cyclists'. Surrey roads once made up much of the annual RideLondon event, itself an extension of the 2012 Olympic road-cycling route.
This handpicked selection of rides is perfect for a series of half-day outings. Many are looped circuits, and most begin and end at railway stations, making travel hassle-free. Most are aimed at beginners and leisure cyclists, while some offer adventurous riders a more challenging experience.
So whether you fancy riding Surrey's numerous tree-cloaked country lanes or off-road networks, cycling between medieval churches, visiting Guildford Castle or Waverley Abbey on two wheels, doffing your helmet to a venerable yew tree, biking between nature reserves and vineyards, or having a drink at the UK's smallest pub, Surrey is a superb cycling destination with something for everyone. Bradt's Cycling in Surrey brims with inspiration for cyclists of all ages and energy levels.

World War I Battlefields: A Travel Guide to the Western Front : Sites, Museums, Memorials
Ordinær pris 169,00 krThoroughly updated for this new third edition, Bradt's World War I Battlefields remains the only compact practical travel guide to cover both French and Belgian battlefield sites involved in one of the deadliest conflicts in human history, which changed the face of foreign policy and European geography forever. The 2014-18 centenary of the First World War was a huge catalyst for battlefield tourism, leading to a proliferation of innovative new museums, memorials, commemorative trails, statues and more - which are comprehensively covered in this update. Co-authored by two award-winning travel writers, this lightweight and pocket-friendly guidebook is perfect for visitors.
It covers all the main sites, memorials and museums of the entire Western Front alongside practical information such as travelling there and getting around, and how to book the best guided tours. In the Belgian section of the book, chapters cover Ypres and the Ypres Salient; Poperinge, Heuvelland and Messines (Mesen); Diksmuide, Veurne and Nieuwpoort; and Mons. In the French section, as well as the Somme, battlefields in Le Nord and Lille are featured, as are those in Pas-de-Calais; Aisne; and Marne, Champagne and Verdun.
Visiting well-known Somme sights - such as Thiepval, the Somme 1916 Museum, Longueval, Le Hamel and Villers-Bretonneux - is a must for many visitors. But so, too, are Arras and the information centre dedicated to the Battle of Vimy Ridge, the Battle of Fromelles Museum, the Cambrai Tank 1917 museum, the Marne 14-18 Interpretation Centre, and the Sir John Monash Centre, which tells the story of Australian soldiers' Western Front experiences in both countries. This updated and expanded edition features new information on the valuable contribution made by Black, Indian and Caribbean soldiers.
There is also refreshed, detailed advice on how to find the resting place of family members lost in battle. For history buffs, those on battlefield tours, relatives of those who fought, school groups and students, there is no finer guidebook to visiting Great War sites in both countries than Bradt's World War I Battlefields.

1000 års gleder og sorger memoarer
Ordinær pris 449,00 kr1000 års gleder og sorger er de etterlengtede memoarene fra en av verdens viktigste levende kunstnere.
Ai Weiweis skulpturer og installasjoner har blitt sett av millioner over hele verden, og hans politiske aktivisme har lenge gjort ham til et mål for kinesiske myndigheter.
I sine memoarer gir Ai Weiwei oss et portrett av Kina fra de siste hundre år, samtidig som han belyser sin kunstneriske prosess. Det er også historien om hans far, Ai Qing, en gang nær venn av Mao Zedong, og en av Kinas mest innflytelsesrike diktere. Under kulturrevolusjonen ble Ai Qing stemplet som dissident og dømt til straffarbeid. Hele familien, inkludert sønnen, ble forvist til en avsidesliggende og øde del av landet kjent som "Lille Sibir".
Ai Weiwei beskriver barndommen i eksil og den vanskelige beslutningen om å forlate familien for å studere kunst i Amerika, hvor han ble venn med Allen Ginsberg og ble inspirert av Marcel Duchamp og Andy Warhol. Og han forteller om sin retur til Kina og veien fra ukjent kunstner til kunstverdenens superstjerne og internasjonal menneskerettighetsaktivist – og hvordan hans arbeid har blitt formet ved å leve under et totalitært regime.
1000 års gleder og sorger gir en dyp forståelse av de utallige kreftene som har formet det moderne Kina og tjener som en påminnelse om det presserende behovet for å beskytte ytringsfriheten.

A Brief History of Korea
Ordinær pris 279,00 krThough it is one of the world's oldest and most ethnically homogeneous states, Korea was not born in a vacuum. Geographically isolated, the country was heavily influenced by powerful China and was often used as a bridge to the mainland by Japan. Calling themselves as "a shrimp among whales," Koreans borrowed elements of government, culture and religion all the while fiercely fighting to maintain independence from powerful neighbors.
This fascinating book tells the story of Korean domestic dynasties, empires and states, as well as foreign conquest, occupation and division. Today, the two Koreas are starkly different--North Korea a nation closed to the world and South Korea an economic powerhouse and center of Asian democracy. Chronicling significant events right up through 2018's Singapore Summit, author Michael J.
Seth presents a relevant, interesting and important history of Korea within a larger global context. Korea's history is a turbulent one, but ultimately the story of a resistant and resourceful people in search of lasting peace.
