Now in its eighth edition, Bradt's Azores remains the only comprehensive guidebook to this nine-island archipelago - a mountainous, nature-lover's wilderness perched in the mid-Atlantic at the western extremity of Europe. One of the world's best whalewatching destinations, a geological curiosity and - more recently - a mid-Atlantic adventure playground, the Azores have become ever more accessible thanks to low-cost European flights. The nine islands making up the Azorean archipelago share volcanic origins, albeit from different eras, so each rugged landscape boasts a unique feel.

The approach to tourism also differs from island to island: while Sao Miguel welcomes a rising number of cruise ships and international flights, and Faial is a busy hub for trans-ocean yachts, tiny Corvo and gentle Santa Maria remain almost untouched. The Gulf Stream guarantees a mild climate and plenty of greenery: a pleasant environment for this easily accessible, safe, welcoming and authentic mid-haul destination. With each island treated to its own chapter, Bradt's Azores provides all the details a visitor needs for a rewarding, enjoyable visit to an archipelago where cows outnumber people.

Author and expert botanist David Sayers shares his deep knowledge about flora, fauna and geology that are integral to getting to know the islands. This new edition - thoroughly updated by prolific guidebook author Tim Burford - strengthens coverage of the land- and sea-based activities that have become a significant part of the Azores' attractions this century while providing the most recent practical information such as where to stay and eat in every price band. Five centuries of human history are well documented in a host of museums spread across the islands, which explain the fluctuating fortunes and strategic importance of the archipelago through the centuries.

Attractive architecture, carefully preserved festivals, four islands with UNESCO Biosphere Reserve status and thermal pools complete what is a very agreeable picture. Little wonder then that the Azores attracts geologists, birdwatchers, whalewatchers, horseriders, walkers, mountaineers bent on climbing Portugal's highest peak (on Pico island), divers, surfers, sailors, mountain-bikers and canyoners - indeed anyone who loves nature or the great outdoors in all its forms.

Bradt Travel Guides er et engelsk forlag med over 200 titler som i hovedsak er skrevet for turister som bruker offentlige transportmidler og egne ben. Bradt har vunnet mange priser for reisehåndbøkene sine som er kjent for å være sterke på mindre kjente reisemål som ikke er overfylt av turister. Forfatterne sørger gjerne for å gi bøkene en personlig ”touch”, og er ikke redde for å være subjektive. Dette gjør dem både til tider morsomme, i tillegg til å være informative og enkle å lese.

Bradt Travel Guides var svært tidlig ute med fokus på viktige emner som økoturisme og den reisendes ansvar som gjest I et fremmed land. Reisehåndbøkene gir råd til hvordan man best kan nyte en eventyrlig reise borte fra turisthordene samtidig som man gjør det mulig for lokale samfunn og natur å dra nytte av besøket. Bradt er guidebøkene til mindre kjente reisemål du ikke vil finne hos andre utgivere. De er gode følgesvenner for eventyrlystne med ryggsekk på et gjennomsnittlig budsjett.
