Description
There are many paths - mostly unknown and only rarely entered - that still want to be explored. The stories collected here tell us about adventurous travels to different countries, where one can find such paths. Be it fjords and mountains in the South of Norway or polar regions in the far North of Scandinavia; rock faces in Yosemite in the Sierra Nevada or reservations for American Natives in Saskatchewan and South Dakota; traversing South America from the Andes in Peru and Bolivia to t Amazon rainforest; visiting inhabitants and local tribes of central New-Guinea or following the traces of Indian sultans in Madhya Pradesh. The individual authors describe their travels in a vivid way, supported by their own photographs of remarkable objects and scenes. The text is permeated with inserts about land and people, noticeable traditions, and also with actual problems in terms of environment, social structure and political debates. Some observations deserve special attention: hungry polar foxes out of nowhere in Lapland, air travel in Bolivia with 28 halves of slaughtered cows, reception by the mummified grandfather in Wamena (New-Guinea), and more... But all this can be read in the book!
