Overalt, hvor hen man ser, er de der - heksene. Hekse i alle mulige størrelser, lige fra de bittesmå til de kæmpe store. Der er de farvestrålende, de morsomme og de grusomme, men de har alle et strejf af humor. De findes overalt, i vinduerne, under tagudhæng, som dekoration på væggene, på souvenirforretningernes stativer, skåret ud af et gammelt træ eller der hvor man har fundet ledig plads. Man kan derfor med rette kalde Harzen for heksenes land. Harzen er heldigvis meget mere end blot hekse, og er ikke længere stedet, hvor ens bedsteforældre tager på ferie. Efter Berlinmurens fald, i 1989, er der lukket op for den del af Harzen, der før var lukket land for vesterlændingene. Harzen har rigtig meget at byde på, både for ung og gammel. Hvad med en tur med de gamle damptog til toppen af Harzen - Brocken - eller hvad med en is foran det smukke røde rådhus i Wernigerode eller måske udforske de historiske gader i Quedlinburg. Mulighederne er mange og venter kun på besøg. Harzen - Heksenes Land er skrevet af en tidligere rejseleder, der har kørt i Harzen, og kender til de mange små veje, hvor man i mange kilometer kun ser grantræer. Bogen rummer historier, sagn, personlige erfaringer og tips til dem der ønsker at opleve Harzen for første gang eller på en ny måde. Det hele fortalt med et glimt i øjet og et smil på læben.

This new, thoroughly updated edition of Bradt's Suriname remains the first dedicated English-language guidebook to this emergent and largely unspoiled ecotourist destination and offers by far the greatest depth of coverage available. It is also the first guidebook in any language with a comprehensive section on the Upper Suriname River, an exciting and remote area serviced by around 20 small lodges. Detailed coverage of all accessible parks and reserves is included, including the three main marine turtle viewing sites and Central Suriname Reserve (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), with information geared to people joining organised tours as well as those who prefer the independent travel approach. Also included are detailed maps and town plans, many unavailable in any other resource having been drawn up from scratch by the author using GPS specifically for this book. Peaceful and politically stable, Suriname is one of the world's five most thinly populated countries. Its Caribbean coastline is famed for its peerless turtle-watching opportunities, while the interior is swathed by a vast tract of pristine Amazonian rainforest rich in wildlife and accessible only by air or along the tropical waterways that incise the interior. The guide includes a detailed introduction to the diverse wildlife and intriguing history of the only former Dutch colony in South America, along with detailed regional coverage of the tropical coastline, the historic inner city of the culturally diverse capital Paramaribo (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), and the thrilling opportunities for exploration afforded by the jungle-swathed interior.

Wolfgangsee er beliggende i det naturskønne Salzkammergut i hjertet af Østrig. Langs den smaragdgrønne sø finder man byerne Sankt Wolfgang, Strobl og Sankt Gilgen. Fra Wolfgangsee er der ikke langt til kejserbyen Bad Ischl, som i mange år var stedet, hvor kejser Franz Joseph og kejserinde Sisi opholdte sig i sommermånederne. Selvom Bad Ischl ikke har direkte adgang til Wolfgangsee, så er denne by også kommet med i denne bog. Wolfgangsee indbyder til aktiv ferie, men hvis man er mere til ro og fred, er dette også muligt. Wolfgangsee gemmer på mange historier, og det gør denne bog også. Hvad har eksempelvis operetten 'Im Weißen Rößl am Wolfgangsee' til fælles med den danske film 'Sommer i Tyrol'? Ja, det må man læse denne bog for at finde ud af. 'Wolfgangsee - et stykke af paradis' er Rejseskribentens fjerde rejsebog. Rejseskribenten er tidligere rejseleder, der har en passion for fotografi og gode, gerne ukendte, historier, der fortælles med et glimt i øjet. Rejseskribenten elsker at rejse, primært, i Tyskland og Østrig.
