It’s tricky to write a good book about something as everyday as walking or hiking, but this author pulls it off—despite a few uneven parts. It’s a charming and thoughtful look at travel just for the soul.
What a comprehensive book on Norse,Finn and Sami mythology. As someone living in these areas and knowing something about it, it becomes very interesting reading. Simply love it
This is such a special book to me and I've been searching for it for a long time. The condition was good. We had some problems with shipping, completely my fault and the service team were so lovely in getting it sorted and helping me get my favourite book again. Much love to bookbot. Living in a foreign country can make it hard to find books in your language that are cost friendly and not Amazon. So thank you for this site and service. ❤️❤️❤️
A powerful piece of reportage about life in communist Albania. The country's history isn’t widely known here, and this book offers a deeper understanding of its past. It’s not an easy read, but it effectively shows the harsh consequences of blind faith in communism.
This book hits the reader like a Soviet-Russian punch to the face. It takes a while to recover from seeing the world through their eyes. But it also makes it easier to understand today’s war. A must-read.
