The largest and most populous Central American country, Guatemala is a land of contrasts and contradictions. It offers great physical beauty alongside ancient Mayan ruins and a conglomeration of diverse peoples and cultures. It is also unique in Central America in that more than half its population is of Mayan Indian origin. Today the country reflects a combination of ancient Mayan heritage, Spanish colonialism, and modern Western influences, mainly from the United States.

From Myanmar's highlands to the British Pennines, from slow travel between coffee plantations in Borneo to a cross-continent odyssey on African railways, from the pioneers of the American West to European trains in war, this is a new prism through which to explore human lives, and global landscapes, politics and history. The Untold Railway Stories is a testament to both the joy and impact of train travel - to the ambition and ingenuity, and also to destruction and sacrifice within its history - and is published to coincide with the 200th anniversary of the first passenger railway line.

Ein Pyrenäenbuch ist Kurt Tucholskys literarischer Reisebericht über seine Eindrücke in den Pyrenäen.

In deze reeks duiken Riet en Farah in de échte verhalen achter een weekendje weg met vrienden. Van knusse huisjes (meestal in de Ardennen… maar soms ook totaal ergens anders) tot hilarische misverstanden en zelfs momenten waarop het groepsleven nét iets minder gezellig is dan op Instagram. Hoe plan je het, hoe overleef je het, en waarom blijven we het toch altijd opnieuw doen? Een warme, eerlijke en herkenbare babbel vol vriendschap, chaos en chalet-wijsheid. Ideaal om te luisteren mét je vriendengroep — of net om er even aan te ontsnappen.

गहन साक्षात्कार प्रत्येक मानवी जीवनात दैवी स्वरूप स्वत:ला व्यक्त करीत असतं; पण मानवाने त्याच्याकडे काणाडोळा केला, तर असा साक्षात्कार म्हणजे खडकाळ जमिनीत पेरलेलं बीज ठरेल, जे कधीच रुजत नाही. या दैवी जाणिवेतून कोणालाही वगळले जात नाही. किंबहुना मानवच स्वत:ला त्यातून वगळून टाकतो. नेहमीच हिरव्या फांदीवर झुलणाऱ्या प्रत्येक पक्ष्याने, आपल्या मातेचा प्रेमळ हात धरून ठेवणाऱ्या मुलाने जीवनाचे गूढ कोडे केव्हाच सोडवलेले असते आणि त्याचं उत्तरही त्याच्या मुद्रेवर झळकत असतं.

The Seventymile Kid tells the remarkable account of Harry Karstens, who was the actual—if unheralded—leader of the Hudson Stuck Expedition that was the first to summit Mount McKinley in Alaska. All but forgotten by history, a young Karstens arrived in the Yukon during the 1897 Gold Rush, gained fame as a dog musher hauling U.S. Mail in Alaska, and eventually became the first superintendent of Mount McKinley National Park (now known as Denali National Park and Preserve).

In 2015, Beth and Eric Jusino walked out of a cathedral in the historic village of Le Puy, France, down a cobblestone street, and turned west. Seventy-nine days, a thousand miles, two countries, two mountain ranges, and three pairs of shoes later, they reached the Atlantic Ocean. More than two million pilgrims have walked the Way of Saint James, a long-distance hiking trail. Each pilgrim has their own reason for undertaking the journey. For the Jusinos, it was about taking a break from the relentless pace of modern life and getting away from all their electronic devices.
