Norway
Norway is known for its mountains, glaciers, and deeply cut coastal fjords. Bergen, with its typical colorful wooden houses, is a popular starting point for boat trips into the dramatic Sognefjord. This book shows in almost 500 pictures the Scandinavian country in its scenic variety but also in its seasonal diversity. Snow, ice, and polar lights in winter, and the special light of the midnight sun in summer.
Sweden
This volume illustrates the fascinating diversity and beauty of Sweden. Sweden, a symbol of Scandinavian idyll, inspires with its falun-red wooden houses surrounded by dense forests, with its quiet bays, long sandy beaches, lighthouses and windmills, colorful boathouses, the glittering sea between archipelagos, the infinite number of lakes, the lonely and wide snow landscapes, dog sleds, reindeer, and moose.
Alps
A vast mountain range stretching from west to east over seven countries forms a barrier of rock, snow, and ice in the middle of Europe. This illustrated book shows the scenic diversity and beauty of the Alps which has over 100 thirteen-thousand-foot peaks, a rich flora and fauna, places very much worth seeing, and lovingly preserved customs.

Ice Worlds
Unique ice formations and vast snow landscapes characterize the regions around the poles. But even far away from these areas, there are huge glaciers; for example, in Argentina, and even in hot African countries you can find fascinating mountain massifs covered by snow and glaciers. With an impressive 460 photos, this volume shows the ice worlds and their inhabitants around the globe. Under severe threat from climate change, they are all the more worthy of protection.
