Book desription: Langenscheidt Publishers. Very Good- with no dust jacket. Reprint. Paperback. There is a tear or cut for about 4 inches along the front edge of the spine. It has been mended with permacel tape. Otherwise, in excellent condition. ; 9.00 x 1.00 x 6.25; 329 pages; Insight Guide: Sweden is much more than a guidebook. A team of expert writers provides real insight into the country that gave the world Alfred Nobel and Ingmar Bergman, Volvo cars and Hasselblad cameras. The book, combining the incisive text and vivid photojournalism pioneered by Apa Publications, paints a fascinating portrait of a society which has embraced daring social experiments, yet which adheres to a rigid protocol at dinner parties. The book begins with a lively history, followed by a series of essays designed to give insight into the lives of Swedes, their traditions and love of the outdoors. There is a run-down on the sights worth seeing and the places worth seeking out, all with detailed maps. Finally, a listings section covers travel, hotels, restaurants, museums and opening times. From the cultural hubs of Stockholm and Gothenburg to the icy wilderness of Lappland, it's all here. Insight Guide: Sweden both entertains while it informs and inspires while it explains. Serving as a background reader, a practical companion for use on the spot, and an ideal souvenir of your visit, it's the perfect all-in-one guidebook. .
