Palestine is a tiny country, yet within its borders lie a significant part of the Holy Land and, from the Samarian Mountains to the Dead Sea, a surprising variety of landscape. 
Divided from Israel by the Green Line, Palestine has much to offer the visitor, not least the warmth of the Palestinian people that belies their turbulent history. In addition to the attractions of Jericho and Bethlehem, and the modern-day cities of Nablus and Ramallah, the Bradt guide extends out into the mountains and hills giving details of hidden monasteries, deep gorges and barren deserts. And then, of course, there's in-depth coverage of Jerusalem. 
This guide includes background history, from the birth of civilization to the new millennium; the West Bank and Gaza Strip; Jerusalem in detail; accommodation, food and transport; safety and security; activities from floating in the Dead Sea to walking, cycling and Turkish baths and 22 maps and town plans.

As a trekking destination the Italian Dolomites has few peers. Juxtaposing dramatic mountain scenery with picture-perfect Tyrolean villages, and flower-filled alpine meadows with poignant WWI battlefields, this small yet exquisite range rarely fails to enchant and beguile those who visit. This guide has been re-researched and updated to include the two most popular long-distance hikes in the Dolomites--the Alta Via 1 (AV1) and the Alta Via 2 (AV2) as well as shorter walks. The Alta Via 1 is the classic high level traverse of the Venetian Dolomites, from north to south. It's a nine to fouteen day walk which begins at Lago di Braies in Val Pusteria running along a trail which connects a network of high mountain refuges south to Belluno. The Alta Via 2 is the longest alta via of them all, taking ten to sixteen days. &gt;55 detailed trekking maps--showing route times, places to stay, and points of interest: &gt;Alta Via 1 (nine-fourteen days) &gt;Alta Via 2 (ten-sixteen days) &gt;15 short treks (one-five days) &gt;Practical information--planning the trip and getting to Italy from other countries in Europe, North America, and Australasia &gt;Historical and cultural background--with comprehensive sections on the legends and culture of the indigenous Ladin people &gt;Cortina, Bolzano, and ten other towns and villages--detailed street plans, where to stay, where to eat, what to see, and getting to the start of a trek &gt;Green hiking, health, and safety--how to stay healthy on a hike and minimize impact on a fragile region &gt;Italian language section &gt;Flora and fauna--four-page full-color guide to the flowers of the Dolomites, plus an illustrated bird identification section

"Kilimanjaro is a snow covered mountain 19,710 feet high, and is said to be the highest mountain in Africa. Its western summit is called the Masai ‘Ngà’je Ngài’, the House of God. Close to the western summit there is the dried and frozen carcass of a leopard. No one has explained what the leopard was seeking at that altitude."--Ernest Hemingway in the preamble to The Snows of Kilimanjaro The best and easiest way to see and experience this exciting place is to do it with this guide!

And adventure. If that route is coast to coast then my senses are magnified. At just under 192 miles, this is no day trip but it's all the better for it. With highly detailed pathways, and truthful accounts of overnight stays, this has to be the most definitive guide to this route so far." -- Escape Magazine (UK)‘...the Trailblazer series stands head, shoulders, waist and ankles above the rest.
