Whether you're a first-time visitor or a life-long enthusiast, here's all you need to know (and more) about Schnizelbängg and Schyssdräggzyygli and all the other fascinating aspects of Basel's famous carnival. The author, Peter Habicht, is a historian in Basel who enjoys giving lively, carefully researched tours of the town closest to his heart. Basel's Fasnacht may be impossible to describe, but Peter Habicht's tour in these pages is the next best thing to spending these three special days in Basel. Fredy Prack is a graphic designer and one of the most valued artists for Fasnacht lanterns, well-known for conveying the themes, humor and heart of the Basler (and Schnitzelbänggler) into visual form.

Here are Eugene Epstein's most popular and endearing tales about the Swiss and their ways from his first two books ('Once Upon and Alp' and 'Lend Me Your Alphorn') that best depict his American/Swiss wry humor, keen observations and infectious sense of fun. 
He thought Zurich was not far from the Swiss capital of Stockholm when he first came to Switzerland, but with perseverance he even learned to pronounce Chuchichaeschtli, play Jass and feel the Foehn almost like a real Swiss. It may no longer be so difficult to lose your bicycle in Switzerland, but many of his observations of skiing, joining Swiss clubs, discovering fondue, learning Swiss-German, and other escapades still ring true and will keep readers giggling for another generation.
