hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. h/b 183 pages, condition is very good, this is an ex library book with the usual stamps. The DJ is slightly faded. Scandinavia has two faces: to the west and the Atlantic, to the east and the Baltic with the largest concentration of islands in the world, 'differing', as Defoe wrote, 'from all the rest of the world for rocks and little rocky islands'. None of these lovely archipelagos has a clearer identity than the Finnish Aland Islands, lying some forty kilometres off Sweden, just north of Stockholm and opposite Helsinki. Most travellers approach them from the west, the route followed by the earliest settlers which is frequently ice-covered in winter. In summer there is a wide choice of boats, many of the ferries having good restaurants and duty-free shops. The islands lie low in the sea, announcing themselves discreetly, their broken rim of granite coppery red on a bright day and capped by the dark green line of the forest. The principal port of Mariehamn is protected by a girdle of rocky islets and reefs, the outer ones uninhabited except for sea birds and the occasional home of a pilot. Aland, aptly named the Garden of the Northern Hesperides, is unusually rich in flora, more so than the Finnish mainland itself and the great coastline favours invasion by animals. The beaches are exquisite and the woods and boglands throb with natural life. Professor Mead and his Finnish co-author, Professor Jaatinen, who are both distinguished geographers, have spent many months on the islands over the years and they describe them in all their aspects - early and modern history, geology and geography, the wildlife and, of course, the life there today with details of all the delightful facilities offered to the tourist. Above all, perhaps, they catch the beauty and poetry of the archipelago that all true lovers of islands will appreciate.…
