TITLE:
The Explorers' Handbook - Book Launch
DATE:
MARCH 2002
ARTICLE CONTENT:
IK Foundation & Company is proud to present the latest Explorer’s
Handbook – an international series of books.
 THE
EXPLORER'S HANDBOOKS are a series of international pocket guides.
Each guide, which is published in two languages, comprises short,
succinct and generously illustrated chapters.
The guides are used to give the reader easily understood information
about a visit or topic; maps make the handbooks ideal for pre-visit
information or as a guide or follow-up. They average 52 to 74 pages
including two foldouts, one of which is a postcard. Sold on site or
in bookshops for a budget price, the handbooks are designed to be
an easily affordable and worthwhile reference.
The Explorer’s Handbook ’Fertile Top-soil’ is a unique
guide that describes a farming region of south Sweden that in recent
years has experienced a dramatic period of urbanisation. The book
explains that even in this type of landscape there is much to see
and learn – both of cultural and natural historical interest.
Language: Swedish with comprehensive summaries and illustration
texts in English
Format: 12 cm x 21 cm
Printed pages: 72 + one foldout and one postcard
Binding: Thread-stitched with soft paper cover
Additional information: Richly illustrated with photographs
and maps. Cross references, additional reading and practical information
