Wild, exotic and visually-stunning Greenland, the best place in

the world to see the Aurora Borealis, finally has its own Englishlanguage

guide, including unprecedented and entertaining detail

on all aspects of travel to this stunning island, as well as ecological,

anthropological and historical curiosities. Full practical information

covers accommodation, eating and drinking, and getting around

this little-known country.

This is the only guide to Greenland,

covering everything from Disko Bay to the capital of Nuuk to

tiny waterside settlements. Also included are colourful extras

like proverbs and quotes from Greenlandic oral literature and folklore; detailed sections

on climate change by environmental experts and on ice trekking and mountaineering,

including first-hand descriptions of new trekking routes; comprehensive bird watching and

wildlife sections provided in far greater detail than in other guides to the Arctic regions;

and thorough overviews of the Greenlandic and Danish languages written by the author, a

linguist and social anthropologist who has studied numerous Northern languages.

Bradt?s Greenland is the only English-language guide available to a country which is

85% covered in ice, where the main transport options are boat, plane, helicopter,

snowmobile or dogsled, and where the longest day of the year is a national holiday.

most often and best visited
