"'A donkey?' blurted my family as one. For a moment it didn't seem they'd ever be able to list all the reasons that made this so entertainingly ludicrous. . . .Yes, I'd never ridden a donkey on a beach or petted one at a city farm, never even pinned a cardboard tail to one's throat after the cake and ice cream....A donkey would be my hairy-coated hair shirt, making my pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela a truer test of the will, a trial." With these words, having no knowledge of Spanish and even less about the care and feeding of donkeys, Tim Moore, Britain's indefatigable traveling Everyman, sets out on a pilgrimage to the cathedral at Santiago de Compostela with a donkey named Shinto as his companion. Armed only with the Codex Calixtinus, a twelfth-century handbook to the route, and expert advice on donkey management from Robert Louis Stevenson, Moore and his four-legged companion travel the ancient five-hundred-mile route from St. Jean Pied-de-Port, on the French side of the Pyrenees, to the cathedral at Santiago de Compostela, which houses the remains of Spain's patron saint, St. James. Over sun-scorched highways, precipitous bridges, dirt paths shaded by leafy trees, and vineyards occasionally lashed by downpours, Moore and Shinto pass through some of the oldest towns and cities in northern Spain in colorful company, both past and present. Pilgrims real and imagined have traveled this route throughout the ages, a diverse cast of wayfarers spanning Charlemagne, St. Francis of Assisi, Chaucer's Wife of Bath, and New Age diva, Shirley MacLaine. Moore's present-day companions are no less florid or poignant. Clearly more interested in Shinto than in Moore, their fellow walkers are an assortment of devout Christian pilgrims, New Age spirituality seekers, travelers grieving over a lost love affair, Baby Boomers contemplating the advent of middle age, and John Q. Public just out for a cheap, boozy sun-drenched outdoor holiday. As Moore pushes, pulls, wheedles, cajoles, and threatens Shinto across Spain toward the crypt of St. James in a quest to find the spiritual pilgrim within, the duo overnights in the bedrooms, dormitories, and---for Shinto---adjacent grassy fields of northern Spain's hostels, inns, convents, seminaries, and farmhouses. Shinto, a donkey with a finely honed talent for relieving himself at the most inopportune moments, has better luck in the search for his next meal than Moore does in finding his inner St. Francis. Undaunted, however, Man and Beast finally arrive at the cathedral and a successful end to their journey. For readers who delighted in his earlier books, Travels with My Donkey is the next hilarious chapter in the travels of Tim Moore, a book that keeps the bones of St. James rattling till this day.

Am Ende des 19. und am Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts war Albanien ein Land, das es zu entdecken galt. Das ewig unruhige Balkanland gehörte noch zu dem in Zerfall begriffenen, großen Osmanischen Reich und war für europäische Reisende nicht einfach zugänglich. Dennoch strömten viele europäische Forscher und Reisende nach Albanien, um den letzten weißen Fleck auf der Karte Europas zu erkunden. Unter ihnen spielte der österreichische Ingenieur Karl Steinmetz eine besondere Rolle. Im Gegensatz zu den meisten Entdeckern und Reisenden war er auf seine Expeditionen gut vorbereitet. Er lernte albanisch, scheinbar gut, und war dadurch in die Lage versetzt, selbstständig kreuz und quer durch die bis dahin schwer zugänglichen Berge zu reisen und mit den angeblich so schießwütigen Einheimischen umzugehen. Diese Ausgabe umfasst die drei Reiseschilderungen des abenteuerlustigen Karl Steinmetz aus den Jahre 1903, 1904 und 1905.

Chogolisa, the world's 36th highest peak, lies near the Baltoro Glacier in the Concordia region of the Karakoram. Its four ridges, of which three have been been climbed, culminate in the two summits. The peak is highly exposed to winds with deep snow. Chogolisa has several peaks, the highest rises above the south face (Chogolisa I) to 7,665m (25,148ft). The second highest, 7,654m, on the northeast side (Chogolisa II), was named Bride Peak by Martin Conway in 1892.
