This helpful guide was written before the Norwegian shipping lines were combined to provide mail and freight service to coastal villages, as well as a fine voyage up the western coast from Bergen to Kirkenes on the Russian border. Although the ships have become larger and more comfortable, this is a delightful guide of what was seen in the 1950s, some 70 years ago, and how the scenery remains unchanged. Pages 64. Very good hardback with printed cover with a seagull, and very good dustjacket, having some edgewear, protected in a clear, mylar sleeve. I recommend taking it along on your next Hurtigruten voyage. Folding map at the rear, and "With the compliments of the Captain, R. Huss".
