Andalucian Delight
The wonderful cakes from Andalucia are pure luxury. Many of them were developed in rich towns where the citizens indulged not only in cakes but in all kinds of luxuries.Today these luxurious cakes are available to everyone. From being the creations of a few master bakers for a small elite the recipes are followed in pastelerias all over Andalucia. By all means enjoy them! Remember to exercise! These cakes are very rich, that is why they taste so good!But let us make one thing clear. We find it a detestable practice to use margarine instead of manteca de cerdo (lard) and butter and to add extra sugar to try to cover this up. We understand margarine is cheaper, but the cakes do not taste the same. It is a kind of fraud on the consumer. Be sure to ask for the real thing!Besides cakes, Andalucia has so much to offer the visitor and its own residents. You will enjoy a visit!

Azores
Now in its eighth edition, Bradt's Azores remains the only comprehensive guidebook to this nine-island archipelago - a mountainous, nature-lover's wilderness perched in the mid-Atlantic at the western extremity of Europe. One of the world's best whalewatching destinations, a geological curiosity and - more recently - a mid-Atlantic adventure playground, the Azores have become increasingly accessible thanks to increasing direct trans-Atlantic flights, with departure airports now including JFK and Newark. The nine islands making up the Azorean archipelago share volcanic origins, albeit from different eras, so each rugged landscape boasts a unique feel. The approach to tourism also differs from island to island: while S瓊o Miguel welcomes a rising number of cruise ships and international flights, and Faial is a busy hub for trans-ocean yachts, tiny Corvo and gentle Santa Maria remain almost untouched. The Gulf Stream guarantees a mild climate and plenty of greenery: a pleasant environment for this easily accessible, safe, welcoming and authentic destination.With each island treated to its own chapter, Bradt's Azores provides all the details a visitor needs for a rewarding, enjoyable visit to an archipelago where cows outnumber people. Author and expert botanist David Sayers shares his deep knowledge about flora, fauna and geology that are integral to getting to know the islands. This new edition - thoroughly updated by prolific guidebook author Tim Burford - strengthens coverage of the land- and sea-based activities that have become a significant part of the Azores' attractions this century while providing the most recent practical information such as where to stay and eat in every price band.Five centuries of human history are well documented in a host of museums that explain the fluctuating fortunes and strategic importance of the archipelago across the centuries. Attractive architecture, carefully preserved festivals, four islands with UNESCO Biosphere Reserve status and thermal pools complete what is a very agreeable picture. Little wonder then that the Azores attracts geologists, birdwatchers, whalewatchers, horseriders, walkers, mountaineers bent on climbing Portugal's highest peak (on Pico island), divers, surfers, sailors, mountain-bikers and canyoners - indeed anyone who loves the great outdoors in all its forms.
The Holocaust
New from Bradt is The Holocaust: Europe's Sites, Museums and Memorials, a unique travel guidebook to European locations that tell the story of the greatest crime ever perpetrated - the Nazi genocide of six million Jews and other persecuted groups. In recent years countries once reluctant to delve into the dark corners of their past have begun to document the history of the Holocaust and its aftermath. Europe has many new ground-breaking museums and memorials that tell us as much about the present as they do the past. Chapters are dedicated to each country or region that were occupied by Nazi Germany as well as nations like the UK and neutral Sweden, which played a vital role both before and after the Holocaust. Organized around city hubs in each country, this Bradt guide helps visitors explore numerous destinations, whether infamous, well known or comparatively unexpected. This is much, much more than a guide to notorious sites such as Auschwitz-Birkenau, Buchenwald or Dachau. You can take a walking tour in Vienna, to view the new wall of names. Or visit the Memorial des Martyrs de la Deportation in Paris, Anne Frank House in Amsterdam or the Jewish Museum in Ferrara. And you can learn how babies were smuggled out in sacks in Lithuania or read about Bavaria's Kloster Indersdorf, a remarkable children's home that cared for survivors. Written by a journalist and travel writer specialising in Jewish history, Bradt's The Holocaust: Europe's Sites, Museums and Memorials provides the traveller with not only a list of must-see sites in each country but also a comprehensive list of organizations that run tours, commemorations and volunteer schemes. Suggestions of where to eat and stay (including Kosher restaurants and hotels) ease the traveller's way, as do descriptions of local Jewish organisations and tips on how to pace potentially difficult journeys into Europe's dark past. Bradt's The Holocaust: Europe's Sites, Museums and Memorials is the first comprehensive travel guide to the genocide and the first to help the traveller understand the Holocaust by seeing the places where it unfurled.

The Car Lover's Guide to London
"Randall's book is no ordinary text about automobiles; it combines a love of cars with references to buildings and spaces that played a part in London's motoring history... this enjoyable read may have a niche audience, but it makes a fun addition to displays and collections." -- Library JournalThere are plenty of ways to delve into the history of a city like London, but it's not often done through the world of the motor car. But that's exactly what Chris Randall has done, exploring the links between the capital and its automotive past.That makes this book a somewhat unique approach to the subject, and readers will discover a fascinating history that involves some of the most famous names in motoring. Enthusiasts will certainly recognise the likes of Aston Martin, Bentley and Rolls-Royce but amongst those are names that might be less familiar today.The buildings that you'll find within this book all exist today, which means you can see the motoring history for yourself. Some are now famous restaurants, others are offices and a few are private homes, but what they all have in common is the automobile and for those that love all things four-wheeled there are some real treasures to be found.Illustrated with photographs that show you what those places look like today, along with how some of them appeared in their motoring heyday, this is a very different look at the history of the famous city. It's played a part in the very earliest days of the automobile's story, and that's something this books sets out to celebrate.
Italy, a Glorious Shambles
Italy is a unique country. This book combines, in an empathetic and amusing manner, the author's 40 years of personal experience and observation of life in Italy, with an incisive social commentary.It examines the impact of recent historical events and the country's fascist legacy, which remains of great pertinence today, for both Italy and beyond.Italians project the impression of being comfortable in their own skin. Life is to be enjoyed, simply and fully - as has been said: 'They just seem to do life better than we do'. This remark conveys perfectly Italians' wonderful ability to cope with anything that is thrown at them: tomorrow is another day. The book also explores the time-wasting and, often, positively absurd ways in which Italians must deal with the administrative aspects of everyday life. As a result, they have become past masters in creativity for social and economic survival.Finally, many personal observations document the innate generosity - in terms of attitudes, values, judgement and kindness - of Italians. Such a capacity accounts, to a large extent, for their spontaneous ability to simplify life and to facilitate interactions at all levels.
