This is a travel book about the author's trip hiking across the mountains, fjords, and valleys of Norway. He walks (mainly) from Oslo to Bergen with his girlfriend. Interspersed with vivid descriptions of the scenery are details of Norway's history, culture, and politics. This was a pretty book to read, but would be prettier as a documentary. I wanted so badly to actually see the scenery he was depicting.
