The Norwegian Tourists' Association

Abstract

THIS year-book, which is the eighth of a series issued by the Association, contains some information likely to be useful to those who intend to visit the fjelds of Norway, and two papers at least of scientific interest by Mr. A. Helland. The indefatigable mountain-climbers, Mr. E. Mohn and Mr. Wm. Cecil Slingsby, have each contributed a paper on their adventures during short excursions made on the Jotunheim-fjeld (“Adventures on the Fjelds,” and “An English Lady in Jotunheimer”). These accounts, written in a lively, pleasant style (the last in English), will be read with interest by tourists who are in search of new fields of exploration. In the paper of O. A. C. “Bagatelles from a Journey in the Nordland,” the reader will find some fine description of nature and life in the northern parts of the Scandinavian peninsula.
