As the author of living classics which people still read, he is an integral part of Swedish life today. In the world at large he is the father of the modern classification of flora and fauna. He was also an avid explorer and an important teacher, who sent his students on voyages of scientific discovery all over the world.

Those who have an eye for landscape are able to see the drama of the Ice Age relected in the hills and valleys of the landscape of Mols. The two bays, Kalø Bay and Ebeltoft Bay, have each been formed by a glacier and the material forced up between these two glaciers has formed the Mountains of Mols. The melt water formed gorges and river valleys, blocks of ice that were left have formed lakes and kettle holes. This book endeavours to find out some of the mystery surrounding the Mols country. Both how it was formed, what it looks like today, and what it has to offer if one enters it. Many exciting experiences await the visitor who has an open mind, especially if he or she combines this book with a walk or cycle trip, now and then possibly also a trip by car, into the landscape, using this book as a key.
