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.

Throughout the ages, the lights of the aurora borealis were believed to be messengers of gods, signs of apocalypse, or souls of the dead; even the most sophisticated scientists misapprehended their cause. Now Lucy Jago tells the story of the science-and the romance-behind the Northern Lights as she traces the grand adventure of the life of the visionary Norwegian scientist Kristian Birkeland. Exhaustively researched and thrillingly told, this previously unknown story is an enthralling and enlightening saga.
