"From runes to rigs presents the history of the Stavanger region since
the arrival of the first humans to the present day. This story is divided
into seven sections which integrate economic, religious, artistic and
cultural developments. Each section is accompanied by a map showing how to find the various sights mentioned in the text.
In addition to historic sites, buildings and monuments in the city and its
surrounding region, the book presents a selection of treasures from the
fine collections held in local museums."
This is a book about my home region! Eli N Aga and Hans Eyvind Nęss have created a well thought out and well written book. It is also nicely presented with both pictures and maps. A book that I think not only local people, but also friends, family as well as businesses with connections to the region will appreciate. The English version makes this book into a brilliant gift for all non-Scandinavian speaking people who want to know more about the treasures of the Stavanger region. |
