    Reisverhaal Minarets in the Mountains | Tharik Hussain
    Londenaar en moslim Tharik Hussain reist met zijn gezin naar de west-Balkan en schrijft over de eeuwenoude moslimgemeenschappen die hij daar aantreft. Hij duikt in de lokale cultuur en geschiedenis en beschrijft historische wortels van Europese Islamofobie.   A magical, eye-opening account of a journey into a Europe that rarely makes the news and is in danger of being erased altogether. Another Europe. A Europe few people believe exists and many wish didn't.   Muslim Europe. Londoner Tharik Hussain sets off with his wife and young daughters around the Western Balkans, home to the largest indigenous Muslim population in Europe, and explores the regions of Eastern Europe where Islam has shaped places and people for more than half a millennium.   Encountering blonde-haired, blue-eyed Muslims, visiting mystical Islamic lodges clinging to the side of mountains, and praying in mosques older than the Sistine Chapel, he paints a picture of a hidden Muslim Europe, a vibrant place with a breath…

    In dit nieuwste boek van fotografe Karin Broekhuijsen wordt het machtige gebied De Hondsrug in al zijn rijkdom getoond. 0De Hondsrug heeft een lange geschiedenis die haar weerga niet kent. Het begon allemaal een paar miljoen jaar geleden in de ijstijden toen ijs, wind en water de Hondsrug zijn vorm gaven. En later toen het metersdikke veenmoeras tegen zijn hellingen omhoog kroop. 0In dit fotoboek zie je de mooiste plekken op De Hondsrug, ondersteund met verhalen van Bertus Boivin. Deze verhalen zijn vertaald in het Engels en Duits. Deutsch   Der Hondsrug zieht einen 70 km langen, geraden Strich durch den Nordosten der Niederlande. Eis, Wasser und Wind formten 150.000 Jahre eine Landschaft, die in Europa einzigartig ist.   Dieser Bildband lädt Sie ein, den Hondsrug näher kennenzulernen und die Schönheit dieses besonderen Naturraums zu entdecken. Es erzählt eine abwechslungsreiche Geschichte, die in den Eiszeiten begann. Die Auswirkungen sind bis heute in der Landschaft sichtbar und bes…
