Cape Verde Islands by Aisling Irwin
Talking about Local culture including music, customs and history, this book includes hiking routes for all levels of experience. It also includes maps and town plans of key areas of the island.
Having updated Bradt's well-established Cape Verde guidebook for its 6th edition, Murray Stewart is ideally placed to carry out the update for the 7th edition. An understanding of Portuguese and a network of island-based contacts allows him to keep up-to-date with what's going on in the archipelago from afar, essential in a destination that changes quickly. He keeps abreast of developments through the A Semana website, Cape Verde's daily newspaper. Colum and Aisling's first guide to Cape Verde was published in 1988. Aisling is a journalist and writer, specialising in the environment, the developing world and science. A former Daily Telegraph correspondent, she has won several prizes for her feature-writing and has contributed to books on a variety of subjects, including Bradt's guide to solar eclipses over Africa. Colum is a humanitarian worker. He worked for M�decins Sans Fronti�res and now works for the UK government's Department for International Development. Colum and Aisling have lived in, and written about, a range of countries including Zambia and Angola. Their other joint book is In Quest of Livingstone: A Journey to the Four Fountains, about their retracing of David Livingstone's last journey.
