Home Travel Photo Books A4 Portrait Hardcover

The full cover of an A4 portrait hardcover KR Maps Travel Book laid flat, back and front side by side. The front is a lake under snow-streaked peaks with the title set large across it; the back is a deep teal map of the Norwegian west coast, every fjord and island drawn into it, with the whole twelve-day route beaded up the coast from Bergen to Ålesund and the title and the trip’s own numbers set below

The same A4 portrait hardcover Travel Book, open on the table. A chapter opening across both pages — the painted wooden fronts of Bryggen along the Bergen harbour filling the left page beneath the chapter name, facing a street map of Bergen with the days' walks drawn on it

The same A4 portrait hardcover Travel Book, open on the table. Two printed pages — six photographs from the Flåm day — the fjord from the water twice, a rowing boat under the cliffs, a cruise ship far down the fjord, a yellow farmhouse on the slope and red boathouses at the shore

The same A4 portrait hardcover Travel Book, open on the table. Two printed pages — six more from the Trollstigen day — the hairpins climbing the valley wall, a figure at the viewpoint above the valley, the road from above, the waterfall beside the bridge, the river braiding down the Romsdal valley and the fjord at Åndalsnes

The same A4 portrait hardcover Travel Book, open on the table. Two printed pages — A chapter opening set like a magazine feature — the chapter name large on the left page over a photograph of green cliffs above the sea, an italic line under it and a long essay in two columns with a red drop capital, facing a full-page map of the fjords with the days, photographs, distance and weather set above it

The same A4 portrait hardcover Travel Book, open on the table. Two more printed pages — A moment page — four photographs of a forest path, a phone held up to a field, wildflowers and two walkers on a cliff edge, each with its own caption, facing the title, a written account of the day, a map of the path above the fjord and the day's numbers

The same A4 portrait hardcover Travel Book, open on the table. The book itself, standing open on a plain background — the printed case bent back so the front cover, the spine and the back cover are all in view at once, and the pages fanned open between them

The same A4 portrait hardcover Travel Book, open on the table. The opening spread of the book: the western fjords of Norway — Bergen, Flåm, Fjærland, Geiranger and Ålesund, drawn as one continuous route across a map of both pages, with the days, the distance, the number of photographs and every stop listed beside it

The back of the A4 portrait hardcover Travel Book — the whole route drawn as one line, from the photographs' own GPS
