Format:Hardcover
Well known for his picture post-card views of Scotland, Colin Baxter has taken his work to a more satisfying level with this book of his Iceland photographs. Accumulated over many years' visits -this book provides an invaluable catalouge of what to see should you be visiting this unique country. Photographers and those with a special interest in landscape will find the map showing the photo locations invaluable. Good design, adequate printing, lots of photos, some very good indeed. Icelandair should be very pleased with its impact on tourism: very low Puffin count too!
Format:Paperback
The paperback book (reviews, contents, everything!) is totally different from the hardback book! The hardback book is a tiny badly printed book with no connection to the paperback guide book that is reviewed: DO NOT BUY!!

Low picture quality
3 May 2005
Format:Hardcover
It's been 4 hours, since I returned from Iceland, and one of my first things to do was to cancel my pending order of this book. Out in Iceland, I could have a look at what's inside, and quite a few of the pictures were disappointing. From someone with a limited amount of time (say, one week) and budget category equipment, this would be a nice book, but not from a professional photographer. Contrast is low in many of the pictures, and some of them were not taken at the right time of day (or right weather conditions).
From this point of view, the book 'Lost in Iceland' was way better.
I don't recommend it, if you want really nice shots.
