Thanks

Travelling in good company increases the joy and diminishes the pain and frustration if things go wrong. I am very grateful to all who have accompanied me on my journeys over the years and to those who have been my hosts in faraway places. Many of them figure in this book. Here I would like to mention three of them: my father Albert Herzmann, my uncle Erich Braumüller, and my wife Ursula Willig. My father planted the seed of wanderlust in me when he was reminiscing about his holidays by the Adriatic Sea in Croatia before the Second World War. Uncle Erich has made me love the mountains. Ursula has been a superb travel companion over the past four decades.

My first readers were Ursula, Gray Cahill and Siobhan Parkenson. Their comments and critique have helped me a lot. David Herman, David Jabobs and Gray Cahill undertook the arduous task of proofreading and helping me with my English. I would like to say a big thank you to all of them!
