From Europe to the Middle East & North Africa, from Egyptian porters & Italian priests to Maltese sailors & Moroccan merchants
- as he cruises around the Mediterranean his pen cuts through the local colour to give an entertaining portrait of the Englishman abroad.

A social history of Labradors, & how they have become the world`s most beloved dogs, by writer, presenter & long-time dog lover Ben Fogle, whose beloved black Labrador, Inca, famously accompanied him on numerous journeys & adventures. Labradors are the most popular breed of dog in the world. Not only a great family companion, they also excel at hunting, tracking, retrieving, guiding & rescuing. But where did the breed originally come from? How did it develop? When did black, yellow & chocolate Labradors first appear? Did they really all come from Labrador in Canada & are they really all related to just one dog? In this first history of the Labrador, Ben Fogle goes in search of what makes Labradors so special. Their extraordinary companionship, intelligence, work ethic & loyalty is captured by Ben as he weaves the story of the breed into his own story of his beloved Inca. Ben visits Canada, discovers hair-raising stories of early Labrador exploits & uncovers stories of RNIB Labradors & Labradors at war, Labradors as working dogs & every other manifestation of the Labrador`s character. Exploring their origin, early characteristics, their use as gun dogs, as therapy dogs, as police dogs, as search & rescue dogs & last
- & absolutely not least
- as family pets, Ben tells the story of a dog breed which has captured our imagination & love for hundreds of years.

Lac de Joux area at 1:33, 333 on light, waterproof & tear-resistant map No. 3316T published by Swisstopo in cooperation with the Swiss Hiking Federation. Cartography is the same as in Swisstopo’s 50K hiking maps, simply enlarged to 1:33, 333 for extra clarity but without additional information. 1:33, 333 editions of Swisstopo’s hiking maps have cartography identical to the standard version of the country’s 1:50, 000 topographic survey, highly regarded for its superb use of graphic relief & hill shading to provide an almost 3-D picture of Switzerland`s mountainous terrain. Contours are at 20m intervals. An overprint highlights routes maintained by the SHF, distinguishing between hiking routes, mountain routes requiring proper footwear, & alpine routes where equipment is needed. Paths which are part of the national or regional network of long-distance hiking routes are specially marked & in the more recent editions are annotated with their official numbers. The maps show mountain huts, refuges & in remote areas also inns, plus roads with bus service & the positions of bus stops. All the maps have a 1-km grid of the Swiss national coordinates.
