2013, 2014: Spitsbergen-Svalbard.com’s look back – the publi­shing busi­ness

Posted on 30. December 2013 by Rolf Stange

The publi­shing house Spitsbergen-Svalbard.com has been busy in 2013 as much as all the tra­ve­ling allo­wed. The fourth revi­sed Ger­man edi­ti­on of the gui­de­book Spits­ber­gen-Sval­bard is out. Sin­ce the first edi­ti­on came out in 2007, both the Ger­man and the Eng­lish ver­si­ons have been updated about every second year, that makes one new ver­si­on each year. In other words, this is qui­te a long-term pro­ject which is bin­ding qui­te a lot of resour­ces on a regu­lar basis.

In 2013, the fourth revi­sed ver­si­on of the gui­de­book Spitz­ber­gen-Sval­bard was publis­hed.

Late­ly this year, our new Spits­ber­gen calen­dar for 2014 came out. It won’t be the last one. But may­be, the next polar calen­dar, for 2015, will be an ant­arc­tic one? Let’s see. What do you think?

Spitzbergen-Kalender 2014

New book pro­jects are on their way, but con­si­de­ring all the other pro­jects and trips of 2013, the­re wasn’t enough time to get some­thing finis­hed this year and not in the very near future. But things are on their way. More about it when we are get­ting the­re.

This famous pho­to taken by Her­bert Pon­ting shows Robert F. Scott in the hut at Cape Evans in the Ross Sea, being busy wri­ting some­thing not too long befo­re he star­ted the voya­ge to the south pole, which was to be his last one. Regar­ding the wri­ting, I hope I find time for it in 2014.
