""Chasing The Sun Or Rambles In Norway"" is a travelogue written by R.M. Ballantyne that chronicles his experiences while exploring Norway. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Norway, including its landscape, people, culture, and history. Throughout the book, Ballantyne provides vivid descriptions of the scenery, wildlife, and architecture of Norway, as well as his interactions with the locals. He also shares his thoughts on various topics, such as the importance of preserving nature and the impact of industrialization on traditional ways of life. Overall, ""Chasing The Sun Or Rambles In Norway"" is an engaging and informative account of one man's journey through a fascinating country.Our Highlander was particularly successful about this time with his gun. The number of birds that he shot and stuffed was enormous. Whenever a calm prevailed, he took the light little Norse boat that had been purchased at Bergen, and went off to the nearest island with his gun. On these occasions he was usually accompanied by Sam, whose love for sketching was quite equal to that of his companion for bird-shooting and stuffing. Fred, of course went to keep them company, and was wont to carry with him a rod, as well as a gun, for he was passionately fond of fishing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
