Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
From a travel writer and ‘dark sky’ advocate, a profound and beautifully written exploration of our connection with the night sky, and what we stand to lose when we lose darkness
MoreLong description:
?A truly powerful paean to the night sky? CAROLINE EDEN, author of Black Sea
________________________________________________________________
&&&160;
At a time of personal crisis, travel writer and ?dark sky? advocate Megan Eaves-Egenes turned to the stars for solace. But those same stars, which have guided humankind since the very earliest cultures, are vanishing. As nocturnal cities bleach our skies ? which are becoming 10% brighter every year ? are we also losing our connection with everything that can come from darkness too?&&&160;
To explore her deep curiosity about the night sky, Eaves-Egenes embarks on a journey that takes her from New Zealand to Uzbekistan, Ireland to Argentina, the Himalaya to Japan, discovering the many ways that different cultures have mapped, mythologised and feared the darkness. She meets the extraordinary communities that have made it their mission to understand, preserve and celebrate the beauty of their night skies, learning to see darkness in a whole new way.
Blending travel with myth, history and self-discovery, Nightfaring is a profound and often startling journey through the endangered night, revealing its capacity to enchant and connect us.
