About This Book
This work provides a detailed regional study of the Tyrol, combining physical geography, climate, vegetation and animal life with an overview of historical development and population patterns. It surveys mountain forms, valley landscapes, glaciers, rivers and passes, and explains how geology and hydrology influence settlement and land use. It summarizes historical processes and local customs, and describes economic activities, village life and demographic distribution across distinct subregions from high Alpine basins to southern foothills. Illustrated, map-supported chapters and travel-style descriptions lead the reader through individual valleys and towns while bibliographic and reference material round out the regional portrait.
