ADNAN MORDENİZ- TÜRKİYE TURİZM
BERLİN – The jury has selected the winners of the ITB Book Awards 2019. The focus of the Destination Awards is on Malaysia, the official partner country of ITB Berlin from 6 to 10 March 2019. In this category the winner was the travel guide ’Malaysia – Brunei und Singapore’ by Moritz Jacobi, with Mischa, Renate and Stefan Loose (Stefan Loose Travel Handbücher). The aim of the ITB Book Awards is to focus attention beyond national borders on the broad spectrum of interculturally important travel and tourism publications. The presentation of the ITB Book Awards 2019 will take place at the Palais am Funkturm, the new awards venue of ITB Berlin, on Friday, 8 March 2019 at 4 p.m.
This was the second time the jury of the ITB Book Awards bestowed honours in the category ’Frankfurt Book Fair Guest of Honour’ (2019: Norway) at the Frankfurt Book Fair. Awards went to ’Stefan Loose Travel Handbücher’, the ’Travel Handbuch Norwegen’ by Aaron and Michael Möbius, and the four-part travel guide series on Norway, written by Martin Schmdit and published by Verlag Reise Know-How. Matthias Kröner presented the best city destination guide with ‘Hamburg’, which is published by Michael Müller Verlag.
The publisher Trescher Verlag has devoted itself to the increasingly popular and geopolitically controversial destinations of North and South Korea with two detailed and illuminating works: ’Südkorea’ by Klaus A. Dietsch and ’Nordkorea’ by Arno Maierbrugger. Each guide is a perfect supplement to the title ’Unterwegs in Nordkorea’ (DVA). The volume by Rüdiger Frank, a researcher and expert on East Asia and North Korea, received the prize for recommended basic reading and information.
The Lifetime Award went to Roland Esterbauer. The publisher received the award for his diverse and wide-ranging programme of hiking and cycling guides and accompanying maps.
Every year the ITB Book Awards recognises publications on a range of fields and current topics from Germany and abroad. ITB Berlin is collaborating with Börsenverein des Deutschen Buchhandels. The ITBBook Awards do not confer money prizes.
