”Kaukasus og kildevand” fortæller om Bjørn Harvigs rejse til fods fra Sortehavet til Det Kaspiske Hav. Bjørn er ikke nogen almindelig eventyrer, det handler ikke så meget om at komme fra A til B, men mere om hvilke mennesker, han møder på vejen. Bjørn er god til at tale med folk, og i bogen genfortæller han mange af de skæbner, han mødte på sin lange rejse. Han fortæller om Ninel (Lenin stavet bagfra), som har 10 børn og som går tre km til den nærmeste sauna, for at få sig sit ugentlige bad. Han fortæller om drengen Nal, som drømmer om at blive fodboldstjerne.

"Igors æblehave" er Bjørn Harvigs beretning om hans cykelrejse fra det sommerlyse Skandinavien og ud på Ruslands uendelige veje, hvor landevejsrøvere spøger og vodkaen er billig. En rejse ind i de forladte byer i Tjernobyls skygge og ud til Sortehavets bredder. Ind i Kaukasus’ vilde bjerge, hvor middelalderbyer, Kalashnikovs og arrige hunde byder velkommen. Og endelig en rejse ind i Irans menneskelige mangfoldighed og til smagen af sød te. Kan gæstfriheden og Bjørns taknemmelighed over at møde fremmede venner overskygge de gribende indtryk af områder præget af krig, hungersnød og etniske udrensninger?
