V publikaciji so objavljene ekskurzije Ljubljanskega geografskega društva, izvedene med aprilom 2015 in majem 2019. Če posamezne prispevke skušamo razčleniti po njihovih poglavitnih značilnostih, lahko izpostavimo nekaj zanimivih spoznanj. Naj najprej izpostavimo njihovo osredotočenost v zahodnem delu Slovenije. Kot območje izrazite regionalne prevlade izstopa jugozahodna Slovenija, pri čemer so udeleženci kar dveh ekskurzij s pridom izkoristili na široko razprto državno mejo z Italijo, nastalo z vstopom Slovenije v šengensko območje. Zaznavna je tudi raznovrstnost ekskurzij glede na način izvedbe. Klasične avtobusne prevoze praviloma popestri pešačenje. Povsem drugačna logistika je bila potrebna za izvedbo kolesarske ekskurzije po slovenskem in italijanskem Krasu. Nadaljuje se težnja, da geografska spoznanja v vse večji meri dopolnjujejo vsebine drugih disciplin, predvsem arheologije in etnologije, kar ekskurzije zagotovo bogati tako zaradi drugačnega videnja pokrajine kot poudarkov, ki jih geografi na svojih poteh navadno prezremo ali o njih ne vemo prav veliko.
Monografija izrisuje zgodovino dvorca Podšentjur v zasavskem Podkumu do danes. Med podšentjurskimi graščaki pripada posebno mesto rodbini Čop, ki je dvorec kupila leta 1748, od zemljiške odveze leta 1848 pa kontinuirano kmetuje na nekdanji dominikalni posesti. Prva posebnost Podšentjurja je dolgotrajno lastništvo Čopovega rodu, saj so Čopi danes na Slovenskem najstarejša od samo dveh rodbin graščakov neplemiškega izvora, ki se lahko pohvalita, da sežejo njune korenine še v čas pred prelomnim letom 1848. Druga posebnost je nastanek dvorca, ki se je razvil v drugi polovici 16. stoletja iz posesti kmetov Zavrlov. Ti so se v dveh ali treh generacijah povzpeli od navadnih podložnikov do zemljiških gospodov, zadnja predstavnica te rodbine pa se je celo poročila s plemičem. Končno ne gre prezreti tretje posebnosti, dejstva, da sta v 20. stoletju potonila v pozabo tako ime dvorca kot sploh spomin na Čopovo hišo kot nekdanji dvorec ter na Čope kot graščake in zemljiške gospode.
