More precisely, when I press a hyperlink (in page 1) going to a new page (page 2) inside the book, I am enable to recover page 1 with the same view because I don’t know where page 1 starts (different from one kindle to another). Also using a Hyperlink in page 2 pointing to the hyperlink in page 1 brings a shifted view where the hyperlink in page 1 is set at the top of the page.
The back button that is present on kindle resolve this problem, allowing me to came back to the original view of page 1, but I cannot find a way to call previous button.
I’m looking for something like: Back to book, is this possible?
Also if this is not possible, is there a way to create popups in the book like the translation popups when I hover words or any other solution ?
Thank you very much for your help,
Abdel Badou

I believe that if you make links to another part of the book, and that linked-to part contains a link back to the original place, modern Kindles are clever enough to display the text of the destination link in a pop up with an option to go to the link location. But I'm uncertain as to whether the precise formatting requirements have actually been documented.
There's no way to specify "a click of the back button".
