Travelers' Tales books luxuriate in that complicated, beautiful, shadowy place where the best stories begin, and the most compelling characters roam free. (ForeWord Magazine) Here in these pages is wonder and delight writ large - and a series of affirmations of a magnificent world... This book is a vivid and delightful testament to just why the world is in essence a wonderfully pleasing place, how its people are an inseparable part of its countless pleasures, and how travel is not so much hard work as wondrous fun.... (Simon Winchester)
