Bester's Best
I have read this book repeatedly since the early 70's when I first learned of the novel. I have also read everything Bester has written in the scifi category. I have lost so many editions of this book (including a first edtion) loaning it to friends for their enrichment only to never have it returned. This book has served me as inspiration of human endeavor and spirit. I have studied ...

Must have! Wish I'd had it years ago!
We're a homeschooling family, and have started using this book in our co-op. It's so amazing to watch the idea of "team" unfold as we go along. This book is fantastic, so well organized and well written, and full of so many different ideas, you're bound to find something unique that works for every personality. We've participated in Oddessey of the Mind in the past, and I think this book should ...

Modern Garden Inspiration
I'm one of the lucky shed owners in this book Stylish Sheds and Elegant Hideaways. And I'm a lover of modern design. When looking through books and magazines I'm always flipping quickly trying to find the "good stuff". Debra Prinzing found the good stuff for her latest book. This book has several contemporary designs, but I found the other sheds just as beautiful and interesting. I guess ...

The best Travel Journal
My daughter received this as a gift a couple years ago as going away present on her first trip to Europe. She is now on her 2nd trip and I decided to pull her journal and buy a new one for this trip. Two of her friends were going to join her, so we started researching how to purchase another journal. Turns out that none of the travel journals we found compared to the manner in which this is ...

Extremely helpful

The travel metaphor is creative and one to which all of us, as scholars, can relate. The format is cohesive and the chapters flow according to the process of the dissertation format. The techniques ...

Best guidebook for Playa del Carmen out there!!!!!!!!!!
Joshua Hinsdale has written what I feel to be the best guidebook for the area. I do not think that he has missed a detail and I knew so much before I went to Playa del Carmen that I was able to have the best vacation possible.

Fifty Places to Go Birding Before You Die: Birding Experts Share The World's Greatest Destinations

2 reviews
Chris Santella

Stewart, Tabori and Chang, 2007

Surprisingly worthwhile (with some caveats)
I must admit that I was initially skeptical of this book. The author admits that he is not a birder, and there are inherent issues with these sort of lists. Even though the author is not an avid birder himself, he is not a complete stranger to the hobby. He was aware that he was not qualified to select the sites himself, so he solicited input from birders and ornithologists. Many of these are ...

LIFE: Dream Destinations: 100 of the World's Best Vacations
LIFE MAGAZINE EDITORS

Life, 2008

This is a book of enticements or memories--or both. The things we remember best and longest are the lovely times on vacation with family or friends. That sublime afternoon on the secluded beach on Martha's Vineyard, or that unforgettable crimson sunset as seen from the top of Coppertop Mountain. That extraordinary safari in Africa, and snorkeling along Australia's Great Barrier Reef. In stunning photographs and evocative text, the editors of ...

Fantastic Book!!!
This book is GREAT! It gave me a ton of great ideas and advice on how to plan a successful destination wedding. I've received a lot of positive feedback from my invited guests on every bit of advice I implemented. Things like adding some local currency in the save-the-dates and presenting the wedding as a organized and professional dream vacation have helped more guests commit to attending. ...

Secret Hotels: Extraordinary Values in the World's Most Stunning Destinations

Erik Torkells, Editors of Budget Travel

Stewart, Tabori and Chang, 2007

Beautiful places, bargain prices: go fast, before the others find out
You can't get a room during peak season at a resort for $1,500 a night --- the rich took them all long ago. So what can you get for less than $250 a night? You'd be surprised. The editors of Budget Travel challenged themselves to find resort hotels "that don't show up on big online booking engines or get written about in fussy travel magazines." They discovered an interesting, ...

Acadia: The Complete Guide: Mt. Desert Island & Acadia National Park

James Kaiser

Destination Press, 2005

A must have for the first time visitor
Terrific book! We visited Acadia for the first time this year. The author's descriptions are excellent, but most important his recommendations (on restaurants, things to do, which hikes to make, etc) are excellent. He gives clues on where to go for those seeking to avoid the crowds, and he also describes the 'must-do' tourist things on Acadia. Of the various guides we brought with us on our Maine ...

Susan Breslow Sardone

For Dummies, 2007

The only book on the subject you really need
I'm kind of obsessive, so I bought The Knot destination wedding book and the Destination Bride book too. They're both good, but this is probably the only one you need if you're just buying one. The Knot book has lots of nice pictures of other people's weddings which can give you decorating ideas, but not much practical info. Destination bride is good b/c it's by a real wedding planner. What ...

Dan Eldon

Chronicle Books, 1997

Truly Profound
I bought this book upon it's release in 1997. I can remember allowing the contents of this memoir to captivate me for hours on end. I lent my copy to a friend shortly thereafter and subsequently forgot about it. I recently ordered a replacement and I must say, this book is even more compelling than I ever remembered. Dan Eldon was a profound visionary, an articulate statesman and a devoted ...
