 The world we live in April 25, 2008
Living in a college town, I have many friends who have traveled the vast reaches of the world. This coffee table book provides a natural segue for them to share their stories, turning to a particular page to say, "Look! I've been there!"
Besides being a good conversation starter, this book is also a great read. Travel "blurbs" are concise, wetting the appetite for adventure. As a teacher, I used this book to introduce my middle school students to corners of the world they never knew existed. You should have seen the excitement in their faces!
The beautiful images in this book do not claim to be a comprehensive travel guide, rather an open door to 500 new adventures. The other night, my fiance and I sat down with this book to choose our honeymoon destination. We love this book!

This book is very thorough. It introduces you to places in the world, and even in the United States, that you have never heard of or thought existed! Definitely a great coffee table book.

This book is not only beautiful and a great conversation piece to place on a coffee table to share, it is helpful with many websites and resources provided for wonderful little known places as well as some of the most visited tourist areas in the world.

i purchased this book as a birthday gift for my brother. now i don't want to give it to him. i want to keep it.
the photos in this book will knock your socks off. it's a lovely book and it's so much fun to just pick up and turn to any page. i recommend this book for people planning a trip AND for people who just want to see what a wonderful world we live in.
my only complaint: IT'S HEAVY!!
enjoy.
