A Traveler’s Library, is after all about Travel AND Books, so some of the sites listed on my blogroll have to do with books–books about everything–not just travel. For those interested in books and the publishing business, here are three sites.
ABE (American Book Exchange) stocks all those out-of-print, used, and collector’s editions books that are hard to find elsewhere. So this is a fun place to browse. However, they also have one of the pithiest and most entertaining blogs I have seen anywhere. Most expensive books, most surprising, updates on book awards– it is all here.
Bookstores tells you where you can find bookstores abroad to feed your reading habit while you are traveling. This is a recent addition to my blogroll, after I landed on it while exploring another blog. A wonderful recent post talks about leading book fairs in Europe. I’m a little afraid of visiting a place that offers 7000 publishers in one place, as Frankfurt does. I might have a total reading addict meltdown.
Writers and Editors Pat McNees provides a home on the Internet where writers and editors can connect. This site has links to anything you can think of that has to do with books and publishing.
