- Indie Travel Podcast has just published my own review of National Geographic Traveler’s new travel guides to Vietnam and Argentina. (Immodest announcement.)
- Great Site: Private Library, will help you build a library of your own, and tell you all the sources for books and how to get them at rock bottom prices. Here’s a 3-part series on books on railroads that you may love.
- A President’s Wife goes traveling: New York Times review of new book about Mrs. John Quincy Adams’ journey from St. Petersburg Russia to Paris.
- Interesting list of 10 unique bookstores. If you are traveling to bookstores, I would add the Singing Wind Bookstore, located on a ranch in a remote area of Southern Arizona. Fascinating owner and great collection of books.
- Just launched in May. Trip News Wire. All the news items a world traveler needs.
Don’t you love that map? If you click on it you learn that it shows sites of famous travel adventures around the world. Here’s the caption on Flickr: A poster featuring cartooned representations of worldwide famous stories. Woo Hoo! Let’s Go.

great list – thanks!
The link to the 10 unique bookstores, which really intrigued me, didn’t work. I notice also that it has a line through it in the paragraph above. Is there another link?

Thanks for the links! I love the review of the President’s Wife!
Oh my gosh I love that poster! I want it, but it seems no one knows where or if it can be bought.

I agree. Perhaps I should send a note to the photographer through Flickr and see if I can find out anything.
