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.
what a wonderful list- I want to check out the Mrs. Adams’ trip book.
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.
Thanks for the links! I love the review of the President’s Wife!
love the map! Thanks for sharing.

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?

Link fixed. Thanks. Little things mean a lot. I had put a period at the end!
