Part foreign affairs discourse and part twisted self-help guide, this book takes the reader from America to Iceland to India in search of happiness using a beguiling mixture of travel, psychology, science and humor to investigate not what happiness is, but where it is with engaging wit and surprising insight. The merchant-traveler from Venice, the first to cross the entire continent of Asia, provided us with accurate descriptions of life in China, Tibet, India, and a hundred other lands, and recorded customs, natural history, strange sights, and historical legends.

John Cook led three famous expeditions to the Pacific Ocean in voyages that ranged from the Antarctic circle to the Arctic Sea, bringing back detailed descriptions of the natural history of the Pacific, Australia, and New Zealand. His journals tell the story of these voyages as Cook wanted it to be told, radiating the ambition, courage, and skill which enabled him to carry out an unrivaled series of expeditions in dangerous waters.

Essential reading for both the ardent adventurer and the armchair traveler. In Life is a Trip , Judith Fein takes readers on 14 exotic journeys where she learns from other cultures new and transformative approaches to family discord, death, success, fear, faith, forgiveness and overcoming trauma.

This book is immensely readable, steeped in a spirit of connecting with place, with each other, and with our inner selves. Rather than lavishing pages on the sumptuous taste of a sun-ripened olive in Provence, philosopher de Botton examines what inspires us to escape the humdrum and purchase tickets to Tahiti, tromp through the countryside, or wander Rome. Left to one voice, such an inquiry might grow dull, but de Botton uses the works of artists Baudelaire, Wordsworth, Van Gogh and writers to explore the premise. The Art of Travel is one of the wisest and most original travel books.

This book takes readers on an irresistible series of adventures in Europe, Asia, the Caribbean, Latin America, and details the effects of globalization on the casual traveler while pondering the future of travel as we know it. Young and independent, she crisscrosses continents and chases the exotic, both in culture and in romance.

Exquisitely researched and told at a galloping pace, this book, peopled with unforgettable characters, soars across the globe from London to Peru to Philadelphia to Tahiti to Amsterdam. But most memorable of all, it is the story of Alma Whittaker, who bears witness to the Industrial Revolution and that extraordinary moment in human history when all the old assumptions about science, religion, commerce, and class were exploding into dangerous new ideas.

As her candid coming-of-age journey takes her to Australia and South America, curious Rachel discovers and embraces her love of travel and unlocks more truths about herself than she ever realized she was seeking. A riveting and relatable read. Mark Twain acclaims his voyage from New York City to Europe and the Holy Land in a book so funny and provocative it made him an international star. He responded with wonder and amazement, but also with exasperation, irritation, disbelief.

Above all he displayed the great energy of his humour. He drives the interstates and the country roads, dines with truckers, encounters bears at Yellowstone and old friends in San Francisco. Along the way he reflects on the American character, racial hostility, the particular form of American loneliness he finds almost everywhere, and the unexpected kindness of strangers. Hemingway beautifully captures the fragile magic of a special time and place, and he manages to be nostalgic without hitting any false notes of sentimentality.

With a little math and a lot of determination, Janice cuts back, saves up, and buys herself two years of freedom in Europe. Through a combination of sign language and franglais, they embark on a whirlwind romance. But her dwindling savings force her to turn to her three loves—words, art, and Christophe—to figure out a way to make her happily-ever-after in Paris last forever.

Veering from the ludicrous to the endearing and back again, Notes From a Small Island is a delightfully irreverent jaunt around the nation that has produced zebra crossings and Shakespeare, and places with names like Farleigh Wallop and Titsey.
