Sir Arthur C. Clarke kicks off a second exotic feast of literary adventure that transports both the reader (vicariously) and the traveler (via practical guide) around the world. Twenty-four tales again raise the bar for the very best in travel writing. The stories by renowned travel writers are complemented by detailed illustrations of their subjects and helpful photographs, as well as thoroughly researched guidebook information.
