This hefty volume reminds vacationers that hot tourist spots are small percentage of what’s worth seeing out there. A quick sampling: Venice’s Cipriani Hotel; California’s Monterey Peninsula; the Lewis and Clark Trail in Oregon; the Great Wall of China; Robert Louis Stevenson’s home in Western Samoa; and the Alhambra in Andalusia, Spain. Veteran travel guide writer Schultz divides the book geographically, presenting a little less than a page on each location. Each entry lists exactly where to find the spot (e.g. Moorea is located “12 miles/19 km northwest of Tahiti; 10 minutes by air, 1 hour by boat”) and when to go (e.g., if you want to check out The Complete Fly Fisher hotel in Montana, “May and Sept.-Oct. offer productive angling in a solitary setting”). This is an excellent resource for the intrepid traveler.
1,000 Places to See Before You Die by Patricia Schultz Review
1000 Places to See Before You Die is a great travel book! I picked up this book to read about the sights in Paris, and didn’t put it down until I had read all about Western Europe and more. The sights the author has selected sound like both reasonable and exotic places to visit. I can’t wait to get started!
This is well-written must-read for true travelers and those who just dream of jet setting around the world!
