"Books will never die out as long as beauties such as Lonely Planet's The Travel Book exists. More than a coffee table book, this glorious tome begs to be devoured by the curious traveller or armchair traveller...this guide is more compelling than ever. The book evokes the spirit of each place and has information for the senses: what to eat and drink, which books and music will enhance your visit and fabulous images." Get Up & Go "Anyone who has childhood memories of leafing through reference books full of brightly coloured pictures and exotic facts from far-away lands (Encyclopaedia Britannica or Funk& Wagnalls, anyone?) will know the pleasure that awaits in Lonely Planet's new edition of The Travel Book ... The 2016 update on the publisher's classic million-selling coffee table tome is one to treasure, for both curious adults and children...It's a great place to start plans and dreams."
