TRAVEL TOOLS, GREAT GADGETS & COOL STUFF TO DO
Have Bookstore,
Will Travel
In an era when independent bookstores—particularly independent
niche bookstores—are quickly going
the way of the dodo, it’s a pleasant
surprise to find some travel booksellers not only surviving but also
thriving. These shops are owned and
sta;ed by people who have been
to many of the places you’re going
and who actually know the books
they recommend to you, and they
are happy to provide expert personal
advice about all aspects of travel—
including choosing the right guidebooks and maps.
Finding a guidebook is easy, but
which ones should be required reading? What is the best fiction out there
about your destination? Spend hours
conducting your own research—
or visit one of these stores, where
they’ve already done the legwork
for you.
