The Green Travel Guide
By:"Paul Jenner","Christine Smith"
Published on 2008 by Crimson Publishing
We're always being told to travel responsibly, but how exactly do you do that? OK we all know you shouldn't flog it up the motorway in a gas-guzzler, but is it better to cross the channel by train or by ferry? Is it better to take a low-consumption car with four people in it, or to catch the train? This book answers your questions whether you're travelling in the UK or beyond, for work or on holiday. It also tackles other environmental issues about the impact you make on your destination, such as whether it's better to holiday somewhere unspoilt or somewhere well visited, and what food to eat when you're there. Full of practical help and suggestions, including great destinations for green holidays.

The Travel Book
By:"Lonely Planet,"
Published on 2010 by Lonely Planet
And here's the list. Everywhere. In one comprehensive volume. Defining everywhere was no easy task. Jotting down the 192 member states of the United Nations was the easy part; deciding which other destinations to include provoked much spirited debate and food for thought. We're very proud of this book, an all-consuming project that has involved huge input from authors, staff, photographers and experts from around the globe. Like any serious addiction, the travel bug requires constant attention. If, like me, you consider travel to be an important part of your life, then this book will be bad news - it shows us that no matter how far we travel, there's always further to go. At Lonely Planet we believe passionately in the power of independent travel to transform travellers and the communities to which they travel. Bringing respect, sensitivity, curiosity and a generous dose of humour to the travel experience is enormously important, and we hope this book acts not just as a reference tool, but also as a valuable introduction to a better travel experience. Travel is the world's most important business, but it means far more than just money and employment. It is through travel that we go out and meet the world and the world cornes to meet us. So open The Travel Book and dive inside - my bet is that soon you'll want to turn the printed experience into a real one.

Mark Twain, Travel Books, and Tourism
By:"Jeffrey Alan Melton"
Published on 2002-06-26 by University of Alabama Press
Winner of the Elizabeth Agee Prize for best manuscript in American Literature With the publication of The Innocents Abroad (1869), Mark Twain embarked on a long and successful career as the 19th century's best-selling travel writer. Jeffrey Melton treats Twain's travel narratives in depth, and in the context of his contemporary travel writers and a burgeoning tourism culture. As Melton shows, Twain's five major travel narratives--The Innocents Abroad, Roughing It, Life on the Mississippi, A Tramp Abroad, and Following the Equator--demonstrate Twain's mastery and reinvention of the genre.
