Click on the ones that you peeked at, flipped through, read partially (or if you've read cover to cover, check it off too)
The list (admittedly eclectic) is not all guide books or travel journals.The main idea is to encourage interest in books by writers from all genres who traveled and researched far "beyond their own borders" for their source material and stories.
This list groups titles by:
-travel guides
-Table books (ie photo albums etc)
-travel Literature (non fiction)
-Popular sciences
-humanities
-Memoirs (with traveling characters)
-travel Literature (fiction)
-Other Fiction (representing different cultural, geographic settings)
