not your average "the world is great" kind of travel book

This book gives us a more realistic view of travel. It is not filled with pretty, glossed pictures, but of stories, and souvenirs. Each story has it's own style, and that helps in giving a more profound view of the world, and of travelling around the world. This is not a sap-happy kind of travel book, and therefore is for those that don't have that sort of idealistic view of visiting other places. I found this book to be a wonderful collection of stories. The words on the back give it perfect justice in saying this is for those that are happy living with no fixed address, but also for those that are happy to just read about it. This is not a coffee-table book.
