Book Lust to Go: Recommended Reading for Travelers, Vagabonds, and Dreamers by Nancy Pearl available from Bas Bleu

For those whose passions include reading and travel, Book Lust to Go is a most exciting reference book. In these pages, librarian and NPR book reviewer Nancy Pearl showcases hundreds of titles that are sure to enhance your next trip to anywhere. Organized both by destination (from Alaska to Naples to Zimbabwe) and by type of adventure (building a house abroad, hiking, riding a train…), the "recommended reading for travelers" presented here also well serves those who would really rather just stay home. Pearl loves books that give the reader "a sense of being in another place and time"--so her suggestions for globe-trotters are perfect for armchair travel, too. Prepare for adventure!
