1.Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman s Search for Everything Across Italy, India and IndonesiaEat, Pray, Love: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia
from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $9.00

Customer Review:
If this book were fiction and entitled "A Narcissist Travels the World but Sees Only Herself" it might be interesting as irony. As is, however, the combination of self-absorption and spiritual pretensions is intolerable.
Just about any religion has at least two components, an ethical component... more info

2.Into the WildInto the Wild
from Anchor
Price: $8.37

Customer Review:
The book as a work of literature is okay. I guess. It seems to meander about looking for something to say. In addition, I don't trust Krakauer as a chronicler, as it is my understanding that he played fast and loose with the facts in both "Into Thin Air" (to the fury of some of those who were there)... more info

4.I m a Stranger Here Myself: Notes on Returning to America After 20 Years AwayI'm a Stranger Here Myself: Notes on Returning to America After 20 Years Away
from Broadway
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
Mr. Bryson's half-hearted curmudgeonly approach to life makes for another enjoyable read by this author. He covers a wide array of society's peculiar habits with a mixture of surliness and confusion. The only editorials that were creative but somewhat ponderous were his columns dealing with his... more info

5.A Thousand Days in Venice (Ballantine Reader s Circle)A Thousand Days in Venice (Ballantine Reader's Circle)
from Ballantine Books
Price: $10.36

Customer Review:
This book was recommended as a better read than the current best seller, Eat Pray Love. While they are superficially similar, in that both authors love Italian culture, food and the joy of living, this book is more in depth at giving a flavor of Venice and background into Italian culture, through... more info

If you are one of those people who sees everyone by location, race, politics or economic status, this travel through America will let you see the great people of this country as they really are: Americans.

8.Tales of a Female Nomad: Living at Large in the WorldTales of a Female Nomad: Living at Large in the World
from Three Rivers Press
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, so much so, that I read it straight through in only a couple of days. Some of the reviewers criticize Ms. Gelman for casting her opinions about some of the culture issues, but I think she demonstrates that she clearly wrestled with this as I think most of us would if... more info

9.Bill Bryson s African DiaryBill Bryson's African Diary
from Broadway
Price: $9.41

Customer Review:
Bill Bryson is the funniest travel writer working today, I believe, and even when he takes on what is an unpleasant task - visiting one of the most depressed areas of the world in order to raise funds for CARE, he does it in a hilarious way.
In this short little book, Bryson not only shares... more info

10.The Motorcycle Diaries: Notes on a Latin American JourneyThe Motorcycle Diaries: Notes on a Latin American Journey
from Ocean Press
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
I understand that he was an important historical figure but his adolescent writings are pretty uninteresting.
I much preferred the movie over the book.
