Into the Wild - Jon Krakauer
Into the Wildartwork Into the Wild
Jon Krakauer
Genre: Essays & Memoirs
Price: $11.99
Publish Date: January 13, 1996
Publisher: Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group
Seller: Random House Digital, Inc. (Books)

In April 1992 a young man from a well-to-do family hitchhiked to Alaska and walked alone into the wilderness north of Mt. McKinley. His name was Christopher Johnson McCandless. He had given $25,000 in savings to charity, abandoned his car and most of his possessions, burned all the cash in his wallet, and invented a new life for himself. Four months later, his decomposed body was found by a moose hunter.  How McCandless came to die is the unforgettable story of Into the Wild . Immediately after graduating from college in 1991, McCandless had roamed through the West and Southwest on a vision quest like those made by his heroes Jack London and John Muir.  In the Mojave Desert he abandoned his car, stripped it of its license plates, and burned all of his  cash.  He would give himself a new name, Alexander Supertramp, and , unencumbered by money and belongings, he would be free to wallow in the raw, unfiltered experiences that nature presented.  Craving a blank spot on the map, McCandless simply threw the maps away.  Leaving behind his desperate parents and sister, he vanished into the wild. Jon Krakauer constructs a clarifying prism through which he reassembles the disquieting facts of McCandless's short life.  Admitting an interst that borders on obsession, he searches for the clues to the dries and desires that propelled McCandless.  Digging deeply, he takes an inherently compelling mystery and unravels the larger riddles it holds: the profound pull of the American wilderness on our imagination; the allure of high-risk activities to young men of a certain cast of mind; the complex, charged bond between fathers and sons. When McCandless's innocent mistakes turn out to be irreversible and fatal, he becomes the stuff of tabloid headlines and is dismissed for his naiveté, pretensions, and hubris.  He is said  to have had a death wish but wanting to die is a very different thing from being compelled to look over the edge. Krakauer brings McCandless's uncompromising pilgrimage out of the shadows, and the peril, adversity , and renunciation sought by this enigmatic young man are illuminated with a rare understanding--and not an ounce of sentimentality. Mesmerizing, heartbreaking, Into the Wild is a tour de force . The power and luminosity of Jon Krakauer's stoytelling blaze through every page. From the Trade Paperback edition.

A Walk in the Woods - Bill Bryson
A Walk in the Woodsartwork A Walk in the Woods
Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail
Bill Bryson
Genre: United States
Price: $7.99
Publish Date: May 4, 1998
Publisher: Crown Publishing Group
Seller: Random House Digital, Inc. (Books)

Back in America after twenty years in Britain, Bill Bryson decided to reacquaint himself with his native country by walking the 2,100-mile Appalachian Trail, which stretches from Georgia to Maine. The AT offers an astonishing landscape of silent forests and sparkling lakes--and to a writer with the comic genius of Bill Bryson, it also provides endless opportunities to witness the majestic silliness of his fellow human beings. For a start there's the gloriously out-of-shape Stephen Katz, a buddy from Iowa along for the walk. Despite Katz's overwhelming desire to find cozy restaurants, he and Bryson eventually settle into their stride, and while on the trail they meet a bizarre assortment of hilarious characters. But A Walk in the Woods is more than just a laugh-out-loud hike. Bryson's acute eye is a wise witness to this beautiful but fragile trail, and as he tells its fascinating history, he makes a moving plea for the conservation of America's last great wilderness. An adventure, a comedy, and a celebration, A Walk in the Woods is destined to become a modern classic of travel literature. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Paris, I Love You but You're Bringing Me Down - Rosecrans Baldwin
Paris, I Love You but You're Bringing Me Downartwork Paris, I Love You but You're Bringing Me Down
Rosecrans Baldwin
Genre: Europe
Price: $12.99
Publish Date: April 24, 2012
Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Seller: Macmillan / Holtzbrinck Publishers, LLC

A self-described Francophile from when he was little, Rosecrans Baldwin always dreamed of living in Paris -- drinking le café, eating les croissants, walking in les jardins -- so when an opportunity presented itself to work for an advertising agency in Paris, he couldn't turn it down. Despite the fact that he had no experience in advertising. And despite the fact that he barely spoke French. After an unimaginable amount of red tape and bureaucracy, Rosecrans and his wife packed up their Brooklyn apartment and left the Big Apple for the City of Light. But when they arrived, things were not eactly what Rosecrans remembered from a family vacation when he was nine years old. Paris, I Love You but You're Bringing Me Down is a nimble comic account of observing the French capital from the inside out. It is an exploration of the Paris of Sarkozy, text-message romances, smoking bans, and a McDonald's beneath the Louvre -- the story of an American who arrives loving Paris all out of proportion, but finds life there to be completely unlike what he expected. Over eighteen months, Rosecrans must rely on his dogged American optimism to get him through some very unromantic situations -- at work (writing booklets on how to breast-feed, raise, and nurture children), at home (trying to finish writing his first novel in an apartment surrounded on all sides by construction workers), and at every confusing French dinner party in between. An offbeat update to the expat canon, Paris, I Love You is a book about a young man finding his preconceptions replaced by the oddities of a vigorous, nervy city -- which is just what he needs to fall in love with Paris for the second time.

The Wave - Susan Casey
The Waveartwork The Wave
In Pursuit of the Rogues, Freaks and Giants of the Ocean
Susan Casey
Genre: Specialty Travel
Price: $9.99
Publish Date: September 14, 2010
Publisher: Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group
Seller: Random House Digital, Inc. (Books)

From Susan Casey, bestselling author of The Devil’s Teeth , an astonishing book about colossal,  ship-swallowing rogue waves and the surfers who seek them out. For centuries, mariners have spun tales of gargantuan waves, 100-feet high or taller. Until recently scientists dis­missed these stories—waves that high would seem to violate the laws of physics. But in the past few decades, as a startling number of ships vanished and new evidence has emerged, oceanographers realized something scary was brewing in the planet’s waters. They found their proof in February 2000, when a British research vessel was trapped in a vortex of impossibly mammoth waves in the North Sea—including several that approached 100 feet. As scientists scramble to understand this phenomenon, others view the giant waves as the ultimate challenge. These are extreme surfers who fly around the world trying to ride the ocean’s most destructive monsters. The pioneer of extreme surfing is the legendary Laird Hamilton, who, with a group of friends in Hawaii, figured out how to board suicidally large waves of 70 and 80 feet. Casey follows this unique tribe of peo­ple as they seek to conquer the holy grail of their sport, a 100­-foot wave. In this mesmerizing account, the exploits of Hamilton and his fellow surfers are juxtaposed against scientists’ urgent efforts to understand the destructive powers of waves—from the tsunami that wiped out 250,000 people in the Pacific in 2004 to the 1,740-foot-wave that recently leveled part of the Alaskan coast. Like Jon Krakauer’s Into Thin Air, The Wave brilliantly portrays human beings confronting nature at its most ferocious. From the Hardcover edition.

Seller: Workman Publishing Co., Inc.

The world’s bestselling travel book is back in a more informative, more experiential, more budget-friendly full-color edition. A #1 New York Times bestseller, 1,000 Places reinvented the idea of travel book as both wish list and practical guide. As Newsweek wrote, it “tells you what’s beautiful, what’s fun, and what’s just unforgettable— everywhere on earth.” And now the best is better. There are more than 500 full-color photographs. Over 200 entirely new entries, including visits to 28 countries like Lebanon, Croatia, Estonia, and Nicaragua, that were not in the original edition. There is an emphasis on experiences: an entry covers not just Positano and Ravello, but the full 30-mile stretch along the Amalfi Coast; Chichen Itza and Tulum are now treated as one, La Ruta Maya. Every entry from the original edition has been readdressed and made fuller, with more suggestions for places to stay, restaurants to visit, festivals to check out. And throughout, the book is more budget-conscious, recommending not only the Ritz, but also moderately priced gems that don’t compromise on atmosphere or charm. Following the romance, comes the nuts and bolts: web addresses, phone numbers, costs, best times to visit. Of special interest are subject-specific indexes, making the 1,000-plus pages entirely user-friendly, no matter if you’re dreaming or going. The world is calling. Time to answer.

Turn Right at Machu Picchu - Mark Adams

Rediscovering the Lost City One Step at a Time
Mark Adams
Genre: Essays & Memoirs
Price: $9.99
Publish Date: June 30, 2011
Publisher: Penguin Group US
Seller: Penguin Group (USA) Inc.

What happens when an unadventurous adventure writer tries to re-create the original expedition to Machu Picchu? In 1911, Hiram Bingham III climbed into the Andes Mountains of Peru and “discovered” Machu Picchu. While history has recast Bingham as a villain who stole both priceless artifacts and credit for finding the great archeological site, Mark Adams set out to retrace the explorer’s perilous path in search of the truth—except he’d written about adventure far more than he’d actually lived it. In fact, he’d never even slept in a tent. Turn Right at Machu Picchu is Adams’ fascinating and funny account of his journey through some of the world’s most majestic, historic, and remote landscapes guided only by a hard-as-nails Australian survivalist and one nagging question: Just what was Machu Picchu?

Get inspired and plan your next trip with Fodor’s ebook travel guide to Hawaii (including O’ahu, Maui, the Big Island of Hawaii, Kauai, Molokai, and Lanai). Intelligent Planning : Discover all of the essential, up-to-date travel insights you expect in a Fodor’s guide, including Fodor’s Choice dining and lodging, top experiences and attractions, and detailed planning advice. Added bonus: At the end of each Fodor’s hotel review, we’ve included snippets from TripAdvisor reviews. Plan your trip with the extra peace of mind that comes from knowing each of Fodor’s expert selections is reinforced by consumer experience and feedback. Easy Navigation for E-Readers : Whether you’re reading this ebook from start to finish or jumping from chapter to chapter as you develop your itinerary, Fodor’s makes it easy to find the information you need with a single touch. In addition to a traditional main table of contents for the ebook, each chapter opens with its own table of contents, making it easy to browse. Full-Color Photos and Maps : It’s hard not to fall in love with Hawaii as you flip through a vivid full-color photo album. Explore the layout of city centers and popular neighborhoods with easy-to-read full-color maps. Plus get an overview of Hawaiian geography with the convenient atlas at the end of the ebook. What’s Covered? Get to Know Hawaii : The island of Oahu is a great big luau with Honolulu and Waikiki, hot restaurants, and lively nightlife. Don’t forget gorgeous white sand beaches, knife-edged mountain ranges, and cultural sites including Pearl Harbor. The phrase Maui nō ka ‘oi means “Maui is the best, the most, the tops.” There’s good reason for the superlatives. It’s the most diversified Hawaiian island, perfect for families with divergent interests. The Big Island of Hawaii has two faces, watched over by snowcapped Mauna Kea and steaming Mauna Loa. The Kona side has parched, lava-strewn lowlands, and eastern Hilo is characterized by lush flower farms and waterfalls. Kauaii is the “Garden Isle” where you’ll find the lush, greenfolding sea cliffs of Nāpali Coast, the colorful and awesome Waimea Canyon, and more beaches per mile of coastline than any other Hawaiian island. Molokai is the least changed, most laid back of the Islands. Come here to experience riding a mule down a cliff to Kalapapa Peninsula, the Kamakou Preserve (2,744-acre wildlife refuge), and plenty of peace and quiet. For years, there was nothing on Lāna’i except for pineapples and red-dirt roads. Today it attracts the well-heeled in search of privacy, with a few upscale resorts, archery and shooting, four-wheel-drive excursions, and superb scuba diving. Note : This ebook edition is adapted from Fodor’s Hawaii 2012, but differs in some content. Additionally, the ebook edition includes photographs and maps that will appear on black-and-white devices but are optimized for devices that support full-color images.

Seller: Macmillan / Holtzbrinck Publishers, LLC

This is the true story of Franz Wisner, a man who thought he had it all- a high profile career and the fiancée of his dreams- when suddenly, his life turned upside down. Just days before they were to be married, his fiancée called off the wedding. Luckily, his large support network of family and friends wouldn't let him succumb to his misery. They decided Franz should have a wedding and a honeymoon anyway- there just wouldn't be a bride at the ceremony, and Franz' travel companion would be his brother, Kurt. During the "honeymoon," Franz reconnected with his brother and began to look at his life with newfound perspective. The brothers decided to leave their old lives behind them. They quit their jobs, sold all their possessions, and traveled around the world, visiting fifty-three countries for the next two years. In Honeymoon With My Brother , Franz recounts this remarkable journey, during which he turned his heartbreak into an opportunity to learn about himself, the world, and the brother he hardly knew.

Get inspired and plan your next trip with Fodor’s ebook travel guide to San Francisco. Intelligent Planning :  Discover all of the essential, up-to-date travel insights you expect in a Fodor’s guide, including Fodor’s Choice dining and lodging, top experiences and attractions, and detailed planning advice. Added bonus: At the end of each Fodor’s hotel review, we’ve included snippets from TripAdvisor reviews. Plan your trip with the extra peace of mind that comes from knowing each of Fodor’s expert selections is reinforced by consumer experience and feedback. Easy Navigation for E-Readers : Whether you’re reading this ebook from start to finish or jumping from chapter to chapter as you develop your itinerary, Fodor’s makes it easy to find the information you need with a single touch. In addition to a traditional main table of contents for the ebook, each chapter opens with its own table of contents, making it easy to browse. Full-Color Photos and Maps :  It’s hard not to fall in love with San Francisco as you flip through a vivid full-color photo album. Explore the layout of the city and popular neighborhoods with easy-to-read full-color maps. What’s Covered? Get to Know San Francisco :  First-time visitors should head to Union Square, home of the tourism trifecta: hotels, public transportation, and shopping. Try Chinatown for an experience so authentic you’ll feel like you should have brought your passport. Visitors flock to Japantown for ethnic shopping and dining opportunities. The only locals you’ll meet wandering the shops and so-called attraction of Fisherman’s Wharf, Pier 30, and Ghiradelli Square in the Northern Waterfront will be the ones with visitors in tow. Everything here is designed for tourists. Topped by staid and elegant behemoths, and hotels that ooze reserve and breeding, Nob Hill is old-money San Francisco. Monumental city government buildings and performing-art venues dominate the nearby Civic Center. The locals love Hayes Valley, the chic little neighborhood to the west. Locals also flock to Polk and Hyde streets, Russian Hill’s main commercial avenues for excellent neighborhood eateries and fantastic window shopping. For great views of the Bay Bridge, head to the promenade in North Beach. For history buffs and antiques lovers, Jackson Square is a pleasant diversion. Head to the Marina, the city’s yuppiest neighborhood for fine-wine shops, trendy boutiques, and fashionable cafes and restaurants. Locals come to the Presidio, the wooded shoreline park just west of the Marina, for a quick in-town getaway, the sprit-lift that only an amble on the sand in the shadow of the Golden Gate Bridge can provide. Nearby Golden Gate Park covers more than 1,000 acres of greenery, with sports fields, windmills, museums, and gardens. Hip locals come to The Haight for great secondhand shops, cheap brunch, and low-key bars and cafes. It may be proudly rainbow-flag-waving-in-your-face fab, but the Castro is a friendly neighborhood that welcomes visitors of all stripes. Shop the trendy boutiques and catch a film at the Castro Theater. 24th Street in the Noe Valley is lined with coffee shops, eateries, and boutiques. When the sun sets people descend on the Mission District from all over the Bay Area for destination restaurants, excellent bargain-priced ethnic eateries, and the hippest bar scene around. Or head to SoMa, the once-industrial neighborhood that now sports luxury condos, dance clubs, and restaurants. Note :  This ebook edition is adapted from Fodor's San Francisco 2012 but differs in some content.  Additionally, the ebook edition includes photographs and maps that will appear on black-and-white devices but are optimized for devices that support full-color images.

Three Ways to Capsize a Boat - Chris Stewart

An Optimist Afloat
Chris Stewart
Genre: Essays & Memoirs
Price: $6.99
Publish Date: August 18, 2011
Publisher: Sort Of Books
Seller: The Perseus Books Group, LLC

If you're wondering what Chris Stewart did before he and Ana moved to El Valero, their Spanish farm, here's one of the answers. He took to the sea, landing a job as skipper for the summer, sailing a Cornish Crabber around the Greek islands. It was his dream job -- and there was just one tiny problem. He hadn't ever sailed before and had not the foggiest how to start. In a series of madcap and hilarious adventures we follow Chris from a shaky start in Chichester harbour to his epic Odyssey to Spetses (a bucket would have been handy), and then on to the journey of a lifetime -- battening down the hatches on a trip across the North Atlantic. It's a journey crackling with Chris's zest for life, irresistible humour, and unerring lack of foresight. Dry land never looked more welcoming.                                                        Chris Stewart shot to fame with Driving Over Lemons -- Sort Of Books' launch title in 1999. Funny, insightful and real, the book told the story of how he bought a Spanish peasant farm on the wrong side of the river, with its previous owner still resident. It became an international bestseller and together with its sequels -- A Parrot in the Pepper Tree and The Almond Blossom Appreciation Society -- has sold more than a million copies in the UK alone. Chris prepared for life on his Spanish farm with jobs of doubtful relevance. He was the original drummer in Genesis (he played on the first album), then joined a circus, learnt how to shear sheep, went to China to write the Rough Guide, gained a pilot's license in Los Angeles, and completed a course in French cooking. Three Ways to Capsize a Boat fills in his lost years as a yacht skipper in the Greek islands and dodging icebergs in the Atlantic. It is that rare thing: a book about sailing equally fun for people without a trace of sea legs. Chris, his wife Ana and their daughter Chloe continue to live on their farm, with their numerous dogs, cats, chickens, sheep and misanthropic parrot.
