Everything you need to know to travel anywhere.

Veteran world-traveler Marcus Endicott has released an updated,
twentieth-anniversary edition of his legendary how-to book, Vagabond
Globetrotting: State of the Art, first published in 1984. A lifelong
vagabond and travel expert, in 1990 Endicott bicycled alone From the
Balkans to the Baltics, and became the first American to cross the
Soviet border alone on a bicycle. On this trip, using a solar-powered
laptop computer, he visited green movements and Green Parties in
Eastern European countries lecturing on the topic of sustainable
tourism and demonstrating Internet email. In 1991 he founded the
GREEN-TRAVEL mailing list. In the Spring of 1993, he coordinated
Issue 38 of the KATUAH JOURNAL, the bioregional journal of Southern
Appalachia, on sustainable tourism. In 1994 he founded the INFOTEC-
TRAVEL mailing list, and published his second book, The Electronic
Traveler: Directory of Tourism Information Sources, the first book to
include travel resources on the Internet. From 1992 to 1996 he co-
hosted The WELL Travel Conference.

The definitive how-to book for world travel, Vagabond Globetrotting
was first published in 1984 at the dawn of the information age. A
second, updated edition appeared in 1989. Endicott's next book "The
Electronic Traveler" introduced readers for the first time to the
nascent travel resources available in the then largely unexplored
cyberspace. This twentieth anniversary edition of Vagabond
Globetrotting has been extensively revised and includes hundreds of
essential web sites for travelers as well as indispensable tips,
checklists, and resources.

"If you find yourself thinking of adventure as a lifestyle instead of
a mere vacation, it can be difficult to find voices of experience to
guide you. But Marcus Endicott knows how it works, and this book
distills 30 years of vagabonding experience into a practical toolset
for escape."
Steven K. Roberts, Nomadic Research Labs

"It's easy to say 'travel is a vital force for peace,' but Marcus
Endicott has lived and taught that important vision like no one else
for more than 20 years."
Rick Steves, Europe Through The Back Door

"Marcus Endicott is one of the pioneers in the field of sustainable
travel. Travelers seeking an eco-friendly, people-friendly vacation
need to read this new edition of Vagabond Globetrotting. Based on 30
years of global travel and the reflections generated in the popular
green-travel forum, this book stimulates and educates. Highly
recommended."
Ron Mader, Founder, Planeta.com

"This revision of VAGABOND GLOBETROTTING only improves what was
already one of the best resources available for independent travelers
of every ilk. Endicott's massive road experience and unique
information-management abilities make this a must-have tome to me.
Happy trails!"
Ed Buryn, Vagabonding in Europe and North Africa (Ed Buryn Books)
