NEW BOOK => Vagabond Globetrotting 3, by M. L. Endicott
Marcus L. Endicott Store
http://www.lulu.com/mendicott Vagabond Globetrotting 3 The Electronic Traveler in the New Millennium Twentieth Anniversary Edition Updated and Expanded Copyright Year: © 2004 ISBN: 1-4116-0471-7 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) Marcus L. Endicott Store http://www.lulu.com/mendicott --multiplaza.nl.nu-- |
