Conde Nast Chooses the Top 86 Travel Books of All Time
Posted September 25, 2007 by Rosalind Gardner · Filed Under Travel Guides
September’s Conde Nast Traveller lists the top 86 travel books of all time, as chosen by a star-studded panel (including Paul Theroux, Monica Ali, Jared Diamond, Geraldine Brooks, and Gore Vidal).
Here’s a small sample of those selected:
- Endurance: Shackleton’s Incredible Voyage
- The Great Railway Bazaar
- The Journals of Lewis and Clark (Lewis & Clark Expedition)
- Roughing It by Mark Twain
- The Worst Journey in the World: Antarctic 1910-1913
Oh, wouldn’t it be absolutely lovely to have the time to read them all?
BTW, I could have added about 30 more to their list.
