| One of the things I really enjoy is watching
a movie that takes place somewhere I have traveled. It is really neat to
watch a movie and be able to say, "I ate in that restaurant," or "I walked
down that street."

| The Traveling Birder : 20 Five-Star Birding Vacations - Goodwin, a Toronto-based bird tour leader and author of A Bird Finding Guide to Ontario (Univ. of Toronto Pr., 1982), here profiles 20 birding ``hot spots,'' 16 of which can be found in North America and the rest in Spain, Britain, Kenya, and Trinidad. He provides descriptions of such birding meccas as southern Arizona, as well as lesser known locations like Reelfoot Lake (Tennessee). Several local hotels and restaurants are listed for each entry, as well as helpful information tourists should heed regarding a particular area (e.g., what noxious insects to expect). Goodwin's colorful bird descriptions, written in a readable style, are certain to appeal to anyone serious enough about bird watching to spend a vacation chasing after birds. |

| Golf Vacations Even Non-Golfers Will Enjoy: Southeastern United States -A book reviewer from Ohio states, "If you have one or more non-golfers in the family, it's important to plan your golf vacation for where there are things for the others to do while you're on the course. Our family had been planning a Myrtle Beach vacation and had found lots of "general" info on the web, but this book speaks directly to golfers with non-golfers in the group, so it was tremendously helpful to us. We're already planning a trip to Florida for next summer, based on this book's recommendations." |
