› Find signed collectible books: 'Lonely Planet Story: Fascinating Story of the Adventurous Couple Who Backpacked Across Asia.....'Book summary:Founders of the phenomenally successful publishing company Lonely Planet, Tony and Maureen Wheeler have produced travel guides to just about every corner of the globe. Lonely Planet Publications was born in 1973 when the Wheelers self-published a quirky travel guide, Across Asia on the Cheap. This was quickly followed by what soon became the backpackersÆ bible, South-East Asia on a Shoestring. Going boldly where no other travel publisher had ventured, they catered to a new generation of independent, budget-conscious travelers long before the advent of mass tourism. The Lonely Planet Story is a unique mix of autobiography, business history and travel book. It traces Tony and Maureen WheelerÆs personal story as well as the often bumpy evolution of their travel guide business into the worldÆs largest independent travel publishing company. Not surprisingly, after thirty years in the business the Wheelers have an unrivalled set of anecdotes which they share in The Lonely Planet Story. They have been hassled by customs, cheated by accountants, let down by writers, banned in Malawi, berated for their Burma guide and had books pirated in Vietnam. Tony has been gored by a cow in Benares, declared dead around the world in an assortment of gruesome and greatly exaggerated accounts and their company has been accused of the ôLonely Planetizationö of the world. Through it all, from the heady days of discovery in the Æ70s to the rocky patch after the September 11th terrorist attacks, the WheelersÆ passion for the planet and traveling certainly hasnÆt diminished, and comes shining through in this enthralling travelogue. But above all, their memoir reveals the spirit of adventure that has made them, according to the New York Daily News, ôthe specialists in guiding weird folks to weird places.ö Advance praise for Tony and Maureen Wheeler and the book: "Like Apple and Starbucks and Ben & Jerry's, all of which began as plucky alternatives, Lonely Planet has become a mainstream brand." - The New Yorker "...the trailblazing patron saint of the world's backpackers and adventure travellers." - The New York Times[via]More editions of Lonely Planet Story: Fascinating Story of the Adventurous Couple Who Backpacked Across Asia.....:

› Find signed collectible books: 'Nepal: A Travel Survival Kit'Book summary:From Antarctica to Zimbabwe, if you're going there, chances are Lonely Planet has been there first. With a pithy and matter-of-fact writing style, these guides are guaranteed to calm the nerves of first-time world travelers, while still listing off-the-beaten-path finds sure to thrill even the most jaded globetrotters. Lonely Planet has been perfecting its guidebooks for nearly 30 years and as a result, has the experience and know-how similar to an older sibling's "been there" advice. The original backpacker's bible, the LP series has recently widened its reach. While still giving insights for the low-budget traveler, the books now list a wide range of accommodations and itineraries for those with less time than money.
This completely updated guide contains excellent trekking information (including advice for those planning to trek with children), extensive background on people and cultures, and essential pretrip guidance, including tips on being an ecologically sound traveler. Sidebar highlights: short overviews of a festival calendar, the Dhyani Buddhas, one traveler's account of a Nepalese bus ride, antiques, and the gods of Nepal. --Kathryn True [via]
