NEW SERIES FROM LONELY PLANET!
Americans have a great love for road tips. Despite the economy, Americans continue to hit the road. According to a recent Travel Industry Association report, weekend travel is more popular than ever with half of all US adults - nearly 103 million - taking at least one weekend trip per year. Almost 30 percent of Americans have taken five or more weekend trips in the past year.
And so the TRIPS series was born.
From time wasting to wine tasting, TRIPS (March 2009) is a collection of local itineraries organized by theme, interest, and duration. Each title includes approximately 50-65 itineraries and is designed to show Americans new ways to explore their country. TRIPS itineraries are split by geographical region and with themes such as: Food & Drink, Outdoors, History & Culture, Offbeat and City.
First of its kind, the first six TRIPS guides will cover:
- California
- New England
- The Carolinas, Georgia & the South
- The Pacific Northwest
- New York, Washington DC & the Mid-Atlantic
- Arizona, New Mexico & the Grand Canyon
TRIPS is sure to inspire Americans to get behind the wheel and explore the place they call home.
Please take a look at the California and New York, Washington DC & the Mid-Atlantic TRIPS galleys and let me know if you’d like to receive more info or interview an author.
