Lonely Planet's Guide to Travel Writing: Expert Advice from the World's Leading Travel Publisher by Don George

kellylynnthomas's review against another edition

3.0

I am reading this for a travel writing class at Chatham University's MFA in creative writing program. We didn't read all of it, but it kind of got on my nerves. A lot of the stuff is just basic journalism, but the interviews with travel writers and stuff about markets is useful.

There is a lot of into in this book! Considering the small type and sometimes long paragraphs it can be a little intimidating but push through and you will find a wealth of knowledge on almost every form of travel writing imaginable. This book gives you an out line of different types of travel writing, the requirements and standards of these fields and even resources in several major countries.
