OUR STORY
A beat-up old car, a few dollars in the pocket and a sense of adventure. In 1972 that’s all Tony and Maureen Wheeler needed for the trip of a lifetime – across Europe and Asia overland to Australia. It took several months, and at the end – broke but inspired – they sat at their kitchen table writing and stapling together their first travel guide, Across Asia on the Cheap. Within a week they’d sold 1500 copies and Lonely Planet was born. One hundred million guidebooks later, Lonely Planet is the world’s leading travel guide publisher with content to almost every destination on the planet.

This book was free when I downloaded it to my Nook library from Barnes and Noble. I grouped my travel books from my nonfiction shelf and those are the ones I'm reading on this Nook.
This is a sampler with a tidbit of basic information taken from other Lonely Planet books. As for the question of Hawaii or the Caribbean, the answer seems to be based on how expensive or how long will your airplane ride be. There are many links to other websites for specific countries.
I recommend this only if it is still available for free.

It was okay, I guess, but didn't really tell me much more than I already knew about these destinations.
More for the novice traveller.
