South American Handbook 2009

by Ben Box, Ben Box

The South American Handbook is a legend in travel guide publishing. The one-and-only “Travelers’ Bible” has had its annual overhaul, giving you a comprehensive update of everything they ever needed to know about how to discover this fascinating continent. This new, 85th edition is unparalleled in its depth of coverage and takes independent travelers away from the well-trodden “Gringo Trail,” off into the wilds of the Andes, up the Amazon River, and onto deserted beaches.

Actually, I have the 2008 edition, but I imagine this one's equally bad. Why is it so hard to write a decent travel book?

Nothing compares to the Lonely Planet guides for the down-and-dirty what-you-need-to-know for travel.

But with Footprints I'm reaching out for new sources.
