Book Review: For Americans only
Summary: 2 Stars
I travel a lot and have a studied journalism so I brought this for tips on travel writing. It starts off well but quickly degenerates. The book is aimed squarely at Americans that have neither travelled nor written. It has a "what to pack in your suitcase" section and great advice like, "eat local food". Apart from having a tone tailored to ill travelled Americans, the text is mostly bulked out with anecdotes from the author's travels; which may be enlightening for people who take All-Inclusives, but for the rest of us are nothing special. Avoid.
