Anthony Bourdain - World Travel

A guide to fascinating places, as seen and experienced by writer, television host and relentlessly curious traveller Anthony Bourdain. Anthony Bourdain saw more of the world than most people. His travels took him from the hidden pockets of his hometown New York to a longhouse in Borneo, from cosmopolitan Buenos Aires, Paris and Shanghai to Tanzania's utter beauty and the stunning desert solitude of Oman's Empty Quarter-and many places beyond. In World Travel, a life of experience is collected into an entertaining, practical, fun and frank travel guide that gives readers an introduction to some of Bourdain's favorite places-in his own words. Featuring essential advice on how to get there, what to eat, where to stay and, in some cases, what to avoid. World Travel provides essential context that will help readers further appreciate the reasons why Bourdain found a place enchanting and memorable. Supplementing Bourdain's words are essays by friends, colleagues and family that tell even deeper stories about a place, including sardonic accounts of travelling with Bourdain by his brother, Chris, a guide to Chicago's best cheap eats by legendary music producer Steve Albini, and more. Additionally, each chapter includes illustrations by Wesley Allsbrook. For veteran travellers, armchair enthusiasts and those in-between, World Travel offers a chance to experience the world like Anthony Bourdain.
