<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A photo-driven, deluxe gift-book edition of one of the bestselling travel books of all time, Schultz's #1 <i>New York Times<i> bestseller.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Named a Best Gift Book/Best Travel Book of the Year by the <i>New York Times</i>, <i>Entertainment Weekly</i>, Associated Press, House Beautiful, Business Insider, The Daily Beast, Forbes, Fodor's, The Points Guy, <i>Seattle Times</i>, and more</b> <p/><b>"This is the comfort food of travel books. . . . This book will sweep you off your feet."</b><b>--<i>New York Times Book Review</i></b> <p/><b>"Gorgeous . . . breathtaking . . . spectacular."</b><b>--<i>Publishers Weekly</i></b> <p/> Patricia Schultz curates the world. When she published the original <i>1,000 Places to See Before You Die</i>, she created not only a new kind of travel book but also a new way of thinking about our experiences and interests. <p/> Now Schultz captivates our hearts in the same compelling way her original book spoke to our minds. Moving from eloquent word to breathtaking image, she takes us on a visual journey of the best the world has to offer, and as we turn the pages and pore over these images, we feel it all: joy, curiosity, awe, passion, nostalgia (if we've been there), inspiration (because we want to go), and a profound and transforming sense of how lucky we are to live in a world filled with such beauty and wonder--to see tributaries of mist curling over the Great Wall, elephants grazing on the floor of the Ngorongoro Crater, the sun setting on the wild coast of Donegal, masked whirling dancers at a festival in Bhutan. <p/> The book itself is a thing of beauty, an oversize feast of more than 1,000 all-new photographs and 544 pages, every spread and page designed to showcase these mesmerizing photographs and hold just enough of Schultz's lively text that we know why it is we're looking at them. It is a perfect gift for every traveler, every fan of the original, every dreamer whose Instagram feed is filled with pictures of places near and far.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"This is the comfort food of travel books. . . .
