This fast-growing series got its start with the venerable South American Handbook., currently in its 75th edition. Now separate volumes cover nearly every country in South America, as well as countries in Asia, the Middle East and Africa. Each compact cloth-bound book contains an extraordinary array of practical travel information, as well as essays on local history, politics, and culture. The emphasis is on unusual and off-the-beaten path places, detailed transportation information and budget choices in food and lodging. Careful research and great directions (with good maps) make these guides a big help to independent travellers. Some of the titles are updated annually as noted, the rest are updated roughly every two years.
