Learning To Read Books: Alaska's Ugly Side

Let's face it, there are times when you just can't travel -- or don't want to. Vicarious web travel can be a great supplement to boots-on-the-ground journeys, and we should know, right? However, our wise elders keep talking about these things called "books", so we decided to check out these paper dinosaurs a bit, and guess what, they aren't all a waste of time. Some of them are quite good.
We decided that if our members, editors, or both deem a travel book worthy we will give it our own little seal of Oprahooval and tell you about it here.
Our recommended travel books series won't give you the "Hairspray" song'n'dance, but it may point you in the direction of a worthy travel book or two.
Have a travel book you want our editors to check out? Send it our way.
