A forthcoming paperback series

The Kaufmann Traveler’s Guides

History · Cities · Monuments · Landscapes · Food · People · Practical Travel

The printed companion to the Kaufmann World Travel Factbook. Where the Factbook is the digital reference to all 273 destinations on Earth, the Traveler’s Guides are the bookshelf — a designed paperback library, one country at a time. The first volume covers the United States and releases in In preparation, followed by Canada, Mexico, Japan and the Czech Republic in In preparation, with further titles rolling out destination by destination.
