As if Straight From Your Dreams!

This book is amazing. It includes the most gorgeous photographs, information on every place, the price, and the length of each activity. The author experienced it all himself. He chose very good places you've only imagined. He also helps you plan a trip with the directory at the back. It's incredible.

You must experience this book

Fodor's Travel Publications commissioned photojournalist Peter Guttman to document some 28 different escapist experiences in North America, and the result is truly delightful. Guttman's photography is brilliant, his essays crisply capture the essence of each adventure, and the appendix lists the names of specific organizations that one can contact (and contract) to engage in each of the documented experiences.I gained an added insight from Guttman's chapter titles (Houseboating - Portaging - Mountain Biking - Cattle Driving Roundups - Olympic Bobsledding - Tall Ship Sailing - Tornado Chasing - Canyoneering - Wagon Trail Pioneering - Harp Seal Viewing - Iceberg Tracking - Puffin Birding - Race Car Driving - Hot Air Balooing - Climbing - Spelunking - White-Water Rafting - Canoing Swamp Trails - Heli-Hiking - Hiking Hut to Hut - Whale Kissing - Llama Trekking - Open Cockpit Barnstorming - Land Yachting - Reenacting Historic Battles - Iceboating - Encountering Polar Bears - Dogsledding): Words used to describe experiences end in "ing." It is the use-ing of a good that is the experience! I've been using that heuristic ever since, encouraging experience stagers to "Ing the Thing."
