It seems everyone I meet has just returned from or is about to depart to someplace faraway, paradisiacal, and fascinating. I’m not. So how about some armchair travel? This collection (v. II) has 30 take-me-away essays by notable travel writers and novelists. Florida, Ecuador, Italy, and Uganda are just a few of the stops in a memorable journey of history, art, nature, and adventure. The rest of you—send postcards!
