William Least Heat-Moon set out with little more than the need to put home behind him and a sense of curiosity about "those little towns that get on the map-if they get on at all-only because some cartographer has a blank space to fill: Remote, Oregon; Simplicity, Virginia; New Freedom, Pennsylvania; New Hope, Tennessee; Why, Arizona; Whynot, Mississippi." His adventures, his discoveries, and his recollections of the extraordinary people he encountered along the way amount to a revelation of the true American experience.

Northeast Italy is Venetia, the lush "terra firma" acquired by the Venetians during the Renaissance so they could spend their twilight years amid art and delight. That delight is still tangible in the country villas and superb art cities of the Veneto; and Nature has added her own masterpieces: Venice's lagoon, fabled Lake Garda, and the rosy Dolomites. Beyond these, Cadogan's guide takes you deeper into this stunning region, uncovered frescoed castles, rare Carolingian churches, wine roads and strudel in the Alto Adige, while East of Venice, beaches follow the coast all the way to multicultural Trieste, where spies spied, Joyce jotted, and pasta shares the menu with goulash and "blijeki."""

Cuba in Mind: An Anthology

Put Jonathan Raban on a boat and the results will be fascinating, and never more so than when he's sailing around the serpentine, 2,000-mile coast of his native England. In this acutely perceived and beautifully written book, the bestselling author of Bad Land turns that voyage-which coincided with the Falklands war of 1982-into an occasion for meditations on his country, his childhood, and the elusive notion of home. Whether he's chatting with bored tax exiles on the Isle of Man, wrestling down a mainsail during a titanic gale, or crashing a Scottish house party where the kilted guests turn out to be Americans, Raban is alert to the slightest nuance of meaning. One can read Coasting for his precise naturalistic descriptions or his mordant comments on the new England, where the principal industry seems to be the marketing of Englishness. But one always reads it with pleasure.
