I did a search on Ledray just to see if she's written anything on solo travel since this book was published almost 20 years ago. I am still patiently awaiting volume 2. It's one of my all-time favorite travel books, and still has some relevence today. Her format is to devote a chapter to each of several trips detailing how they would be suitable for a solo traveler. Think Kentucky Derby, a spa in Baden-Baden, the Orient Express, dog sledding. If you can find one, buy it. It will fuel your imagination and you can always find updated information. But her suggestions for, say, the Derby are right on today as they were back in '88.
