Customer Reviews

Travel Perspective is the Book to read

This is a great book if you are thinking about getting into the travel field. It is not just a general overview, it is the nitty gritty details of how to do everything!!! The book is an older version, not sure if there is a newer edition available so some thing are not up to date. The internet changes in travel were really just beginning when this book was published but is it still well worth getting.
