Classic Travel Books
Here at CTB you will discover an ever growing source of
travel-related literary wisdom written by
great travel writers past and present. This collection represents a
micro-targeted publishing effort, one which allows you the reader
to view photos and biographies of the world's great travellers and then view
their important books, all at one central location.
In addition to protecting, publishing and
promoting these exotic travel accounts, Classic Travel Books represents a
unique internet-based community where writers and readers join forces in an
exciting new concept called participant publishing.
Many of the travel writers featured on this website maintain websites of their own. By following the links provided on CTB, you the reader can order autographed copies of their books, learn about the author's forthcoming writing projects, and find out where they will next be lecturing and travelling. Thus, when you purchase a CTB book you're either helping support the literary legacy of a living author or working to preserve the works of great travel authors from the past. Finally, unlike traditional publishing methods which print books and then eventually pulp them, thus causing needless destruction of trees and paper, we proudly tell our readers that “not a twig is wasted” here at CTB. That is because our POD publishing system is so environmentally friendly. Since every title is printed as and when it is needed, every Classic Travel Book is a wanted book. There are never too many, yet we never run out of stock. When you buy a CTB travel book you’re not just supporting the author, you’re helping the planet too.
