Thanks to Bradt's status as the largest remaining independently owned travel publisher in the UK and one of the most respected travel publishing brands worldwide, it is uniquely positioned to champion good writing, bringing the same level of high expectations to the written word that it seeks in the travel experience itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow, for the first time, Bradt is thrilled to present a select anthology of the finest pieces of writing that have graced the judges' eyes over the past two decades. In keeping with the spirit of the competition, both new and previously published writers are included, representing young and old, from countries across the globe, and offering a collection of true stories that reflect our insatiable appetite for travel, adventure, and connection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll of these tales vividly paint pictures through the power of their writing, each fitting within the strict 800-word limit (one of the competition's requirements). Six themed chapters encompass remarkable places, extraordinary people, encounters with wildlife, real terror, history, and learning and reflection. In total, 95 stories cover a wide range of experiences, from border guard mix-ups, wild animals, and dodgy navigation to a day trip to Iceland and being seduced by a goat in a French market.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom soothing, familiar scenes in some of our favorite destinations to unrepeatable and uncomfortable exploits in obscure corners of the world, these stories offer the perfect opportunity for virtual travel. You might even be inspired for your next trip!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo, sit back, relax, and let us tell you our stories.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 408g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 198 x 129 x 22 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781784778491\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Celia Dillow","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094624825594,"sku":"9781784778491","price":7.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/f206320d4c4705d32a20f9920f692ecb.jpg?v=1631935141","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/travel-write-select-entries-from-20-years-of-the-bradt-travel-writing-competition","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
