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.

This comprehensive review of “all thing travel” is an appropriate text for those just beginning a career in travel. Every aspect of the travel industry is covered, from air travel to rail to tours to ships. Both domestic and international air travel is covered thoroughly.

If you are a budding travel agent wannabe, or if you are curious about the inner workings of the travel industry, this book will get you very far up the learning curve.
