Spanning the globe, and nearly 200 pages, the Field-Tested Books book contains three years of reviews; 143 entries from more than 90 contributors. Our contributors tell us where they read the books they’ve recommended, giving each review a sense of place. In some cases, title and locale have little to do with one another. In others, destination played a role in the selection. It’s clear in every review that location impacted the reading experience. Perhaps you’ll find the perfect book for your own sojourn. Take it to the beach, use it to plan your next literary vacation, or keep it in your library for quick reference. A portion of the proceeds on each book sold goes to First Book, an awesome charity that buys new books for underprivileged kids. You buy a book and a kid gets a book. Nice.
