A Voyage Long and Strange by Tony Horwitz Published by Picador in 2008 in New York City Physical Contents: This book did not include any footnotes or photographs, but it did have a preface, illustrations, maps, and illustrations. The preface is an introduction to why Horwitz is writing the book.

I would never recommend it to anyone, but that is just because of the topic. I would recommend it to someone next year when they do their first nine weeks book review, or if they just had an unquenchable thirst for early exploration, but those are about the only circumstances that I would recommend this book.
