101 TRAVEL BITS IBD

Sinopse

For over 70 years, the Alaska Highway has been a beacon for tourists looking to complete one of North America?s greatest road trips across northern Canada and into Alaska. This entry in the 101 Travel Bits series will give you a sense of some of the history, attractions and features that continue to make the Alaska Highway one of the most famous road trips in the world. ***Travel Bits? are not your typical guidebooks. In fact, they aren?t guidebooks at all! Each collection of Travel Bits consists of 101 'bits' of information about one of the great places to visit in the world. This could be a 'bit' of history, a 'bit' of information on a tourist attraction, or a 'bit' of something else interesting about the location. A Travel Bits collection is not intended to be a guidebook to any particular location. You will not find the maps or pictures you would expect in a guidebook in any Travel Bits collection. No Travel Bits collection contains any pictures. Instead, each book gives you information a typical guidebook ignores: history, fun facts and interesting sights along the way.This isn?t to say that there are no pictures involved in a Travel Bits collection. Each Travel Bits collection is optimized for reading as an e-book. This format makes each Travel Bit interactive, with links to official websites and other information where it is appropriate. Thus, instead of raising the cost of the book to include pictures, we take advantage of the Internet?s enormous wealth of information to take you to where the pictures already exist. In case it isn?t obvious, because of the interactive nature of e-books, we highly recommend reading the Travel Bits collections using an e-book reader, as the print versions do not have these interactive features. Thank you, and please enjoy this entry in the Travel Bits series!
