Edited by Klara Glowczewska, Conde Nast Traveler has created A Book of Unforgettable Journeys. Some of the best writers have gathered together to create a memorable journey that will entice and stimulate your senses with the urge to explore each destinations yourself. Gather together some of the country's most renowned writers and you have a mix of eclectic minds who can weave a fanciful tale while telling you exactly where to find the best meal on your journey.

In this entertaining book we travel afar to Japan with Nicole Krauss and her husband, who are in search of ideas for the perfect garden. Each journey in this Book of Unforgettable Journeys is a glimpse into the history of places many dream of visiting, and few do.

In my youth I traveled, or perhaps, I should say stumbled upon the grand city of Savannah, Georgia. Each step you take along these historic streets is moving. Here you will discover a peace that can only be found in the sweet south. It's magic touched me as it did Nik Cohn, who learns to savor life at a slower pace.

Our journey is not over yet. This unique and globe-spanning collection of travel writing invites us to visit Prague with Francine Prose, Barcelona with Robert Hughes, Japan with Nicole Krauss, the isle of Capri with Shirley Hazzard, and the Florida Everglades with Russell Banks.

As I relaxed on our front porch, sipping my wine, I imagined what life is like in these far away places. I dared to dream what it would be like to walk among the ruins in Athens, and travel off into Hawaii's lush landscape to become one with the gods. Flipping through the pages I found myself spellbound by the entertaining tales and insightful information, which is ideal for planning a trip to a distant shore. For twenty years, Conde Nast Traveler has paired the best writers with many of the world's most intriguing places. Now, we can slip between these pages and let our imaginations run free as we enjoy each journey as if it were our own.
