    2. On the Road, Jack Kerouac

    The classic tale of two American wanderers, Kerouac’s On the Road is one of the most important novels on travel.

    A thinly fictionalized autobiography, the book is filled with a cast made of Kerouac’s real life friends, lovers, and fellow travelers as they enjoy their cross-country bohemian odyssey that serves as a reflection of American counterculture during the 1960s.

    3. The Innocents Abroad, Mark Twain

    In 1867, Mark Twain joined a group of fellow-Americans to tour Europe and the Holy Land aboard Quaker City — a retired Civil War ship.

    4. In a Sunburned Country, Bill Bryson

    As one of the world’s most beloved travel writers, Bill Bryson once again impresses with his tales of adventure, far beyond the beaten path in Australia.

    9. The Beach, Alex Garland

    Even if you did catch the 2000 blockbuster movie, you should still read the book.

    With its dark undercurrents, The Beach is much more than just the tale of a backpacker finding the best beach in Thailand. Instead, it’s an engaging story of damaged characters, psychosis, disaffection, self-absorption, and ego.

    10. A Year in Provence, Peter Mayle

    Having finally realized his long-cherished dream of moving into a 2000-year-old farmhouse in rural France, Peter Mayle writes with warmth and humor as he describes how he, along with his wife and two large dogs, spent a year in a region that’s entirely governed by seasons and not by days.

    13. Into the Wild, Jon Krakauer

    In 1992 Christopher Johnson McCandless gave his $25,000 savings to charity, abandoned his car and his possessions, burned all the cash in his wallet, and invented a new life for himself.

    4 months later, a party of moose hunters found his decomposed body in the American wilderness. How McCandless came to die is the unforgettable story of Into the Wild.

    14. Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes, Robert Louis Stevenson

    Hoping to raise finances at the start of his career, Stevenson embarked on a 120-mile, 12-day trek across the wild Cévennes region of France and recorded the experience in his journal.

    18. The Geography of Bliss, by Eric Weiner

    Self-confessed grump, Eric Weiner, takes himself off on a journey to find “unheralded happiness” and finds it in some of the most unexpected places on earth, including Iceland, Bhutan, and India. His journal is equal parts laugh-out-loud funny and philosophical, and a very honest portrayal of one man’s quest for true contentment.

    Tahir Shah had always dreamed of escaping the gray skies of London and setting up home in the sun-drenched city of Morocco.

    The Caliph’s House charts a year in the life of this unusual family and their tremendous gamble.

    23. Unlikely Destinations: The Lonely Planet Story, Tony and Maureen Wheeler

    24. The Good Girl’s Guide to Getting Lost, Rachel Friedman

    Rachel had always been the kind of girl to play by the rules, so buying a one-way ticket to Ireland was more than a little out of character.

    25. A Tourist in the Arab Spring, Tom Chesshyre

    This classic travel tome is Wilfred Thesiger’s record of his extraordinary journey through the then mostly untraveled “Empty Quarter” of Arabia.

    Over time, Thesiger’s account has become an important guide to the modern Middle East.

    28. Blue Highways: A Journey into America, William Least Heat-Moon
