I waited a long time for this book - it was on back-order. And while it gave some good information about jobs I already knew existed, it didn't really give me any ideas for jobs I hadn't already considered.

So, if you want a traditional job involving travel, or to work in the travel industry, buy this book for more details and contact information. Don't buy it if, like me, you're looking for new ideas on how to make a living on the road.

For the reviewers who feel this book doesn't go into enough depth for travel jobs you have missed the point and unfortunately your career(s) will suffer from this. The book talks about travel jobs and gives websites etc. But more importantly it will help open your eyes to approaching your job search from the standpoint of doing what 'you' want to do - not what an employer puts down in a 3 sentence job description. This book is actually one of the best 'career guides' I have seen. Do yourself a favor and read between the lines here.

Authors talked for 282 pages but didn't say anything. This entire book could be reduced to an informative pamphlet.

The book has good job clues, and hunting guides, but some of the," what employers are wanting in you," needs to be re-researched.
