A beat-up old car, a few dollars in the pocket and a sense of adventure. In 1972 that’s all Tony and Maureen Wheeler needed for the trip of a lifetime – across Europe and Asia overland to Australia. It took several months, and at the end – broke but inspired – they sat at their kitchen table writing and stapling together their first travel guide, Across Asia on the Cheap. Within a week they’d sold 1500 copies and Lonely Planet was born. One hundred million guidebooks later, Lonely Planet is the world’s leading travel guide publisher with content to almost every destination on the planet.

June 23, 2024Pretty basic and straight-forward, a little dated due to the advancement of technology, but good enough for a beginner. The most helpful part for me is the inclusion of phonetic pronunciations. You can probably read the phrase section cover-to-cover in an hour or so. There's also a common word dictionary in the back, which isn't comprehensive but might serve to get you started.
