The South Florida Sun-Sentinel’s Thomas Swick recently penned a column reflecting on his 2005 travels. Among the highlights, he recalled his August visit to the Book Passage Travel Writers & Photographers Conference in Corte Madera, California: “Everyone—faculty, students, bookstore staff—was so well-read, well-traveled, curious, friendly and passionate about the thing I love that I concluded that, if good Americans go to Paris when they die, good American travel writers go to Corte Madera.”
