On the eve of the publication of his new book Travel Writing, LonelyPlanet.com editor Don George sat for an interview with Rolf Potts. The former Salon.com editor reminisces about his start in travel writing and recommends a handful of other travel books, including Paul Theroux’s “The Great Railway Bazaar,” Bruce Chatwin’s “In Patagonia” and Peter Matthiessen’s “The Snow Leopard,” which he describes as “a masterful combination of intensely personal exploration and intensely vivid description, infused with a searing, soaring humanity, spirituality and intelligence.”
