“At last, a book that tells you what's beautiful, what's fun and what's just unforgettable—in every single place on earth.”
Newsweek
 
“The perennial guide to iconic go back and forth destination....We read the entire book, stopping to gasp, comment and bookmark several pages along the way.”
The Huffington Post

“[1,000 Places to See Before You Die] has joined the canon of classic reference tomes that earn periodic updates and cozy homes on the bookshelf next to the thesaurus. It is sure to land under many trees this year.”
—TIME.com

“Globe-trotters and vicarious adventure-seekers alike will find this full revamp of a world traveler’s bible even more informative and inspiring than before.”

  —BookPage
 
“It’s a big world out there, which makes it hard to make a decision on a vacation destination. The Internet can seem just as vast when it comes time to research. That’s why Patricia Schultz’s 1,000 Places to See Before You Die deserves a place on your bookshelf. A great inspiration tool that includes both the obvious…and the less so.”
The Washington Post
 
“She [Schultz] has managed to work a little literary magic here—and still keep her original 1,000 favorite places—by reorganizing and rewriting the content of the first edition. As all the time, her entries are irresistibly idiosyncratic, from ‘Beer in Belgium’ to ‘The Last Supper’ and Other Works of Leonardo Da Vinci.’”
Chicago Tribune
 
“The names of authors who have sold millions of go back and forth guidebooks are widely known: Fodor. Frommer. Steves. Oh, and don't put out of your mind Schultz. You know, Patricia Schultz. Still not familiar? Her signature title surely is: ‘1,000 Places to See Before You Die.’ [She is] the go back and forth expert who launched legions of bucket lists back in 2003 (before we even knew what a bucket list was).”
San Jose Mercury News
 
“Whether they’re outdoor adventures or simply armchair travelers, readers on your holiday list will enjoy 1,000 Places to See Before You Die. Informative, clear and accessible.”
Ventura County Star
 
“Patricia Schultz’s classic bucket list book of go back and forth musts have been updated, and the second edition has full color, revised information and about 200 new entries. It’s fun to peruse when putting together your go back and forth wish list.”
Chicago Sun Times

1,000 Places to See Before You Die...must set anybody’s imagination soaring. This is a book to browse under the Snuggie on a long winter night and daydream with.”
Delaware Star News

“For travelers who think they’ve seen it all, surely there’s a place you haven’t visited in this newly revised classic bestseller.”
 Pittsburgh Post Gazette

The world’s bestselling go back and forth book is back in a more informative, more experiential, more budget-friendly full-color edition. A #1 New York Times bestseller, 1,000 Places reinvented the idea of go back and forth book as both wish list and practical guide. As Newsweek wrote, it “tells you what’s beautiful, what’s fun, and what’s just unforgettable— in every single place on earth.” And now the best is better. There are 600 full-color photographs. Over 200 entirely new entries, including visits to 28 countries like Lebanon, Croatia, Estonia, and Nicaragua, that were not in the original edition. There is an emphasis on experiences: an entry covers not just Positano or Ravello, but the full 30-mile stretch along the Amalfi Coast.Every entry from the original edition has been readdressed, rewritten, and made fuller, with more suggestions for places to stay, restaurants to visit, festivals to take a look at. And during, the book is more budget-conscious, starred restaurants and historic hotels such as the Ritz, but also reasonably priced gems that don’t compromise on atmosphere or charm.The world is calling. Time to answer.
