In 2016, Lonely Planet launches the first of its annual anthologies of travel writing, celebrating true tales by great writers from all over the world. Writers range from big names - in 2016 that includes Richard Ford, Cheryl Stryed and TC Boyle - to up-and-coming authors and extraordinary pieces by non-fiction specialists. The mix of 30 globe-trotting stories is extraordinary, from hilarious anecdotes to hard-hitting accounts from the edges of the world, but what they all have in common is the ability to entertain and illuminate. Edited by Lonely Planet's long-term collaborator, Don George.
