As someone who has always favoured the underdog – the David rather than the Goliath – I have decided to work with Bookshop.org to financially support local, independent bookshops.
Now that may seem odd when I only have an online travel blog.
As more and more people buy their books online, this is a simple, convenient way for you to get your books and support independent bookshops at the same time. For every sale, 10% of the cover price of your order will contribute to an earnings pool that will be evenly distributed every month among participating independent bookshops.
Whether you choose to buy books here or not it’s a great reference guide for when you are making that choice for researching a trip or finding that holiday read for the beach.
If you read a wonderful fact or fictional travel-related book, and of course enjoyed it, then please drop me a note on the post on my Facebook page and I will gladly add it to the relevant category.
We hope that my partnership with Bookshop.org can help strengthen the fragile ecosystem around bookselling and keep local bookshops an integral part of our culture and communities.
Please Note: If you buy books linked to our site, we may earn a commission, whose fees support independent bookshops.
