Beautiful photography

This is an absolutely gorgeous and inspiring coffee table book. I love to keep this out in my kitchen and look through it in the morning when I'm done reading the paper. The photography is gorgeous and it keeps making my list of travel destinations grow larger and larger. Beautiful, simple, and important.

MASTERPIECE of 'coffee table' books

A fantastic picture collection by the Lonely Planet team sorted into chapters BREATH, PLAY, LIVE, WORK, LOVE, CELEBRATE, REFLECT and DEATH. The introduction by Maureen Wheeler, Co-Founder of Lonely Planet, is one of the most amazing pieces of writing i've read in my life. In her words to ONE PEOPLE; regardless of nationality or beliefs, we share the joy of birth, the celebration of life's special moments, the need to find meaning in our lives, the strength to endure, the resilience to keep trying and the sorrow of death. While each and everyone of us may follow our own unique path, we are all on the same journey.

Color photos blend with essays on the current state of humanity

Other visual treats of the 'we are the world' variety have appeared in print; but ONE PEOPLE MANY JOURNEYS is the first in over a decade or more to pack a beautiful gathering of color photos of world peoples with essays on the current state of the human experience. Peoples from all stages of life, under all emotions, and of all nationalities are represented in a blend of full-page color photos and accompanying identifier of country, photographer, and description of photo contents.
