Evocative

As an art critic I repsond to both the visual and the written word. And when reading Peter Guttman's "Worlds to Imagine" I found myself carried away not only by the exquisite photography of unique destinations but the tone poems of prose that accompanied each location. Brimming with imagery and told in an original voice, the text stands to enhance the sensual experience the photography evokes. Mr. Guttman's eye for detail and story telling are found in both. Soon I was fantasizing trips around the globe, excited by the prospect of discovery and exploration. I recommend this book to anyone who dares to dream.

An inspirational and beautifully photographed book.

I loved Worlds to Imagine because of its dreamy and lushous photographs and poetic, sensual editorial descriptions. It is a book that features exotic and fascinating destinations that have inspired me to not only go traveling, but I have given it to many friends as gifts. The text is delicious to read and the photographs are ones that I would like to have framed in my home. I saw Peter Guttman at a book signing and he is as vibrant in person as his photographs and words are in the book.

Inspiring- a reminder that there is still so much to see.

This book is so fun to look through over and over because not only are the photos stunning but the places are so unique. It make me want to pack up and travel for days to experience all these wondrous things that are right outside my back door.

Inspiring photos that truly capture each destination

It is said that a picture speaks a 1000 words and that is truly the case with Peter Guttman's Nights to Imagine. One taking the time to immerse themselves in these unique and beautiful photographs will truly understand the beauty as well as the attraction of these unusual "landmarks". (Plus all pertinent details are in the back of the book!)

Don't listen to Dan!

Dan...it may be true that the book is lacking content in text, but the wonderful photography certainly makes up for it. Do not take advice from someone who can't spell BORING (not booring). Yes, it is more of a "coffee table" type of travelers book, but it is great for ideas and dreaming of trips!
