My disappointment is heightened by how much I anticipated loving this book. Like so many, I love to travel and miss it in the age of covid. But this book felt superficial and completely unedited. How many times did we have to hear about drinking a glass of chablis, serving Richard Gere, Eero Saarinen's design of the TWA terminal and the fact that some book of the authors was part of a Bantam book launch. These things all have their place (and I love Saarinen!) BUT they did not warrant multiple mentions. I learned little and probably should have DNF'd, but I kept hoping it would get better.
