Lonely Planet now selling books by the chapter

Comments (1)

LonelyPlanetChapters.gifMost people still consider a guidebook an essential addition to their global wandering. Packed with sights, restaurants and bar listings, these weighty tomes generally require a wheelbarrow to cart them around. Geared more to the lifelong backpacker, rather than weekend breakers, a lot of unnecessary paper used to go into these guides, which in turn would add a lot of extra weight to luggage.

Now, however, Lonely Planet is offering readers the chance to download and print any chapters from over 100 of their books, including the Americas and Africa, meaning no extra paper wastage. This is also a great deal for your wallet, guidebooks aren't cheap, but these individual chapters cost as little as £2-£4. Pick them up at the Lonely Planet Shop. [Via Lost Weekend]

kinda reminds me of teh hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy
