The perfect gift for anyone who writes about their travels.

This new hardback journal (A5 size) evokes the early days of Bradt Guides. Its distinctive yellow cover is a facsimile of the first ever Bradt guide to Africa, published in 1977 and covering 17 hikes through 15 countries. Hilary and George Bradt described Backpacker’s Africa: 17 walks off the Cape to Cairo Route as ‘the first book taking you on a walking tour of Africa’. You can read more about Hilary and George, and their trip, in the facsimile notes on the back cover.

There’s 128pp of lined paper on which to keep your travel journal, bring the memories together by drafting a travel article once you’re back, or make plans for future trips – or all three!

This durable and stylish journal is an indispensable travel companion.
