Each year the Bradt Guides New Travel Writer of the Year competition attracts hundreds of entries from around the world. The competition has been running for over 20 years, originally in association with the Independent on Sunday, latterly with Wexas Traveller magazine and as part of the Edward Stanford Travel Writing Awards. Edited by a former winner, Travel Write brings together over 100 of the finest entries to the competition. How does it feel to be sat on by a horse, to walk the streets of New York on the day before 9/11, or to be seduced by a goat in a French market? From a sledge run in Albania to a family reunion in Dubai, here are stories that span the decades and the generations collected in a unique anthology that will appeal to creative writing students and anyone who appreciates fine travel writing.
