DescriptionsEdit Descriptions

Vintage Departures is an exciting series of nonfiction books devoted to exploring the vastness of the world, one's life, or even one's own backyard. Vintage Departures will conjure up contemporary journeys of a different kind. Be it a trek across the Mexican desert, a voyage to Borneo or an interior passage through the back roads of the mind, Vintage Departures involve movement. And while each book takes the reader from point A to point B, none of them will be mere travelogues. The thrill of the trip, as related in each author's unique voice, is the focal point of Vintage Departures.
