The instructor at the local community college recommended this title to students taking a travel and tourism class. The title was not in stock at the college bookstore, so our friend asked if I could locate a copy for her. I turned to Amazon. Your price beat all others and the book arrived ahead of the promised time! The book is being used constantly as a resource book by the friend. Thanks.
