The 100-year-old travel guidebook that refuses to die The South American Handbook has survived into the digital age – long may it weigh down the roaming independent traveller’s rucksack

Amazing to see a guidebook being reprinted for its 100th anniversary. Even happier that it’s for South America, and it’s the book I took with me 20 years ago www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/the-s... @traveloguer.bsky.social
