Travel Tales: Hotels from Hell
Is a collection of travel stories of one of the most basic experiences and needs of travelers, namely, securing safe and secure lodging during their travels. Indeed, of the nearly 2,000 travelers whom I have interviewed over nearly five decades, I've collected and chronicled the phenomenal, the good, the wonderful, and the fascinating of all sorts of aspects of hotels and lodging of travelers' stays. I've recorded as well for posterity their best stories in the form of ebooks, paperbacks, and audiobooks, just about anything and everything noteworthy that defines what the hotel and lodging aspects of their travel experience are all about. And along with these stories I've chronicled as well some of the not-so-good and not-so-wonderful sorts of risks and dangers of travel that travelers sometimes face with regard to their hotels and lodging. You might say I've studied and analyzed as best as I could the essence of travel safety and security while traveling abroad to countries around the world. The books in my True Travel Tales series include travel stories of just about anything and everything to do with lodging - all the sorts of situations that travelers may face in their adventures about their stays in hotels and lodges. Many stories are about the good and wondrous aspects of travel. And sometimes stories may even include the fascinating as well as sometimes the paranormal and psychic aspects of travel, too, and, yes, even the occasional strange and the bizarre. In all, this is a book on the psychology of travel with a focus on hotels and lodging in travel. And in this look at hotels and lodging in travel, we take a somewhat broader expanded look, and in some cases, we include hostels, campgrounds, safari lodges, cruise ships as floating hotels, and even as well the notion of a VW camper as a traveling hotel!
