Über den Autor / die Autorin
Before his death in 2023, John Pitt wrote about travel and railway journeys for Thomas Cook as well as for newspapers such as The Telegraph, Daily Mail, The Sunday Times and in magazines like Wanderlust. He travelled extensively in the United States and Canada, clocking up over 80,000 miles by train, and greatly enjoyed exploring the history and culture of both countries. Pitt was the author of the nine previous editions of Bradt's USA by Rail, and during the time he spent researching the book, the conversations he had with people in the friendly, relaxed atmosphere on board trains gave him many interesting, and often surprising, insights into life in North America.
