Some Of The Books I've Worked On

Lonely Planet Mexico (11th ed.)
I covered the Central North and Northeast chapters, which comprise the fascinating but seldom-visited states of Chihuahua, Durango, Nuevo León, Tamaulipas, and Coahuila.

Lonely Planet USA (5th ed.)
I scoured the oft-derided but oddly attractive Great Plains: North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Iowa.

Lonely Planet Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos & the Greater Mekong (1st ed.)
I did the entire Thailand chapter.

Lonely Planet Thailand (12 ed.)
I covered Thailand's bold, beautiful, and often bypassed Northeast region; by far my favorite corner of the country.

Lonely Planet Africa (11th ed.)
Besides Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Côte d'Ivoire, which were condensed from my work on the West Africa guide, I updated the Sudan and Chad chapters for this continent-wide tome.

Lonely Planet West Africa (6th ed.)
I scored Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Côte d'Ivoire for my first Lonely Planet work.

Moon Handbooks Minnesota (2nd ed.)
The definite guide to the Land of 10,000 Lakes.

Wisconsin's Outdoor Treasures (2nd ed.)
My first book (now in a second, expanded edition) guides you into the great outdoors; whether it be state parks, national forests, or private reserves.

On Your Own in El Salvador (2nd ed.)
I was the editor-in-chief for this seminal guide to the "Tom Thumb of the Americas."
