NYT Explorer Series
Dreaming of Dakar? Pining for Paris? Or fancy a few nights in New Orleans? The world is waiting, and since you only have so much time to see it all, why not inject adventure into your weekend? Since 2011 Taschen has transformed the popular New York Times “36 Hours” column into illustrated books which recognize that a journey does not have to be long to be memorable. Appreciative of everyone’s time constraints but equally aware of our increasing appetites for intrepid travel, these books balance natural wonders with cosmopolitan excess, pinpointing locations as diverse as Ho Chi Minh City, Buenos Aires, Seattle, and Palermo.
The NY Times “36 Hours” books canvas the globe. They have been categorized to cover labyrinthine international cities New York and Los Angeles, the West Coast, Southeast, Midwest & Great Lakes, and Southwest & Rocky Mountains regions of the USA & Canada, and the larger dominions of Europe, Asia & Oceania, and Latin America & The Caribbean. This best-selling Taschen travel book collection is essential reading for on-the-go traveling or leisurely at-home browsing.
Dali
The must have books Les Diners de Gala and follow up The Wines of Gala show the legendary dinner parties of Salvador and Gala Dali. With recipes from such leading Paris restaurants a special section on aphrodisia and bespoke illustrations from Dalí himself, this book is an artwork.
