Angel Fire, New Mexico by David Friedel With the 4th of July holiday this week, I’ve been thinking quite a bit about travel. Whether your family has a trip planned this summer or you plan on sticking around home, you might grab one of these books that features a road trip or travel. Discover a new place through another’s journey, either while you take one of your own or from the comfort of home. What would you recommend?
