The Artist on the Road - Impressions of Greece by Richard Sheppard

This is the author's first book, and it is delightful - I hope it's not his last.  It is a travel journal of his two-and-a-half-week journey through Greece, with his thoughts and drawings.  Since I hope to go to Greece someday, it is especially meaningful to me.  Combining this book with a guidebook should help me plan my trip, whenever that may occur.  I rate it 5 out of 5.

I just recently stumbled on this book on Amazon and I thought it looked terrific. I've been to Greece (I loved it and highly recommend visiting!) and I'd love to make my own travel journal like that.

I second your recommendation. I bought this earlier this year and I love his style. He has recently done some other interesting images in California that have caught my eye.
