New! The Out Traveler volumes strive to inspire sophisticated travelers by showcasing thoughtful and transformative travel experiences that set the standard of gay travel. These new and information-packed books emphasize the long-overlooked but incredibly powerful cultural and historical traditions of the LGBT community throughout the world.

Hawaii travel expert and former Big Island resident, author Matthew Link gives you the insider information on one of the world’s top LGBT travel destinations. From the hula’s great gay teachers to the openly gay beaches, Link reveals the queer history that you never get. Hand-picked, in-the-know listings for gay and non-gay lodging, dining, and activities portray the spirit of each varied isle. Included are maps, illustrations, gay-friendly ratings, and travel tips.
