The product of a 2 ½ year, 46-country, six-continent journey to document and illustrate what truly makes an ecolodge an ecolodge, Authentic Ecolodges was published in September 2010 and launched worldwide in November, with an array of book signings and other events scheduled for the next few months on several continents.
