How to Travel Italy: Travel Guide With Tips and Secrets to Organize and Save in Italy - Rome, Naples and Islands, Florence and Tuscany, Mil, Travel Mark
Описание: The second of two new hardcover volumes collecting the major nonfiction writings of the "father of American literature," including excerpts from the rollicking, shrewd, and hilarious autobiographical works, "The Innocents Abroad, Roughing It, A Tramp Abroad, "and "Life on the Mississippi. "An Everyman's Library Original. Volume 2 of Twain's "Collected Nonfiction "contains selections from four of Twain's full-length books documenting his travels across the country and the world, including original frontispieces. In these texts we follow Twain from his early days out west as a fledgling reporter to his attempts at fulfilling a lifelong dream of being a steamboat captain on the Mississippi to his extensive sojourns abroad, where, along with the American "pilgrims" of the Gilded Age, he toured historic streets, cathedrals, and caves--viewing with disgust as often as with awe the relics of humanity's past. And although these events took place, and were published, at different stages of his life and career, Twain consistently lent his trademark wit, candor, and acerbic sarcasm to all he experienced. Here are adventures often too outrageous not to be true, tracing the growth of the writer who came to define a country and an age--and of the man whose keen awareness of humanity has provided an unmatched blend of entertainment and moral integrity for generations.

"The Next Frontier of Restaurant Management is of the highest quality and appropriate for Service Management courses at the graduate level." ? (Richard Ghiselli, Purdue University)
The Next Frontier of Restaurant Management brings together the latest research in hospitality studies to offer students, hospitality executives, and restaurant managers the best practices for restaurant success. Alex M. Susskind and Mark Maynard draw on their experiences as a hospitality educator and a restaurant industry leader, respectively, to guide readers through innovative articles that address specific aspects of restaurant management: * Creating and preserving a healthy company culture * Developing and upholding standards of service * Successfully navigating guest complaints to promote loyalty * Creating a desirable (and profitable) ambiance * Harnessing technology to improve guest and employee experiences * Mentoring employees
Maynard and Susskind detail the implementation of effective customer management and staff training, design elements such as seating and lighting, the innovative use of data to improve the guest experience, and both consumer-oriented and operation-based technologies. They conclude with a discussion of the human factor that is the foundation of the hospitality industry and the importance of a healthy workplace culture. As Susskind and Maynard show, successful restaurants don't happen by accident.
Описание: Speaking at a 1913 National Geographic Society gala, Hiram Bingham III, the American explorer celebrated for finding the ""lost city"" of the Andes two years earlier, suggested that Machu Picchu ""is an awful name, but it is well worth remembering."" Millions of travelers have since followed Bingham's advice. When Bingham first encountered Machu Picchu, the site was an obscure ruin. Now designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Machu Picchu is the focus of Peru's tourism economy. Mark Rice's history of Machu Picchu in the twentieth century—from its ""discovery"" to today's travel boom—reveals how Machu Picchu was transformed into both a global travel destination and a powerful symbol of the Peruvian nation.Rice shows how the growth of tourism at Machu Picchu swayed Peruvian leaders to celebrate Andean culture as compatible with their vision of a modernizing nation. Encompassing debates about nationalism, Indigenous peoples' experiences, and cultural policy—as well as development and globalization—the book explores the contradictions and ironies of Machu Picchu's transformation. On a broader level, it calls attention to the importance of tourism in the creation of national identity in Peru and Latin America as a whole.
