The autobiography of Lonely Planet founders Tony & Maureen Wheeler gives a fascinating glimpse of this era, and turns into a startup story along the way. Highly recommended for Hacker News readers who also like travel!

Unlikely Destinations aka Once While Travelling aka The Lonely Planet Story (no, I don't know why it has three different names/editions...)

Disclaimer: I used to work for LP back in the day, and had the pleasure of meeting Tony & Maureen on several occasions.
