Best book gifts

There are a few books I have given as gifts which were appreciated a lot. One of them is Lonely Planet the Travel Book. It has beautiful pictures from every single country in the world and I think it's worth more than it's price ($19.80 last time I checked.)


Another similar one is Through the Lens: National Geographic's Greatest Photographs. This book features 250 of about 10.5 million pictures in the archives of National Geographic Society. Has stunning pictures and again is really cheap for what it offers.

Finally, The Complete Cartoons of the New Yorker and The Complete New Yorker: Eighty Years of the Nation's Greatest Magazine are received very well by New Yorker readers.
