Hello all– As we enter the heart of summer, I'm sure many of you are heading to Europe hoping to experience the sliver of sunny weather some of its northern countries get each year. Some of you will head to idyllic Copenhagen, others to the fjords of Norway, but many travelers will sample Ireland's charms. If you're headed to Dublin and nervous about the food scene, never fear. Our third edition of the Eat Sheet is from Jessica Colley Clark and will help you navigate a city that is now seen as a culinary heavyweight. Closer to home is a report from Noah Kirsch that reminds us that the lives of the rich and famous aren't free from hassle. In his piece on the airport battle engulfing the Hamptons, Kirsch uncovers all the anger as air traffic has skyrocketed, ticking off many of its denizens. Rounding out a great week are two of our signature features. The first is from Brandon Withrow writing about Albuquerque for our It's Still a Big World series. Long seen as a mere stop en route to Santa Fe and with an unfortunate reputation for crime, Withrow finds the city full of unique and special experiences. Second, we have June's feature for our World's Most Beautiful Libraries series. This time it's the national library in Copenhagen with its iconic facade and unique approach to collecting. Enjoy! –William O'Connor, Travel Editor |

This Book Will Make You Think Airlines Are Sexy |
Rare is the person these days who thinks of airlines as sexy. Sure, Virgin brought some cool back, and some of the Middle Eastern and East Asian airlines can be luxurious. But the airlines are generally more utilitarian now. That wasn't always the case, which is why our series on gorgeous travel coffee table books (Just Booked) is highlighting the updated Airline Visual Identity: 1945-1975 by M.C. Huhne. Published by Callisto, the giant book is a spectacular collection of the ways in which airlines portrayed themselves in this glamorous 30-year period when flying, as Huhne writes, was "an extraordinary experience." Leaf through page after page of posters, advertisements, logos, and tickets from the major airlines of this period (think PanAm, TWA, United, SWISS, etc). The accompanying text has neat insights into everything from the original American Airlines logo (created by a divisional traffic manager) to the impressive origin story of United Airlines. It's a trip both for those who love airlines and their history and for anyone fascinated with branding and corporate design. Don't miss our other selections for our series on gorgeous travel-related coffee table books, Just Booked. |
