First prize is a trip for two to Patagonia, including round-trip flights and ground arrangements. The winning article will be published in the Bradt catalogue, and the Globe Pequot Press catalogue for the year 2000. It may also be published in a Bradt guide. The winner will be announced in December. Potential entrants can find the competition guidelines on the Bradt site.
Entries can be e-mailed.
Note that the deadline for entries is Oct. 31. Of course we intend to send a print after someone posed cheerfully for the photo, but after we get home there are so many other things to do, so many addresses on torn-out pages of exercise books. I now honor my promises. I was checking my group in to a beach hotel in Madagascar when the bellboy asked if he could speak to me. He looked nervous, so suspecting a problem with the bookings, I asked him to wait until everyone was in their rooms.
