I agree to the topic's message...but...who is a writer? Realeasing a book (and especially in that travel genre) - in my opinion - does not make you a (good/belletristic) writer.

But if it is just about writing for living / journalism and similar stuff, then yes, handbooks exists and do work.

ps: worked as journalist and studied literature, but don't feel like i could write books that come close to what i like to read.
