New book - The Camino

[jirit]

Well I guess it is time for me to toot my own horn

I have designed and built an interactive multi touch ebook based on most recent experience of walking the camino the second time. It is partly a travel memoir and partly a mini guidebook that gives first timers an insight into what it is like to walk the camino. For those people that have already done the camino, hopefully it allows you to relive your own personal experiences.

The ebook includes an online map of the route I took, plus numerous photos of places and people I met. It also includes titbits of relevant information that may be useful in order to prepare for the camino.

The ebook is simply called 'The Camino'. The book is available on 31 Apple stores worldwide:

I look forward to hearing back from readers who decide to download it.

Thanks for you for your support.

Yes I agree the pop out sections are a neat way to add additional material without having to break the flow of the story

I want to thank everybody that has downloaded and purchased a copy of my interactive ebook.

The response and initial sales after releasing the book in March has been very positive.

Will your book be available for Android anytime soon? I find it disappointing that so many apps are Apple only. There is a whole other world out there that isn't Apple.

That really depends on Google and what they decide to do with the Android operating system, which unfortunately does not support the level of interactive functionality that the iPad platform does.

Thanks, jirit.

The Camino is now a featured ibook on Apple's iBookstore.

If you have not had the opportunity to check it out, the book is an interactive photographic travel memoir based on my second walk along the Camino Frances.
