For the first time ever in paperback…GET Booklist’s 2006 Best Travel Series of the Year.
What’s weird around here? That’s a question Mark Moran and Mark Sceurman have asked themselves for years. And it’s exactly their offbeat sense of curiosity that led the duo to create the phenomenal Weird N.J. and the successful series that followed. What’s NOT shockingly odd here: every Weird book has become a bestseller in its region. Now the weirdness is finally in paperback for the first time! Six titles—including Weird U.S., which covers all 50 states—will reach a fresh audience eager to get these cool collections at a more popular price and smaller size. Plus, there’s an exciting brand-new volume, covering the wonderfully weird state of Louisiana. • Twenty-nine volumes of the Weird series have been published to great success since Weird N.J.’s 2003 debut • The series has sold over one million copies…and counting
