Larry Krotz is a writer whose career has spanned decades and taken him all over the world. He was the Manitoba correspondent for The Globe & Mail, turning out almost a hundred columns for the Saturday edition of the newspaper. His work has appeared in the National Post, Walrus, Harrowsmith, Weekend Magazine, Western Living, Quest, the United Church Observer, Canadian Geographic, Saturday Night, Equinox, and Border Crossings, among others. With his production studio, Karante Productions, he made the independent films Rising to Dance (1987), South Indian Lake (1987), and Searching for Hawa’s Secret (1998). He is the author of multiple books, including Indian Country: Inside Another Canada (1990), Tourists: How Our Fastest Growing Industry Is Changing the World (1996), Piecing the Puzzle (2012) and Nothing Ordinary (2021).
Larry Krotz's book could easily have been titled The Thoughtful Traveler: one who boards trains, boats, or planes not only to get away but to reflect about the activity. To travel, Krotz tells us, is to be of two minds about travel, and that is not because being away sometimes denies us the comforts of home but because travel is a double-edged sword. Travel can be a positive and pleasurable experience, but it can also compromise locals and impact the global environment. There is no getting away from its nature. Krotz gently persuades us that we should not even try to avoid the tension but instead live with it and love it. --David Berlin, founding editor, ""Walrus"" magazine
