BRUCE NORTHAM is an independent travel journalist and author who has journeyed through more than 100 countries on seven continents. Northam speaks on freestyle travel via the Lordly & Dame speaker’s bureau at universities, corporate events and Governor’s Conferences on Tourism.
He’s the writer-at-large and travel columnist for The Improper Magazine, a New York-based monthly providing the “view askew” for 485,000 readers from Manhattan to Montauk; bulk of readers reside in the Hamptons and Manhattan. The former writer-at-large for Blue Magazine, Northam also contributes to National Geographic Traveler and Men’s Edge. He’s been anthologized in Travelers’ Tales and Chicken Soup for the Soul.
His third book, Globetrotter Dogma: 100 Canons for Escaping the Rat Race & Exploring the World, was cited by National Geographic Adventure as one of “Ten better choices: insightful travelogues that will inspire rather than dictate.” (Geographic’s list included The Travels of Marco Polo, by Marco Polo). He’s also the author of The Frugal Globetrotter, and In Search of Adventure: A Wild Travel Anthology.
Northam’s June 06 NEW YORK DETOUR is a meandering, 2000-mile odyssey from Niagara Falls to Montauk that’s sponsored by I LOVE NEW YORK and reinventing freestyle travel … because America needs to be celebrated, again. Departing Niagara Falls on June 7 and wandering overland to Montauk on June 29, Northam will utilize all modes of transport through scenic countryside, backroad villages, waterways, offbeat landmarks and cities, while unearthing unsung heroes of all ages. Accommodations include camping, shacking with locals, and five-star luxury.
His forthcoming book is 100 ROUTES TO WISDOM: A Globetrotter’s Discovery of Life Lessons in 100 Countries. (Media catchphrase: Author journeys through 100 countries in search of the paths to happiness.)
