Anyone vying for an escape after a long quarantine should look to New England — even if it’s from the comfort of your home while diving into the written word about the region’s iconic summers.

Stock up on all the knowledge you need before visiting or returning to the region with New England in a Nutshell, by Steve Jermanok.

Published travel and adventure writer, Jermanok sifts through more than 700 of his stories on New England’s finer qualities, from classic hikes and scenic drives to hidden gems, must-stay accommodations and foodie-centric stops along the way. Essentially, the book explores New England for you and distills the great wide open into a best-of-the-best list in the area.

Would-be travelers can pre-order here and check out New England in a Nutshell, available July 2.

Knowing no one in the travel industry was left unscathed from COVID-19, 50 percent of book sales go toward supporting the many businesses it highlights. Readers can simply email the author here confirming they purchased an e-book or hardcopy, and their name will be entered into various raffles for giveaways, which offer everything from a dinner for two at Woodman’s (also known as the restaurant where the fried clam was invented); vouchers for Summer Feet Cycling; a membership to the Peabody Essex Museum; or a weekend getaway at an author-recommended B&B like the Saltair Inn in Bar Harbor, Maine.
