About this title

About the Author:

Adam Karlin was born in Washington, DC and raised two hours south of the city in Southern Maryland, where the Potomac and Patuxent rivers spill into the Chesapeake Bay. Besides field trips, he never properly explored the capital until he started covering crime and politics in nearby Prince George's County n this following a period of (still simmering) wanderlust, when he worked as a journalist and editor in every inhabited continent on Earth. Lonely Planet has generously helped him continue his expeditions, and he has worked on roughly 20 Lonely Planet guidebooks.
