Perfect Gift or Holiday Read: Tales of a Vagabond DXer by Don Moore

Last week, I had the pleasure of posting the latest installment of Don Moore’s “Photo Album” series on the SWLing Post. Don has contributed numerous Photo Album travelogues over the past two years, offering readers a rich blend of history, culture, and radio-related adventures. This latest series focuses on Albania, with Part One posted last week and Part Two set to publish this coming Sunday.

It was while working on these articles that I was reminded of how much I enjoyed Don’s book, Tales of a Vagabond DXer.

If you’re a fan of radio or travel—or ideally both—this book is a must-read. Don masterfully weaves his experiences as a DXer with his extraordinary adventures in Latin America, where he visited over 150 radio stations. Beyond the technical and radio-related aspects, his storytelling captures the vibrant and often unexpected encounters that come with exploring remote regions.

Tales of a Vagabond DXer isn’t just a book for radio enthusiasts; it’s a compelling travelogue that anyone who loves the thrill of discovering new places will appreciate.  If you’re still looking for a unique gift this holiday season, I highly recommend adding it to your list!

Tales of a Vagabond DXer is available from Amazon.com in trade-sized paperback for $12.99 or Kindle eBook for $4.99, or for equivalent prices in local currencies on non-US Amazon stores.
