After serving in the RAAF and working as a staff TV comedy writer he sailed for Europe where he still lives. After several months on the road he conceived the idea for the Hitch-hiker’s Guide to Europe, which has been in print for seventeen years and is considered ‘the road-bum’s bible’. Though married with three children, he remains an insatiable traveller, paying his way with his work as a professional photographer. He estimates that during the last twenty years he has travelled over four hundred thousand miles. Ken Welsh is also the author or photographer, or both, of six travel books about Spain and one on Malta, and has published five novels. 5: K en Welsh 4 Hitch-hiker’s Guide - to Europe __ How to see Europe by the skin of your teeth ___ revised and updated for 1988-89 2 > rs First published by Pan Books Ltd 1971 Ninth edition first published by Fontana Paperbacks 1983 & Second impression February. 1984 _ Eleventh edition 1988 Copyright © Ken Welsh 1971, 1973, 1974, 1975, 1977, 1979, 1981, 1983, 1985, 1988 Set in 10 on 11pt Linotron Times Printed and bound in Great Britain by Vay William Collins Sons & Co.
