Karen Brown began her publishing venture at nineteen, when she began to spend time in France and Britain researching, writhing and publishing her first two titles. Books on Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Spain, Ireland and Germany followed with the enlisted aid of mother, Clare Brown, a former travel agent whose experience proved invaluable. June Brown, an English woman, no relation, was recruited to the staff.
