Overview

This highly entertaining and tongue-in-cheek account of one journalist's travels through today's war-torn Middle East will give you lots of great advice and tips on how to go there yourself (and survive!) Although most of the text was written a decade ago, everything described here still applies. And if anything, things have gotten much worse. Planning to tour the Middle East any time soon? You will still desperately need this book! Learn how to avoid being chased by irate settlers with M-16s in Palestine; to stay clear of crowds of more than one million in Mecca; why you should always bring a flashlight to Kabul; and why it's important to bring your flak jacket to Baghdad. ""For some, Jane Stillwater might be an acquired taste,"" stated reviewer S.R Thornton. ""She has a gift for skewering the pompous with a phrase, of unabashedly pointing out which emperors lack clothes. She writes from a personal perspective and the chronicle of her overseas odysseys read like a combination of Mark Twain and Jack Kerouac. [This book is] for the seriously open-minded who enjoy a good chortle.""
