Gurkha and the Lord of Tuesday

If you want to experience the splendors of Europe, the magic of the Far East, and the mystique of Africa, from the comfort of your armchair, watch the Travel Channel. If, however, you want to read the honest, humorous, and occasionally pensive account of two overgrown kids tromping around the country on a mission, ingest this book. You will likely emerge older, wiser, and a few dollars poorer than when you began.
