About this product
Product Information
In his latest collection of death-defying exploits and far-flung travels, "Outside" Magazine editor Tim Cahill visits the side of an active volcano in Ecuador, the Saharan salt mines and the largest toxic waste dump in the Western Hemisphere. He also ventures to find a Caspian tiger in Turkey and giant centipedes in the Congo. Cahill is one of the last great intrepid journalists, and his thirty wildly entertaining essays display sparkling wit and unstinting curiosity. When not on the move, he debunks hoary notions of the kindness of dolphins and ruminates on religion, death and the perplexing phenomenon of yoga. Charming, incisive and absolutely fearless, Cahill is the perfect travel companion.

Reviews
Praise for Tim Cahill "Tim Cahill is the working-class Paul Theroux. . . . He delights in finding stories too peculiar to be labeled merely off-beat." -The New York Times "Tim Cahill is one of those rare types whose fun quotient seems to increase in direct proportion to the diceyness of the situation." -San Francisco Examiner "Tim Cahill has the what-the-hell adventuresomeness of T. E. Lawrence and the humor of P. J. O'Rourke." -Condé Nast Traveler "Tim Cahill writes a wonderfully funny and observant book." -USA Today "Tim Cahill lives the life of adventure we all wanted when we were kids." -The Village Voice "Cahill's writing gets better all the time, his storytelling style evolving into an art form, his cracking-wiseass humor bevelled by every manner of nuance." -Kirkus Reviews
