If you can get past the religion stuff he tosses in, the descriptors of the trip will create a picture and make you feel part of the journey. Remember when books could create the places in your mind without seeing it in a movie? This is one of those books. Of other interest is his consistent mention of the fauna and wildlife; many of which will have you scrambling for google or a dictionary. This was my interest in reading the journal. Read the one two and three star reviews over at Amazon before picking up this book. It may not be for you.
