Travels

From the author of Jurassic Park and Sphere comes a personal memoir full of fascinating adventures as he travels through many different places, from the Mayan pyramids to Kilimanjaro.   Fueled by a powerful curiosity and a need to see things firsthand, Crichton's trips have taken him on exhilarating adventures both familiar or exotic--swimming with mud sharks in Tahiti, tracking wild animals through the wilds of Rwanda. This is a record of those travels—an odyssey of risk and rejuvenation; it is also an adventure full of wonder and terror as exciting as his novels.
