I found that I enjoyed this book even with the annoying sexist parts. Chuck Thompson has a way with words and can be really funny at times. It was fun to see places that I've been to through his eyes and good to get a heads up about some of the places I haven't. Great cover graphics - look sharp!

Moderately amusing rehash
This book reads like what it clearly is, a rehash of old magazine articles. The irony is that the author claims to be writing what no travel magazine would dare publish. A few funny stories but mostly filler about what a rebel the author was back in the day. Most of us can get (and tell) the same tired stories after a couple of beers with the guys, so who cares? Blah. Avoid unless you are very bored or easily amused.
