Michael Palin did it right with this one. He has many wonderful adventures as he travels through regions that are not so familiar to many western viewers: Pakistan, Assam, Nepal, Tibet, and many others. Palin has a good time and the viewer does too. The cinematography is excellent.

Great Book
If you followed Michael Palin's travel show on television you know how entertaining he can be! John Cleese once called him the funniest man on the planet. If you, like myself, can't get enough Michael Palin in your life read this book. Best thing next to traveling with him yourself.
