Better Than Fiction: True Travel Tales from Great Fiction Writers by Don George

4.0

The traveler’s tales genre is alive and well. This book has a little of everything—Antarctica, revolutions, disappearing resorts, death, that one preachy author, train escapes, mangoes. My favorite story was the guy who picked up a live shark off the beach in England to put it back in the sea—twice! He missed the first time! I read that one aloud and my whole family enjoyed it.
