A wild ride on the madcap streets of Guatemala City. A twilight
walk through old Havana with a Cuban mailman. A canoe trip along
the Florida coast in search of a missing grave. An impromptu
communion with one of the twentieth century's forgotten heroes.
These are some of the adventures Stephen Benz describes in this
witty, insightful, and evocative collection of travel essays.
Benz, the author of "Guatemalan Journey" and "Green Dreams,"
takes readers to remote and exotic locales, introducing unusual
characters and recounting little known historical anecdotes. Along
the way, he reflects on the meaning of the atom bomb, describes the
hardships of daily life in the former Soviet Union, and tracks down
the ghosts of the infamous Donner Party.
Originally published in newspapers and magazines such as the
"Miami Herald" and the "Washington Post," these essays eloquently
inform and entertain both the armchair traveler and the general
interest reader.
