Riassunto

The Irresponsible Traveller is a light but edgy collection of true tales about the stickiest situations in which travel writers and travel celebrities have found themselves over the years. From being chased by a sea lion to being accosted by Brazilian kidnappers, these are the scrapes they’ll never forget – whether entertaining, amusing or downright terrifying. Publishing to coincide with Bradt’s 40th anniversary, this collection of short stories comes from a hand-picked selection of contributors who have had special connections with Bradt over the years.

Wanderlust Magazine

'A tongue-in-cheek collection covering disasters that have happened to travel writers - but did not make it into the official guidebooks.'
Bookseller

'These stories are not the stuff travel brochures are made of, and are all the truer for it.'
National Geographic Traveller

'One of the most delightful travel books to be published in a generation. It reminds us that the joy of travel lies in the thrill of discovery when things, thankfully, don't go to plan.'
