Hi Bill,

I’m off to Chernobyl in a few weeks and so ordered your book on Amazon. I read it cover to cover over the last couple of days and I wanted to say how great I found it.

You strike a great balance between illustrating what I will see on my visit, whilst sharing the historic and human narrative of the disaster.

Thank you so much

When Chernobyl’s reactor 4 blew up in April 1986 the roof blew away, a million pounds of concrete. Fire filled the sky. The reactor’s graphite core, radioactive and deadly, burned like charcoal for ten days.

Visiting Chernobyl, framed by the author's visit, revisits the accident itself, relives the evacuation of the area, and discusses both the physical environs and the political circumstances of the Soviet Union at the time.

Written in the comfortable, easy-going style of Bill Murray’s adventure travel book Common Sense and Whiskey, Visiting Chernobyl is a quick, handy and accessible introduction to the worst nuclear accident in history, useful for those planning a visit and armchair travelers alike.

Bill Murray hs traveled to over 100 countries and territories (and counting) from Albania to Zimbabwe, and writes about them. His first book, Common Sense and Whiskey, is a collection of stories about off-the-beaten-path travel destinations. Bill's new ebook, Visiting Chernobyl, A Considered Guide for Travelers: What You'll See and What to Know, is now available. Bill and his wife Mirja maintain the photo web site EarthPhotos.com, featuring 15,000 photos from around the world and the travel blog CommonSenseAndWhiskey.com. Bill's wildlife photography has been published in Afar Magazine. They live on a horse farm in the southern Appalachian mountains of Georgia, USA.
