Travels

xiii, 377 pp. A travel memoir by the author of Jurassic Park, Congo, Sphere, The Andromeda Strain, etc. Fueled by a powerful curiosity and the need to see, feel, and hear firsthand and close-up, Michael Crichton has experienced adventures as compelling as those he created in his books and films. These adventures -- both physical and spiritual -- are recorded here in Travels, Crichton's most astonishing and personal work.
