True Travel Tales

Taking along the many tough and uncompromising lessons learned together with the indispensable soul-saving brand of mining humour, Donald Keith stepped into the outside world of private commerce and worldwide travel--all of which was completely alien to him. True Travel Tales presents stories with self-effacing humour leading the way to mutual multicultural understanding and cooperation--with a little danger thrown in. Don't forget to take your values and principles with you; they are sure to serve you well wherever you go--my parents were right. ""A first-class cracking book which gives a witty and amusing insight into travel and business from 1960s onwards, very easy to read and identify with, complete with laugh-out-loud anecdotes and stories that resonate with anyone who has worked or travelled to the far-flung reaches, was impossible to put down and made an 11-hour flight to San Francisco a much more enjoyable experience.""
