. A Time of Gifts
City Travel Guides > Books > Books on Cassette
by: Patrick Leigh Fermor
1994-07
For a drop-out from English public school in that long-lost time of classical and European belle-lettres, Fermor shows an overwhelmingly informed perspective to those of us brought up in humbler classrooms in a more multicultural but ironically far less educated age. Amazing that a footloose teenager could bring such depth to a grand tour on foot, seeing Mitteleuropa on a pound or so a week and the advantage of lots of largesse from the peasants, fellow tramps, and more noble hosts he meets seemingly without fail.

. Pole to Pole
City Travel Guides > Books > Books on Cassette
by: Michael Palin
October 04, 1999
This time, avoiding the obvious too-much-time-at-sea problems of "Around the World in 80 days", Palin's team becomes a marvel of light travel and problem-solving in this somewhat dangerous, honest and good-natured tour of 1990 Eastern Europe and Africa. The music's better too. The best of his series, without a doubt, and possibly the best of this genre of travelogue.
