Years on and Other Travel Essays Lawrence F. Lihosit 1st edition

2011 PEACE CORPS WRITERS TRAVEL AWARD WINNER

 "A unique collection. The insights that the author has...make for an original travel book." Scott Donald, Hungry Feet Magazine

"A Moritz Thomsen-like 'path less traveled,' a Pete Hessler-esque possession of language and culture... the best and rarest of ex-pats: the Yankee gone native." Tony D'Souza, author of the critically acclaimed Whiteman

Years On and Other Travel Essays describes how the author hitchhiked along bleak Arizona highways, hacked a path through Honduras mountains in search of water, avoided caiman while riding bulls across flooded Bolivian savannah and grizzlies as he hunted caribou in bush Alaska, ran for his life after getting embroiled in Mexico City politics and more. These include twelve polished travel excerpts from four books and three pamphlets by the author, an unique glimpse of other lands from someone who lived and worked there.
