Review

"Crichton can give his narratives such an amusing and self-deprecating twist that it's hard not to be enchanted."

"These forays are evocative analogues of Crichton's sometimes turbulent inner evolution over the last twenty-five years."

"I was swept away not only by [Crichton's] richly informed mind, but his driving curiosity..."

Publisher's note

Often I feel I go to some distant region of the world to be reminded of who I really am.

When Michael Crichton -- a Harvard-trained physician, bestselling novelist, and successful movie director -- began to feel isolated in his own life, he decided to widen his horizons. He tracked wild animals in the jungles of Rwanda. He climbed Kilimanjaro and Mayan pyramids. He trekked across a landslide in Pakistan. He swam amid sharks in Tahiti.

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.

Annotation

Throughout his life, best-selling writer Michael Crichton has traveled for many reasons: research, fun, distraction, rejuvenation. In these essays, he chronicles many of those travels, as well as experiences from his years at Harvard Medical School and his spiritual life which he terms "inner travel."
